    I think Davidson gives GT a game and I really think USC makes a run, not sure how far they will go, but at least 2 wins.

    Also, for all the hype over Mayo vs. Beasley, dont forget about Mayo vs. Walker. The two played together in HS and AAU and would have likely played together at KSU if Huggy bear was still there.

    Bill Walker almost has as many points as USC with 14

    Awesome game so far. Selection committee definitely screwed these teams by making them play each other in the first round but it is a damn good game.

    Anybody else here that about Canada having more players in D1 than any other country (besides the States, of course), with 65?

    That's gotta be a good thing.

    I did hear that and was very surprised

    Did anyone else hear Billy Packard say "two wide guys that are long"

    Davidson tripping over their own feet on an inbounds pass. Nice.

    Davidson "upsets" Gonzaga. Curry is simply amazing.

    Brian Butch is a talented big man. If he was a freshmen playing this good he would be talked about but just blommed to late.

    Bill Walker is a beast too.
