Tom Selleck's doppelgänger tried to drag his way back into the Game of the Week. Villanova's Maalik Wayns (23pts, 2reb, 7ast, 1stl) and Tennessee's Jeronne Maymon (18pts, 9reb, 2ast, 2stl) had solid Saturday outings.


But the story of the day came out of Bloomington, where Indiana shocked top-ranked Kentucky behined a buzzer-beating 3-pointer by Christian Watford (20pts, 5reb, 1ast, 1stl) from Sutton & Sons Saloon and Pharmacy. In addition to his game-winner, Watford completely shut down Terrence Jones (4pts, 1reb, 1ast, 2blk, 1stl), ending Tom Selleck's doppelgänger's chances in the Game of the Week.

Week 2's Player of the Week, North Carolina's John Henson (24pts, 10reb, 2ast, 4blk, 1stl) double-doubled against Long Beach State, while helping Gordon Bombay keep winless Chocolate Thunder at arm's length.

Boiler Up, Hammer Down's pair of Big East forwards, Seton Hall's Herb Pope (26pts, 14reb, 1ast, 1blk) and Marquette's Jae Crowder (21pts, 7reb, 1ast, 2blk, 3stl) combined for 75+ fantasy points. Boiler Up's opponent, McDonnell's All-Americans has only averaged 95 points over the last two weeks.

Mississippi State had the inside-outside game working for The Phoggy Doggs. Dee Bost (28pts, 3reb, 9ast, 1blk, 1stl) sunk seven 3-pointers, while Arnett Moultrie (20pts, 12reb, 5ast, 1stl) relentlessly crashed the boards in the #18 Bulldogs' 106-68 blowout win over Troy. Ad astra per aspera, also struggling to score, just couldn't recover from the knockout blow.

Here's a look at the current scoreboard.
