Yeah, so much for the Big Ten being the nation' best basketball conference this year. They still were. The NCAAs being used as the be-all end-all measure for conferences is an annual source of annoyance for me.
I'm down to half my Final 4 and half my Elite 8. Only chance left at a semi-respectable bracket is to get the two title-game teams (Louisville and Florida) right.
Looks like brother Luke out there tonight. So the world (and by the world I mean the East Coast media) will get one more "true Big East" game after all.
I am going back to MLBTV this year after having EI last year. It's having its issues on my work Mac, but works great on my PC at home. I've heard great things about the picture quality on PS3 too, but I haven't had a chance to check that out yet.
I know it's a Catholic university and such a thing is frowned upon, but someone really needs to hold a "how to use protection" seminar with these players when they get here.

My wife, who knows less than nothing about college basketball, got 11 of the Sweet 16 correct (assuming Duke wins) while I got 9, and unlike me has her Final Four intact. I'm doing something wrong.
Those unis being ruined so you 'have' to wear last year's jerseys (the ones that don't look like ass) is the best possible thing that could have happened to UM jersey-wise.
It's one thing to lose, it's quite another to hand the [expletive] game to your opponent in the first round every year. ND has looked like slightly better than dog [expletive] exactly one time in the last decade in an NCAA tournament game. It's pathetic.
ND, Pitt and Georgetown should never be picked in round 1 of any tournament until they prove they can win the games. This is an absolute [expletive] show.
