Of course I was hoping for Michigan-Michigan State in the championship. Busted. As usual.
Sigh.
#1 Florida plays #7 UConn and #2 Wisconsin plays #8 Kentucky on Saturday. None of the double-digit seeds made it to the last weekend.
It's not as if the Michigan teams gave up. MSU started out unable to score, but lead for a while, but not when it counted.
What fun. More anon with the women. I think the Lady Cardinal of Stanford got through today. The Last Tigers of LSU did not.

UPDATE: Meanwhile the Battle of the Carolinas in the Women's Sweet 16... #4 N.Carolina-65 #1 S.Carolina-58. Hmm... UNC is the Tar Heels, so we get the Lady Tar Heels -- at least by the old convention. I believe USC is the Gamecocks. So... do we get the Lady Gamecocks? The Lady Cocks? The Gamehens? And have they changed it in more modern times? I wonder.
