Thought it would be interesting to have a thread about oddities that have or are occurring in college basketball this year.  Was initially prompted by Rutgers being in the tournament despite having only 1 victory away from home this year.  Not sure thats ever occurred.  It may not this year because while I think Rutgers is in, if they don't win another game, they will be sweating it out next weekend.

Other odd things about this season.

- On 11/12, Kentucky was ranked #1 and lost to mid major Evansville.  Evansville went on to post a 0-18 record in conference and lost their opening round tourney game.  Can't say I've ever seen a team beat the #1 ranked team in the nation and not win a single game in their conference.

- UCLA is currently tied for first in the P12, yet are squarely on the bubble.  Remains to be seen how the next week plays out, but its conceivable that a major conference regular season champion could miss the NCAA tourney.  Doubt that has happened since the tourney went to a 64/68 team field.
