Up six at Gonzaga with like 12 minutes left.

Double-edged sword in terms of Purdue NCAA Tournament implications since BYU could go a long way toward earning an at-large if they win on the home floor of a potential No. 1 ssed, but I'd say it would be more good than bad for Purdue if the Cougars win.

This win would go a long way toward getting BYU into the RPI top 50, FWIW - they're 56th currently - and might help turn that game into the quality win we all figured it would be when it happened.

Another good thing for Purdue: Vandy beat Alabama today for its third straight win. They were 109 in the RPI before. If they can crack the top 100 that would kill a bad loss from Purdue's paper résumé.

Also, Kansas State beat Iowa State today, which will help ensure they stay in the top 100 in the RPI.
