LOL. Are you a long horn? I had texas loosing in my bracket but I thought it could go either way.
As I said before though duke and missou loosing to fifteen seeds was historical as far as the NCAA tourney is concerned.
There had only been four teams with a two seed bit in the tourney that got put out by their fifteen seed opponents in the history of the tournament.
So for it to happen again and then twice in one night was unbelievable. Alot of folks are going to be throwing their brackets away after that.
Missou was bitching about how they should have gotten a number one seed bit too. LOL!!
Also syracuse damn near lost the first round too! That would have been the very first time in the history of the tourney that a number one seed lost to a number sixteen seed. Syracuse's forward could not maintain a c average and was dubed ineledgable to play in the tourney though and that is why they almost lost. They will not go as far as they should have gone now due to the loss of their 7 ft star player.
This ofcourse is all good news for my team and home state kentucky who are the over all favorites to win the whole tourney with an over all number one seed.
GO BIG BLUE!!!!
