PrintI've got Syracuse, Washington, K-State, and Kentucky tonight. And no, Washington was not in my original bracket.
How about you?

Damn. You made a great call there.
How’d your test go?

I was wrong on Washington, too.
They gave WVU a game for a while, though.

Eh,
the test was OK. I was studying till 3:30, but I think I only manage a B on it. We’ll see, sometimes I do better on these things than I think.
I’m working a baseball preview right now…
FWIW, I’m now tied for first in my bracket after starting the day in 13th (out of about 60).

That call on Butler could have made your bracket...
Not many people have Butler in their Elite Eight.
Hope you ended up OK with the test.

I have K State in my final 4.
as long as they make it, and Kentucky wins the whole thing, I think I’m golden.

Well, K-State is in dogfight...
Kentucky game is close, too, but I expect them to pull away at some point.

Cornell scored 16 in the first half...
What does that say about Kentucky’s defense?

I'd like to see a little more of this KSU game, myself.

Yeah. That was beyond stupid. Can you think of something you'd rather not do with a three-point lead?
I mean, give them the two, and make sure you get a hand up on the three. I don’t even see why they were playing him so tight as he passed midcourt.

Great game though. Lots of lead changes down the stretch. Clutch shots.

Re: Kentucky...
Did anyone expect such a low-scoring game?
Garnet and Black Attack: A Blog by and for Gamecocks Fans.
I either expected a UK blowout or a high-scoring shootout.

Yeah, I was just noticing that, myself.

All the foul trouble KSU is in does not bode well for over times.
Do players get fouls back in over time?

Meaning, K-State wants to end this thing, quick.

Well, that might do it...
Xavier had that one. Wide-open shot.

And then K-State misses a FT

LOL. Only this time...
It really matters. It’s not some Tar Heel dunking over a 5’11 forward playing for UNC-Wilmington.

K-State is killing themselves at the FT line.

I really don't see how Kentucky can't be the favorite now.
I have trouble seeing Duke as a real contender. Maybe I’m wrong.
