    Let's go Morehead St!

    I got Kansas and Louisville in the Elite 8. Louisville takes it.

    Same, except I got KU taking it, regardless Memphis beats either

    Wake Forest is the most intesresting team in this region. They have the talent to take it, or they could lose to Cleveland State. As far as the Blazers and the draft goes, Mullens and Turner from Ohio State are two of the players I'm most interested in watching.

    Yeah, Wake is very young, so that could explain why they're somewhat inconsistent. I really want to see them meet Zona in the 2nd round to see some of those match-ups. Mullens and Turner are both pretty good, I haven't seen either play much but I hear good things about them.

    Apparently Mullens wasn't as good as expected, but still did well winning the sixth man award in the big ten IIRC

    Here's what I've got...

    First Round

    #1 Louisville defeats #16 Morehead State by 25 points: This game is never close, it's a blowout all the way through.

    #8 Ohio State defeats #9 Siena by 7 points: The game is not as close as the final score dictates. OSU controls the pace.

    #5 Utah defeats #12 Arizona by 10 points: Arizona has not had a good team in a while, and they get handled here.

    #4 Wake Forest defeats #13 Cleveland State by 16 points: Wake has show flashes of brilliance, I think they show up in this one.

    #6 West Virginia defeats #11 Dayton by 5 points: WV isn't great, but they're good enough to take care of Dayton.

    #3 Kansas defeats #14 North Dakota State by 28 points: This is a hammering. Kansas has surprised alot of people, they will continue to do so.

    #10 USC defeats #7 Boston College by 2 points in OT: This will be close, but I think USC has the edge.

    #2 Michigan State defeats #15 Robert Morris by 15 points: This will be a confidence booster for MS. They haven't been accustomed to blowing people out this year, but it's Tom Izzo! He gets his guys to play better down the stretch.

    KU vs NDS is a really good game so far. It's a battle of the point guards, with 12 minutes left Collins has 19 points and Woodside has 22.

    KU up 5, Woodside has 25 (and going to the line) and Collins has 23 with 8 minutes left.

    Woodside is the guy who had a 60 point game earlier this year

    I would say KU is slowly starting to pull away but the last time I thought that NDS came back. With the two Cole FT's KU has a 10 point lead. If they just tighten up the D a little and keep feeding Cole they should win by double digits.

    Whata game. Pretty good opening game for the Kansas freshmen. Cole and Sherron were awesome.

    Pretty good game from what I saw, Woodside-Collins going at it was pretty fun to watch too.

    I really came down to Aldrich. Dude was huge today. Big 15 5-0 So far. Nice. Mizzou can make it 6-0.

    Atta Boy Daaayyyttonn! I knew I should of picked them, they just gave me that gut feeling but I bought into the "Big East Dominance" theory everyone was talking about...WATCH OUT KANSAS!

    If Kansas plays their game, getting Cole involved, they shouldn't have a problem.
