It doesn't surprise me that there's no "next George Mason" this year; what is surprising is that the Cinderellas bowed out so soon. The experts keep saying that the games this weekend will be better as a result; here's hoping they're right.
I figured the ACC collapse could happen. When the regular season champ has an 11-5 record, it means that either everyone's good or no one is. I seemed alone in believing the latter. I think Carolina will get seriously tested by USC and (probably) Georgetown.
I did not, however, expect three SEC teams. I still figure Vanderbilt and Tennessee were beneficiaries of favorable bracket positioning. They won't get much further. Right?

Terp women are out! Terp women are out!
Amazing. Ohio State, Stanford, and now this. Let's hope Duke avoids the upset bug.
This is all because Spouse got new running shoes, blue and black ones, throwing out his red and white ones. That portends well for Duke... and has already hurt MD (and maybe Stanford?)
