A few notes on yesterday's games.
--What the hell happened to LSU? It's 32-32 at halftime. I'm watching the Penn/OSU game, and so I can see the scores flashing by at the top of the screen. Purdue's up 34-32. 36-42. 40-32. 45-32. I have LSU rolling to the Elite Eight in one bracket, the Final Four (What the hell was that all about?) in a nother. And I can't stand Purdue or Gene Keady. So this really stunning. Finally, after Purdue is up 16 at 48-32, LSU actually scores. What a collapse! Rare to get a total blowout in the 8/9 game like that.
--Central Michigan is going to beat Duke today, so Kansas won't have to play Duke in the Sweet 16 after we put the beatdown on ASU today. I'm staying up until 3:30 AM to watch the KU game, so if AFN doesn't show it, I'm going nuclear.
--Wake really should not have won that game. Fortunately for them, they now get to play "How the hell did we get into this tournament, anyway?" Auburn. Kudos to Josh Howard from Wake for actually having an opinion about the war, right or wrong.
--Boy, I would have REALLY been screwed in my brackets if Maryland had lost. Thanks, Drew Nicholas.
--How are the Big Ten and the Big East undefeated? What in the world? Unfortunately, Notre Dame and Illinois play each other, so they can't all lose in Round 2. Though I'm pretty sure Wisconsin will beat Tulsa.
--This just in: Dick Vitale believes that Hollis Price is tough and won't let his team lose. Also, he likes UConn's athleticism, and is willing to talk about it even when the question posed to him is about the 1-8 game in the West bracket.
--Missouri-Marquette has got to be the game of the day today, excepting Central Michigan's impending blowout upset of Duke.
