So much for Kansas' difficult Sweet 16 match up -- they will get either Morehead or Richmond those lucky Jayhawks.
Let's go Oakland! Memphis!
I only got to see one replay but I thought Faried might have hit Marra's left arm on the way up. Just figured I'd ask what other folks saw, not a foul or not a foul because of the time left on the clock? The swallow the whistle/let them play philosophy is a major pet peeve of mine.

Vandy gets a pass from me because they beat the heels this year. So I am good, especially since this means Richmond is better than UNC!
On a serious note, that is quite the resume. Losing to 3 different "little guys" in back to back to back years? That is bizarre!
So far this year's tourney has not disappointed. Upsets and buzzer beaters. March Madness at its finest!
KU struggled a bit for 30 of 40 minutes against Boston U (who is a nice team, one of the better 16 seeds I've ever seen). But honestly this could be KU's "closest" game til the Elite 8. They will crush UNLV or Illinois because they will be ready to play, then play Richmond or Morehead St (laughable). From the bottom of the bracket, I think FSU is the only team that could give them trouble cuz they match their size and strength and are athletic. Plus their D is great.
KU's road to the final 4 is turning into the friendly skies as they fly right over the first 4 rounds.
Georgetown goes down yet again. Seems like they have a history of running into Cinderellas.
Personally, I think Florida St will beat Notre Dame tonight. VCU is pounding Purdue early in the 2nd half. If these two things happen then KU's road to the final 4 will have a #10, 11 and 12 seed left. Wow, that must be nice
VCU is doing a number on Purdue! Makes some of the talking heads look silly.
Including Jay Bilas. I like Jay, but I have to say I was really tired of hearing him and the others complain last Sunday that VCU was in and Virginia Tech wasn't. I guess that's because I dislike Virginia Tech even more than I like Jay. Thanks for giving me the pretense that I was being reasonable last Sunday, VCU!
No soup for you!
Well I really have enjoyed Bilas this year b/c he seems to be speaking more of his mind and I almost feel like I'm just repeating what he says, but I tend to agree with most of what he says.
And his response, is that what you do in the tournament does little to justify being selected. Now winning 3 games is different and certainly impressive but getting hot at the right time certainly doesn't necessarily justify them getting in. It is almost like saying Butler should have been a 1 seed last year.
Did not see that VCU-Purdue outcome coming at all.
