    You will win going away in this one. JIF said that.

    We'd better start "going away" pretty darn soon.

    Down 4 with 15 min. left.

    Finally tie the game with 13:30 left.

    Trouble pulling ahead....whoa! Ron Lewis hits a three...up 3.

    Then yet another call against us and the Buckeye bench is livid.

    45 Seconds left and hanging on a 9 pt. lead...

    Looks like Joel is right again...not sure this is winning "going away" put we put some defense together with a couple of MADE three pointers.

    Buckeye Terry,

    "But, a W is a W period."

    After watching some other top seeds struggle or even lose, I do not feel as bad.

    :D Gator Bill,

    We will have to get by Georgetown today!

    Really do not know what to expect, but we will have to be able to hit our treys to win this one.

    Whoops! I was sure Ohio State would win, but now the Gators have to play Georgetown.

    That game was not televised here in Central Florida but Georgetown shure handed it to Ohio State. I didn't expect that.

    I'm surprised Georgetown got out of the first round much less to the sweet 16. But that's the thing that makes March Maddness so great. If you don't play well you go home.

    :D JIF,

    You really jinxed my Buckeyes! :wink:

    We had no answers for the Hoyas and they really dominated us yesterday.

    I will be anxious to see how they and the Gators match up with one another.

    G-Town had the perfect storm for our kids yesterday.....too big and strong up front with solid perimeter defense to keep our jump shooters in check.

    The Hibbert(sp) kid is a player. 7'2" agile, strong enough to bang with Dials but 5 inches taller and able to play over his head. Shoots over him in the low block, hits a jumper from the top of the key then next possession puts it on the floor and takes him to the hole off the dribble....the kid is a player and we had no answer. Just a bad matchup for us and they kicked our a$$.
