So it turns out there were upsets. And damn it if one of them didn’t knock one of my Final Four teams out (UNC). Of course Bradley, George Mason, and Wichtita State are great stories. They are teams that probably shouldn’t have gotten out of the first round and here they are in the Sweet 16. So what are the other big stories of the tournament besides the upsets? Well, i’d have to say that the utter failure of the Big Ten is pretty big. Kansas getting bounced in the first round, that’s pretty big because they came into the tourney as one of the hottest teams.
I’m starting to get worried that this is going to be a very vanilla NCAA tournament. That will be too bad. I think there are potentially some really interesting angles. For one, JJ Redick and Adam Morrison could meet (of course I mean their team’s could meet) at the Final Four. I think it’s fairly rare to have the 2 best players in the country meet at the Final Four. I think that would be fun. What are some of the story lines or players that you think will have a big impact on the rest of the tournament?
BTW. The rest of my Final Four (previously mentioned: Duke, UNC) is Florida and Gonzaga. We’ll see how that goes. Yikes.
As for the First Annual Vigilante Sports NCAA Bracket Challenge, heading into the Sweet 16, PWill21 is still in the lead (34 correct games). He has quite a few people right on his heels. It should all come down to the finals. So, PWill21, hold on tight, I think there are some folks knocking at the door.
