March 24, 2010

Elon Hands Clemson First Home Loss – Midweek games can play right into an underdog’s hands and – once again – that proved to be the case on Tuesday, March 23, as eight different teams that were listed (at the time) in the CB360 top-50 Composite National Rankings were victims of upset (note that the CNR has been updated for this week, to be posted soon, and some of the teams listed below may no longer be among the top-50).

Elon registered the most noteworthy upset by winning 15-10 at #5 Clemson (the first home loss of the season for the Tigers), while the University of the Pacific – led by former big-leaguer and Stanford alum Ed Sprague – knocked off the #16 Cardinal, 9-4. Central Florida chipped in with a key in-state victory (6-3 at #20 Miami) and #34 Northwestern (La.) State won at #23 Texas A&M, 4-2, in a matchup of fellow top-50 teams.

Tuesday other upsets of top-50 teams included: at Arizona 10,  #29 New Mexico 4 … at Oral Roberts 7,  #32 Wichita State 1 … at Loyola Marymount 4,  #36 Cal State Fulleton 2 … and at Campbell 15,  #48 North Carolina State 10. Note that Arizona has vaulted back into the CNR this week (at #25), with the win over UNM not even factoring into that top-25 status. 

In addition the Northwester St.-A&M game mentioned above, there were four other games on Tuesday with top-50 teams facing off: at #4 Texas 5,  #22 Rice 1 … #14 Coastal Carolina 7,  at #35 The Citadel 1 … #18 Mississippi 11,  #39 Southern Mississippi 6  (Pearl, MS) … at #9 TCU 4,  #47 Texas State 0. There’s were a total of 32 games on Tuesday’s top-50 docket, involving 27 of the top-50 teams (some links for team info. and live coverage inclued below; recap links may be added later).
