Yeah, we struggled so much more than UCLA. Please.

What I'm getting at is that you're more likely to lose to a worse team that's a rival than a worse team that you play once every 5 years.

That just makes my point. KU and UNC easily beat their 2nd round opponents. UCLA and Memphis struggled.

That's because Memphis and UCLA are the reeruns of the #1 seeds.

And what is your point? Survive and advance.

Kansas also beat their 2nd round opponent by more than Florida did last year.

My point is that Memphis and UNC should be on one side of the bracket and UCLA and KU on the other. The way its setup now I think the possible UNC vs KU matchup will be better than whoever the winner will play in the final.

I thought it was funny that Joey Dorsey was whining about some exit door opening - which let sun shine through. Aha.

kstater · 03-23-2008, 05:19 PM

ooooh Have a chance.

kstater · 03-23-2008, 05:19 PM

Almost. UP just had a coronary.

Ceej · 03-23-2008, 05:20 PM

And Memphis gets a good win. Bad FT shooting almost led to OT.

Ultra Peanut · 03-23-2008, 05:20 PM

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew.

That is a pretty satisfying way to win, though.
