    The Pac-10 didn't exactly have many quality wins out of conference and most people agreed it was way down this year. However, I agree that Washington was impressive to end the year and could have been a seed or two higher, but no higher than that considering how weak the conference was overall.

    I'm looking forward to the Cornell-Wisconsin game tomorrow. Hope they show it out West.

    Update: My finalists, Kansas and Nova, both out. Fun while it lasted.

    I can't do that any more than I can prove that you're not a child molester. I'm arguing facts in evidence, which is that the Fiesta chose Boise over Cincinnati, then offered a feasable theory as to why (Boise travels well to Arizona, Cincinnati wouldn't travel to Kentucky by comparison). Your idea that the Fiesta would knowingly sandbag its own business in order help the BCS to perpetuate a conspiracy against non-BCS schools, is utterly lacking in evidence or logic. There is no benefit for them taking Cincinnati, which combined with Virginia Tech to produce an Orange Bowl in which hardly anybody showed up. Nobody wanted Cincinnati. They were the last kid to be picked in kickball. And if that was Boise, the mid-major apologists would probably whine about that, too.

    Thanks for the child molester comment, that was classy. So in other words just like me not having proof for your theory, you have no proof my theory isn't right. End of discussion. Back to basketball talk.

    You can't prove your point, so you claim victory because nobody can disprove yours. You whine about a clearly facetious analogy, but technically, your theory and that theory have gotten the same amount of proof: none.

    We can go back-and-forth, over-and-over but you can't prove your theory either. Never claimed victory.

    Ron Burgundy:"Boy, that escalated quickly... I mean, that really got out of hand fast."
    Champ Kind:"It jumped up a notch."
    Ron Burgundy:"It did, didn't it?"
    Brick Tamland:"Yeah, I stabbed a man in the heart."
    Ron Burgundy:"I saw that! Brick killed a guy! Did you throw a trident?"
    Brick Tamland:"Yeah, there were horses, and a man on fire, and I killed a guy with a trident."

    My God, what a horseshit job by Kansas and Bill Self.

    That team that beat them is good, they ain't that fucking good and frankly there is nobody here to blame but Self.

    I'm Ok with upsets here and there but when teams like Northern Iowa start getting to the Sweet 16 it makes you wonder what the hell is going on out there.

    Washington at least plays in a real conference and has a few legitimate NBA players - and they haven't exactly had to beat any juggernauts to get there -- but Northern Iowa, give me a break.

    Another good game between K-State and BYU.

    Denis Clemente is worth watching by himself; he's one hell of a point guard.

    Oh well sorry one of those dirty mid-majors crashed your party. You mean that real conference the PAC-10 that put two teams in the tournament?
