Both Greg Anthony and Seth Davis (T'92) seemed a little surprised at our seeding...

So what do Greg and Seth know? Sometimes sports guys have to act surprised!!!! They can't just be "ho hum," you know! And then there's Hubert who declared the tarholes would beat Duke on Saturday, March 6. Guess he's still scraping the egg off his face.

Was Greg Anthony the douchebag who was quite antagonistic about Duke being seeded over Syracuse? That explains a lot. He's still bitter about '91!

Still it's fascinating the story lines they set up in our bracket. Just think about 'em.

Hey, y'all, are we going to have a group in the NCAA Tourney Challenge on ESPN this year?

Apologies if it's been posted.
Can they shoot their way to the Final Four? Can they elevate their game like their Cameron forefathers?

Belief goes a long way.

Thomas pauses before saying, “This is a completely different team. I feel really good about this team. We’ve worked. We got to where we are with hard work. Nobody gave us anything.”

On the court in Greensboro I asked Zoubek, “Is cutting down the nets fun?”

“Oh yeah. It’s always fun,” he said.

The green in the map is the Duke game. The blue is the FSU/Gonz game. The purple is the GTech/Okl. St. game. The light blue is the Mich. St/New Mex. St. game. And apparently Arkansas doesn't get nuttin' :D

Of course you can also see the games here if it's not on in your area: http://mmod.ncaa.com/

Pitino's path to Duke just got a little easier.

California starting forward Omondi Amoke has been suspended indefinitely by coach Mike Montgomery for a violation of team rules, a blow for the eighth-seeded Golden Bears heading into their NCAA opener against No. 7 Louisville on Friday in Jacksonville, Fla.
