They did take out St. Mary's and Gonzaga on back to back nights. Still though, I smell an 0-for-3 day for the WCC.


Ummm, oops. :nonono: Props to San Diego. A 12 and 13 seed now battle in round 2.

UConn shouldn't need Price to beat a team like USD. UConn and Syracuse have really fallen off as Big East powers. Look at UConn's last three years; they've lost in the round of 32, failed to qualify for the NIT and now lost in the first round.

Does any team benefit more from their home court than Vanderbilt? They are completely unmasked whenever they have to leave Nashville.

Good luck getting past Stanford, who I have your Longhorns losing to. Even then, how about Memphis. And UCLA. Not happening.

I apologize to anyone watching the Oregon/Mississippi State game for having to sit through the most horrendous display of second-half basketball the NCAA tournament may ever see. The Ducks had no heart and showed it out there in a huge way. On to next year...

Some great, great games. I'm sad I missed WKU/Drake. San Diego/UCONN was a lot of fun (and gleefully exciting to see UCONN lose).

Don't be so sure. I have Stanford losing to Marquette, and Memphis losing to Michigan State, and then UCLA losing to Texas, in Houston.

Saying 'not happening' during March Madness ... is exactly why they play these games.
