Defending champs go down in flames. It was 74-66 in favor of Iowa State over Connecticut just now. UConn started hitting some meaningless threes late. They even tried a showtime dunk as they know they were going to be ousted... but the dunk failed. And so did the Huskies.

Just went final- Florida State takes down St. Bonaventure 66-63. I would have been so disappointed in Florida State if they were bounced by St. Bonaventure. The Bonnies started off with a 7-0 run before Florida State finally got their heads in the game. They didn't lead until about maybe halfway through the Second Half. Breathe easy, Seminole Nation... at least, until the next game in the tournament.
you know why im mad

DOWN GOES DUKE!!!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 (bell rings) - KNOCK OUT!
LeHigh wins 75-70 over Duke. So TWO #2s go down in the same day. You can screw the chances of a Kentucky/Duke match if you had both in the Elite Eight. I'm pretty sure my man CAM is probably trashing his room right about now over this loss...

Nah, I actually made a humble status on Facebook and got a **** Duke reply from a snobby Carolina fan. And didn't get any backup. One day, those wine-drinking, cheese-eating, fair-weather fans will get their just desserts.
That was my first rant of the year. That's pretty great restraint on my part.

Other notable winners from the 2nd Round games: Ohio def. Michigan, Purdue def. Saint Mary's, Saint Louis def. Memphis, and Creighton def. Alabama. I never saw so many haters of Duke on Facebook. I've seen lots of swearing, and of course, the obligatory spelling of Duke as "Dook." Man.
Will there be more big teams getting bounced from the NCAA Tourney? We'll find out when the Round of 32 games are concluded this weekend!

Yeah, I just learned that South Florida (usually a Big East basketball doormat) knocked off Temple. Did anyone see Will Barton of Memphis get emotional as his Memphis Tigers got 86ed from the tournament by Saint Louis? This video is all you need to know:

This season's tournament marks (I believe) the first time in tournament history where two #2 seeds fall in the same round tournament to two #15 seeds. Today will be the first round of the NCAA Division 1 Women's tournament. So guys and gals will be ballin' this weekend. Enjoy your college hoops!

No real significant wins or upsets materialized from the men's tournament yesterday. Among the women who played yesterday, only one seed not within 1-8 failed to advance- #11 Gonzaga upsetting #6 Rutgers.
The men's tournament is inching towards the Sweet Sixteen while the women's tournament continues on with first round games.

If you're from Ohio, you have to enjoy your home state having FOUR schools advance to the Sweet Sixteen. Ohio State, Ohio, Cincinnati, and Xavier all have advanced to the Sweet Sixteen. The next slate of games begin on Thursday. That is where the Sweet Sixten will go down to the Elite Eight and eventually determine the Final Four.

First part of the 2nd round underway for the women:
As of now no upsets are occurring but there was either an embarrassment or a historic win (depends how you look at it) as UConn (#1 in Kingston, RI bracket) completely flattened (might be an understatement) #8 Kansas St. 72-26. The 26 points scored is a record low in the tournament.
