Four things:
1) FSU is not a Quad 4 team regardless of their record. They're a more than decent team; their coach called a critical timeout in the early part of the game (15-5), and the adjustments they made were reflected in the final score
2) Until the whole Quad 1-4 came into the NCAA Basketball jargon, a loss at home felt bad, regardless of who Pitt played that day. A "good loss" versus a "bad loss" is still a loss, but with the metrics used to determine who's in/out come tournament time, Pitt better hope that FSU's record keeps getting better
3) After watching the game, I agree now with several posters that the Oakland Zoo is a shell of its former self despite the large turnout of students. I'm hope those who have been regular ticket holders over the past decade or so will comment. The Zoo was never the equal of the Cameron Crazies but they weren't far off
4) TCU loses to WVU, who at the time had yet to win a conference game, and the goes on to beat #2 Kansas, on the road, by double digits
The only predictable thing about NCAA men's basketball is the unpredictability
