The volume of one night

If you're still reverberating from this night, you're not the only one.

First Tennessee retired Candace Parker's jersey (the sixth the school has hung from the rafters). Then #16 LSU upset the #5 team, 80-77.

Unbeaten and unranked Indiana took down #22 Iowa, 86-84. (What does it take to get a ranking?)

Vanderbilt downed #19 Georgia, 66-58.

Then there were a cluster of almost-upsets:

#13 South Carolina 55, Arkansas 51 - the first loss of the year for the Razorbacks.

#18 Nebraska 66, Northwestern 65.

#10 North Carolina 74, James Madison 71.

#11 Oklahoma State 67, Texas 61.

Then we had the amazing performance of Baylor guard Odyssey Sims, who dropped 40 in her team's rout of Kansas State.

Still unbeaten after big wins tonight:

#14 Iowa State, and unranked San Diego (see comments on Indiana).

Full scoreboard.
