Let the Madness Begin!

I love college basketball, so this week has been VERY enjoyable for me. I've got a few quick comments to make about various things regarding the NCAA tournament, and I'll talk a little more (but not much) more in detail about the brackets/pairings later (I'm still working on papers for my Masters' classes.

1. My alma mater, UNLV, won their conference tournament! Go, Rebels! This landed them a #7 seed in the...West, I think (although it might be the Midwest. Hang on, I'll go look...yup, it's the Midwest), and a matchup against #10 Georgia Tech. Good luck, fellas!

2. Drexel head coach Bruiser Flint has the BEST name in all of college basketball. When I grow up, I want to name all my children Bruiser Flint Ziegler.

3. Come on, Duke Boy! ESPN's Tim Legler just picked G-Tech to upset UNLV in the first round. Don't listen to him, RebelNation! Go Rebels!
