Florida is on pace to score about 65-70 points in the second half....wow.

Well, got through day one without losing any Sweet 16 teams. Should make Saturday/Sunday pretty riveting.

Adel...agree to a point but the Technical was BS on the Va Tech player although the refs did miss the glaring hack on the shot...officiating is part of it but ILL going without a FG for 4:28 is the real culprit...they rushed some shots and didn't seem like they played good defense down the stretch...plus 8-15 from the line will not win you many games...on the Technical dude hits 1 of 2 and it might be a different ball game and then he gets a 1/1 and misses the front end...

oh well...

The collapse of dUI ended the streak of 5/12 upsets. Seen that movie before though as dUI went empty the final 5 at IU this year to blow a game they should have won. All the talk from the Illannoy faithful is deja vu to the Davis/IU talk of a couple years back.
"Our staff is going to ensure that anyone who attends this University and wears the Indiana uniform will make this privilege among their highest priorities and not treat the opportunity as an entitlement,'' Crean said in a statement. "We fully expect our student-athletes to accept the responsibilities academically, athletically and socially that come with representing one of the top programs in college basketball history."
