8 SWEET SIXTEEN GAMES TODAY AND TOMORROW, LETS BREAK IT DOWN

   Hello-Everybody, so does your NCAA bracket look like S--t, don't worry most eveyone's does, but I'm willing to bet your still in the running to win the whole thing (unless of course you had Pitt "oops").  The pool I'm in, has three tied for first with 44 points including yours truly, and that my friends is a low first place total, (64) possible. Who had Butler beating Pitt? ya thats right the kid had it!!!. How about Butler, they loose Gordon Hayward and still come back this year and make the sweet sixteen, but that all ends tonight against wisconsin.

Here's tonights four match ups......

3 U CONN vs 2 SDSU 7:15 all times eastern

3 BYU vs 2 Florida 7:27

5 Arizona vs Duke 9:45

8 Butler vs Wisconsin 9:57

MY TAKE......   It will be to much Kimba Walker for U CONN, over SDSU whose fairy tale season comes to a end.

BYU and Jimmer (I aint havin sex during the season Fredette) and the cougars just to hot for Fla in a close one.

You add Kyrie Irving to a all ready strong Duke team, they win going away vs AZ.

Butler's dream ends here against Wis, who is to big and strong for the Bulldogs to handle tonight.

Fridays matchups

11 Marquette vs 2 UNC 7:15

12 Richmond vs 1 Kansas 7:27

4 Kentucky vs 1 Ohio St. 9:45

11 VCU vs 10 Florida ST. 9 :57

MY TAKE......

 UNC better take care of the basketball tonight against a talented and athletic Marquette team and not get down early like in the ACC tournament. If they minimize there turnovers and take advantage of their lenght (Henson and Zeller) they should move on.

The Love affair for the Richmond Spiders comes crashing down tonight. Kansas by 20..................

Might be the game of the year tonight. There are probably 5 or 6 first round draft picks playing in this game, led by Player of the Year candidate Jared Sullinger. Take a coin and flip it, its going to be a good one (I took Kentucky in my bracket).

What a great game no one cares about, the reason, "no one has either of these freakin teams in this game lol".
I'll tell you why you should watch this game. Joey Rodriguez, VCU point guard. He can handle it, shoot it, and dish it. VCU gets to the final 8........

Enjoy the games everyone and I'll talk to you about the final 4 next week!!!

GOOOOOOOOOOOO Kansas (guess who I got to win it all)

THE ACC TOURNAMENT IS UP FOR GRABS, ANYBODY CAN WIN IT. ALRIGHT WHO AM I KIDDING ITS GONNA BE UNC VS DUKE IN THE FINAL.

   The ACC tournament starts Thursday in Greensboro, and all I can say is, same ol same ol. Come Sunday at 1:00 pm at the old barn, its gonna be UNC vs Duke for the ACC championship (and by the way you don't beat coach K. twice in one week, Duke by 10). For you Wolf Pack fans, 15 and 15 NC State ( please fire Lowe) plays Maryland at 7 pm Thur in the third play in game of the day (the winner plays on fri in the quarters against Duke) so unless they step it up against the Terps on Thursday they will finish with a losing record and done for the year. The only teams playing well enough to compete against the Tar Heels or the Blue Devils are Florida State, Virginia Tech and Clemson ( Florida State has the best chance, 11-5 in conference and a first round draft pick in Chris Singlelton, 6-9 225, keep a eye on him during the tourney.

   This is one of the best weekends of the year to live in the Triangle area because of how people love to watch the ACC tournament. The bars will be packed, companies let people off work early because they know if they didn't, a lot them would call in with the 48 hour flu (Thursday Friday) and great weather. So get all your work related stuff done by noon on thursday, find a sports bar (If you do, your bound to find me) order a cold one and enjoy the games everyone....
