Summary
Give credit to Maryland: it's having its best start under Mark Turgeon. So how good are the Terps, though? Top-three good? Top-five good? Certainly top-10 good. Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander open the show by talking Maryland-Marquette, including Markus Howard going from scoring 51 points on Friday to only six on Sunday. Then, how about Florida State (16:00): the Noles are 7-1 and breaking through to make a case that the ACC has five on its top shelf, not four. The final segment is the ACC/Big Ten Challenge (30:00), which is highlighted Tuesday by Michigan-Louisville and Duke-Michigan State.

| 0:47.8 | They all lost as double-digit favorites. |
