    Well all 4 #1 seeds have made it through to the Sweet 16, the last in a barn burner. Az Wildcats gave Villanova all they could handle.

    Also a ton of upsets. Bradley, George Mason!! I love that #55 for George Mason, that guy looks like he could play Defensive Tackle, but he's pretty darn nimble!

    Texas slipped on through, really thumping NC State today.

    The Big 10 was a no show though, 6 teams and none make it to the Sweet 16, the Big East is dominant with 8 teams in and 4 making it through to the Sweet 16. West Virgina vs Texas should be very interesting.

    I think all the Cinderellas will go out in the next round. Gonzaga is no longer a Cinderella of course.

    Your Longhorns looked real good Terry. I thought Villanova played pretty well also.

    Who would have thought that Wichita State and George Mason would be squiring off in the Sweet 16.

    Kentucky gave U Conn all they could handle also. The Huskies got offensive rebounds down the stretch and held on.

    From what I see there ae a lot of teams that could win. Not a lot of dominatnt performances and a lot of balance.

    I agree the tourney is more interesting with no apparently dominant team. You'd better show up every game or you are going home!

    UF has a real shot I think.

    If the Gator's play with the same determination they showed last weekend then lookout!
