Temple beat the stuffing out of St. Bonaventure, 109-70, which made Philly.com blogger Kris Gochenour very happy. We had this from Line of the Day regular Mark Tyndale:

We also apparently had Dustin Salisbery on the bench in the second half wearing a neck brace, which isn't good (UPDATE: Strained neck). But he did score 21 points in 21 minutes: 7-12 FG, 3-7 3pt and 4-4 FT.
Meanwhile, up at Tom Gola, La Salle led Duquesne 105-104 with 45 seconds to play, but gave up seven free throws without making a field goal thereafter to lose, 111-105. Five Explorers scored in double figures, led by Darnell Harris:

Duquesne had 88 possessions, La Salle had 87. St. Bonaventure-Temple was pretty frenetic too, with both teams registering 71 possessions.
I wonder what Bill Raftery would have been like calling games like those.
