Pretty much this has beena tournament which has produced winners which I neither predicted nor like too much. Cincinnati choking again, like always, to UCLA. Gonzaga screwing my bracket by losing to Wyoming first-round (had them in the regional final), Ohio State bowing out, Duke losing, Marquette losing first round, Kansas winning...........it just sucks.
Some of those results I blame on the TERRIBLE seeding job done by the tournament selection commitee. If Gonzaga hadnt been given a 6 seed they wouldve palyed a team a lot worse than Wyoming (can we say reversal of fortunes with Wyoming as a dark horse that could upset somebody?) they probably might still be playing. I think they were just so shocked and upset about their seeding and it translated to horrible shooting in the NCAA.
Also, UCLA had to be the best 8th seed. This is a team that was ranked like 4th in the preseason and Cincy had to take them 2nd round. That's pretty tough. Missouri was ranked very high in the beginning of the season and was a 12 seed in the tourney.
Two things I'm happy about were Kent State & Southern Illinois. In my bracket, I had Kent State making the Elite Eight and losing to Duke. I also had SIU taking out Texas Tech, Georgia, and them bowing out to UCONN. At least I had that right. It sucks that KSU couldnt make the final four like I thought after seeing Duke lose. I felt like they would be there. I knew about this team a lot and the MAC is a good conference. This team knew how to win and unfortunately ran into a 3 pt barage last night. Damn, Ive never seen shooting like that. Gotta give IU credit even though I hate them (This is not racist, but Mike Davis cant even speak proper English). Stan Heath was a great coach and did a great job. Huffman is a class act. I hope he gets drafted.
Also, the final four consists sucks. I dont like Kansas and was hoping theyd lose early. I saw them roll the Oregon Fighting Whities today (Ducks
). Man, those Luke pot-heads can ball. Frederick Jones gets you out of your seat with some of his plays. I liked how they played.
My teams never win. It's always disappointment. I hate it. For once can't I get my wish?

That sucks, but I realize its inevitable. I think he'll do a great job and will support him. If anybody is an Arkansas fan, I can tell you are getting a class act with Stan Heath.
