1. It didn't feel like a blowout, play by play, but the final score is no lie: UConn squashed the Dukies to win the Paradise Jam with ease. Moore and Greene blocked shots, Moore and Thomas took charges, and a good time was had by all the Huskies-- and by their cluster of well-traveled fans.

2. Also at the University of the Virgin Islands, Stanford canned Temple to take the Jam's consolation prize. Wiggins scored 22 (but went 0-7 from downtown) as the Cardinal came back from far behind.

3. The Terps ran into trouble at UCLA, but managed another big comeback. Marissa Coleman said yesterday's match reminded her of the time her team won it all: "It was very similar to that, being down by double digits with 10 minutes left to go. I think it just shows the character of this team."

4. In yet another big comeback, Baylor rallied at home to beat Cal by double digits. Bears coach Boyle called the back end of that game "the worst half of basketball we've played all year"; Bears coach Mulkey says her winning team "jump started."

5. Ohio State fell to Auburn despite frosh Jasmine Jantel Lavender's big night. (Thanks to Paul for the correction.) Has any team in the Big Ten won a game of national interest yet this year?
