Not that it mattered for the game, but apparently the NCAA fucked up WVU's charter flight on Wed Night. It was supposed to leave at 7pm and they didn't even get the plane there till after midnight. The team didn't get to Minny till 6am.

WVU destroyed my bracket... fuck them.
my upset picks killed me as well... VCU and Utah State both lost by 1 point, NDSU was very competitive but they lost.

WVU played bad today, but they didn't do anything they needed to win the game. Huggs has always failed in the tournament for the most part. Ruoff is not clutch at all and was about the 4th best player at the end of the season. Butler has never been clutch either. Kevin Jones has sucked the last 4 games. At least Truck actually did something. Maybe he can do that all of next year.

Refs played no part in the Pitt game. If anything, they helped out ETSU.

I did originally have Cleveland State picked also....shit, why did I change?!? And I had FSU going to the Elite 8 over Pitt...guess I thought too much about their depth and the ACC tourney run they put together (UNC victory).

It was pretty cool tonight leaving the UD bar of choice and talking to a group of Siena fans coming in as they were celebrating a win over OSU. I'm not gonna lie, I'll root for OSU anytime that UD isn't in the tourney but whenever UD is in the tourney and making noise, I don't mind seeing OSU and Thad Matta (ex-Xavier coach) losing all that much.

This Siena - OSU game is sick. Siena was awesome in overtime. Ronald Moore hit those two clutch threes. I was pumped to root for them.

While I was at UD celebrating the awesome victory today, I had a buddy just about a mile way at the games and said that the OSU-Siena game was absolutely amazing. He was originally planning on meeting us at the bars and celebrating UD's victory (he's a law student at UD now), but he didn't make the game because of the double overtime (and picked us up at the bar lol). He's a Michigan fan, but he actually said that the Siena fans were really annoying at the game.

Well, if you are able to go into what is basically an Ohio State home game and bother the fans, that is something. Even the announcers said it was something like 10% Siena fans.

Yea, I was convinced that OSU got the unfair advantage becuase of Gene Smith (their AD) being on the committee and thus getting this 8-9 virtual home game. I didn't get a chance to talk to my buddy all that much about the crowd on the way home (as my more drunk friends were more of a show lol), but he definitely said that the Siena fans were annoying. I definitely agree that this was a huge step for the Siena team as a whole. I didn't get to listen to much of the broadcast, but after the comments from my friend I am not surprised that it was 10% Siena (or at least sounded/seemed that way).

As much fun as I had watching the UD-WVU game with 3 friends of mine in my apartment while drinking a few beers, I absolutely cannot wait until Sunday afternoon to go to somewhere on campus on watch the game at a bar. I really see UD matching up fairly well with Kansas, so I hope we play play up to them (like we have all season, see Marquette, Xavier, and WVU victories and Charlotte/St Louis losses).
