    Rice Krispies scores nearing the mid-point of the extra frame to cut the deficit to one.

    After the overtime period in Battle Creek, Apple Jacks is moving on to the Elite Eight with a 5-2 victory.

    My Super Sweet Sixteen results:

    Grandma's House Sectional (at Golden Valley, Minn.)
    1. Cheerios def. 5. Cocoa Puffs, 11-8
    7. Fruit Loops de. 6. Count Chocula, 11-8

    Raisin Hell Sectional (at Battle Creek, Mich.)
    1. Corn Flakes def. 4. Honey Bunches of Oats, 11-8
    7. Apple Jacks def. 3. Rice Krispies, 9-9 (5-2)

    Sugar Fix Sectional (at Peterborough, Ont) *group of death
    1. Lucky Charms def. 5. Trix, 15-4
    2. Cinnamon Toast Crunch def. Cap'n Crunch, 11-8

    Midnight Snack Sectional (at La Jolla, Calif.)
    1. Frosted Flakes def. 4. Fruity Pebbles, 11-8
    2. Golden Grahams def. 11. Cinnamon Life, 13-6



    Zeke is crying in his multicolored milk as Fruity Pebbles drops to No. 1 seed Frosted Flakes. Tony the Tiger takes on Golden Grahams in the first of two No. 1-No. 2 matchups.

    That silly rabbit took the worst beating, as Lucky Charms seems to be the strongest contender heading into the Elite Eight. We'll see how it does against No. 2 seed Cinnamon Toast Crunch, which seems to have a strong following.

    Apple Jacks may be weakened coming off its overtime victory over Snap, et. al. and will face No. 1 seed Corn Flakes. Toucan Sam has also rallied from its underdog No. 7 seed and will square off with the round Cheerios for the Golden Valley Sectional title.

    The Fruit Loops-Corn Flakes matchup is going to be a tough call. Frosted Flakes rolls into the final.

    I let down Snap, Crackle and Pop by not staying up until 1:30 a.m. to vote for Rice Krispies in the overtime showdown. But I'm going to cast my votes now. Just need to decide if I should vote Chicago style (early & often) to make sure Apple Jacks loses.
