Could really use a 4-0 start today. Texas and Ole Miss have me most worried of pulling upsets. Just don't see GT falling in this position again.

Well, he might as well be on TV because it's not like he's done anything productive in March for the last two seasons.

Jones back in for a bit, but he is favoring his wheel and probably hurting more than helping?

Is he a senior? Good! I was just going to write about how envious I am of his game - would love to have a guy like him on our squad (as would any team though)

Told the guys at my player draft Tuesday night(vast majority not MU fans) that Butler would win this game because they were just tougher than Texas. They all laughed at me. SUCK IT!!!!

Way to go Butler! Now on to Xavier.

Butler prevails. Big 12 now 0-3. Alex Barlow huge in this game with 8 really tough rebounds along with his floor game. Another guy that Butler will really miss.

I like St. John's. SDST can't score.
Dayton playing in Columbus worrys me, but if Providence play there game, they should win.

St John's without Obekpa could struggle. Already short bench gets shorter.

Six of those points came from two banked-in three pointers. SDSU playing right into the Johnnies hands by taking perimeter jumpers and not stopping Pointer in transition.

I don't understand what Providence is doing at all. They excel when they create turnovers and crash the glass. They've been sitting back in zone all game and Dayton has been getting wide open looks all night.

Horrible game for Henton and Dunn. Also, the Friar zone really sucked. DesRosiers also has been a total non-factor against a small Dayton team.

Providence played like crap, but having to play a worse seed on the road and god-awful refs did not help their cause. If Dunn comes back, Providence will kick some major ass next year.

That T on Cooley was absolutely ridiculous! Why do refs lack such obvious common sense?

Regardless, they played horribly/Dayton completely took them out of their game. Very, very impressive by Dayton.

Is going to be interesting to see what Dunn does this summer. If he goes, paired with the loss of Henton, they will fall back to the pack in the BE next year.
