Watching Ohio St v Wichita St. Shockers are very impressive. Rebounding!!! I hope we fell to the best team in the West.

The Shockers are just happy they don't have to face Jerrell anymore. After facing Mr. Wright it is a joy playing against Ohio St. big guys. We thought it was a bad game but Wichita St. is very good and could make the National Champoinship game.

So far from today's games:
- Glad we didn't play as bad as Marquette. 23% shooting / 12% from 3. Good teams still have bad games in the later stages of the tournament.
- It's fun watching Wichita State play tonight. Playing a very similar game as they played against us and just dominating. They are much faster and agile than I thought going into our game. (7-0 Ohio State run as I type this after a WSU 20 point lead).

The A-10 and The Valley should combine into one conference. The A-10 can become the East Division and The Valley can become the West Division.

I don't know if I should feel a little bit better about our loss the other night, or be upset that I probably just lost out in mucho dinero w/ my bracket.

Was at a bar tonight sitting a couple seats away from a guy who played for Ohio State in the late 90s. He seemed to have the same frustrated, they-just-aren't-screwing-up-at-all take we did.

Wichita state deserves a ton of respect. These guys can play. Terrific team baskeball. Thought Ohio state got some mighty friendy officiating in the 2nd half. Wstate also beat the refs.

Losing to the final 4 team takes a little sting away. The Shockers are for real. I am so excited for next year! We know how to win now.

No need to comment on the horrible injury, but a majority of these games are quickly approaching ho-hum status. Now I remember why I usually only pay great attention to the first weekend until the Final Four. The extra half hour of commercial time each game makes it a chore to watch some of these games.

Thank God for Wichita State honestly. A final 4 of Louisville-Ohio State and Michigan-Syracuse isn't much to get excited about unless you're a fan of one of those teams. All just huge money, basketball factories.
Hoping to avoid Louisville-Syracuse in the Final and all the weeping over the Big East, that its own members destroyed with greed.

The only interest I have in this whole Big East debacle is that the "Catholic 7" have taken a back seat to the "other" schools in the conference for quite some time. Only 2 of the last 18 Big East champions were from the Catholic 7 and schools like UConn, Louisville and Syracuse have all had multiple solid post season runs. GTown and Nova did have Final Four runs recently but not enough done to convince me the "Catholic 7" is that elite of a conference.

The Shockers are out-muscling Louisville at both ends of the floor... This team is not afraid to be physical.

Louisville getting run off the floor. Kudos to Wsu

Next five minutes ( down to 8:00) are critical for Shockers. If they are up 10 with 8 to go their guards should control the game. Louisville guards are in foul trouble.
GO SHOCKERS

Let's hope they can keep it going. I really dislike Pitino.

Djeng with 4 is huge. Wsu has to make their free throws

Shockers are in the double bonus now. If they don't succumb to the pressure, they're in the championship game.

This is getting painful. Last 6 minutes of game time have taken about a half hour.

It looks like the Shockers couldn't take the pressure down the stretch. Good season, but I think Louisville's going to win it now. Up 5 with 2 minutes to go.

That jump ball call was BS. I've never seen a jump bal called so quick. And where was the foul?
