Three ranked teams lost last night.

The Other Huskies beat Utah in Seattle: the home team's defense stifled Utah's shooters. Washington's Cameo Hicks pulled down 14 boards; Utah's Kim Smith shot only 7-of-16. UW coach June Daugherty: ""I tell you what, that was like burning the Thanksgiving turkey. It was darn ugly."

Texas Tech are 1-3 after losing at Ole Miss. The Red Raiders got hammered on the boards, 42-28; Erin Grant missed a buzzer-beater that would have tied it.

In perhaps the night's biggest surprise, Long Beach State took out USC, 51-46: the first half ended with a 17-17 tie. The 49ers forced USC into 21 turnovers; Jamie Hagiya had 3 assists to 4 TOs.

Slovy says Long Beach State's win is not really an upset. But anyone who saw this game might think it was.
