    Akron was pitiful. VCU is good, but not that good.

    Akron was very poor and slow on defense. Forget handling the ball, half of their players on the floor played defense like they were a DII players. VCU was so much faster athletically.

    But, Michigan will give VCU all kinds of problems.

    13-3. Only lost New Mexico in the Sweet 16, and had it losing to Ohio State, so I'm good there.

    Did anyone other than me think Memphis could do something in this tournament? Evidence from yesterday strongly contradicts my opinion.

    Akron was missing its point guard and two other starters. Zips had ZERO chance against VCU's defense. None. That game was over before it tipped.

    Just part of the Mountain West's annual undressing in the tournament. San Diego State, you're on the clock!

    Yes.
    In my "win your pool" column earlier in the week, I suggested two 14s to watch. Harvard and Davidson. I went with Davidson. Worked out well.

    Some other points:

    *I love Versatile, though he can be over the top anal at times (doesn't make him a bad person). He is dead on above. STFU about your brackets, unless you went 1-15. A young woman I love dearly posted on FB that she was F'ed, her bracket dead. After three games were final. STOP.

    *As an alum, I'm concerned VCU's game last night did more harm than good. It isn't that easy and Michigan is a whole 'nuther bird. Good guards can give VCU trouble. I'm somewhat optimistic, or maybe hopeful is a better word. But not close to confident.

    *Still cursing that Davidson finish. MY BRACKET IS RUINED! LIFE SUCKS! I HATE BASKETBALL!

    *Oh how I wish St. Louis wasn't in the same grouping as Louisville. If St. L was on the other side, I might have it in the final.

    I just have this feeling that based on what we saw yesterday that Wichita State-Gonzaga has upset written all over it...

    If there's an upset to look for it's Colorado State over Louisville. Rams are fun to watch.
