Default How Much Cold Can A Tomato Take?

Well, wouldnt you know it. The weather has been mild all winter long so I went out last weekend and got some plants in the ground. Since then, temps have been near freezing, forcing me to go out every night and cover them. Does anyone out there have any feeling as to how cold a tomato plant can take? I realize that plant size and the length of cold has a lot to do with it. I guess its a good thing I have an extra 300 plants coming on if these dont make it.
