    We're talking about a dude with one hip there!

    Florida Gulf Coast will own the Atlantic Sun like Murray State owned the OVC.

    Mercer isn't terrible and East Tennessee has had some good years but after that, most of the teams are transitionals. But I don't see a good league for them to leave for.

    And I'm sticking with FGCU beating Florida by 15. The Gators have been absolutely terrible in spots this season.

    Gators still haven't won a single-digit game all season, right?

    Buzz is younger and, as far as we know, has two good hips. Should be a fun matchup between the two Thursday. Winner gets to dance in the other's locker room?

    Those would be two stellar additions to one of my favorite ESPN commercials.

    The three teams that have looked the most dominant through two games of this tournament are:

    1. Louisville
    2. Michigan
    3. Florida Gulf Coast

    The three teams that should probably feel lucky to be here based on breaks and close games through two games are:

    1. Marquette
    2. La Salle
    3. I guess Ohio State because of their second game.

    While I picked Marquette to go to the Elite Eight (over Illinois, but whatever), it's going to take them actually playing a decent game, something Buzz Williams has struggled to get his team to do in this NCAA Tournament and tourneys prior.

    They beat Davidson and Butler and didn't play well to do it?

    That's doodoo.

    Basing this week's picks on how a team played last week is dangerous but you can make a case for Marquette doing better if you believe it won when it didn't play well - how will it do when it does play well?

    And yes, the abundance of "it" in that is intentional. Marquette is an it, not a they.

    What WT said is correct.

    I am now rooting against my beloved Hoosiers, if only to slap down the fanbase, which is dripping with arrogance and ignorance befitting Wal-Mart Kentucky or UCLA fans.
