Force Wofford came out 7-7 in the second half where we were saying they couldn't keep this up could they? That's one now they get a team that shot 68% in the first half!

Hey Jumbo how bout that Ashwaubenon connection for Northern Iowa! Any insight?

Cornell?? Child, please

I mean, I did pick them in the first round (though the rest of my picks mostly sucked) and they are a senior laden team that won almost 30 games, but a Sweet 16 team from the Ivy League? College BB has more parity now than the NFL...

Force Cornell played better than any team I have seen play this year. They moved and sank so many jumpers it was really cool to watch. I hope they hit those shots against Ky since they will give them a run. Cornell played a perfect basketball game and it was beautiful to watch.
