Dear TSteven,
My condolences on your recent loss. Your Cats played a lovely game and they are one of our favorite March opponents.
M-U RAH-RAH!

Well, unless Tennessee wakes up they may end up being completely "Belmonted" by American within the hour.

And we have our first "upset" of the tournament. Drake just lost in OT to Western Kentucky. My bracket is officially busted!

Thanks. I am so proud of my Cats. Not only for their hard play yesterday, but for the whole season. I do find comfort in what former Marquette Coach Al McGuire said regarding Kentucky's Basketball Tradition: "They had it before you, they had it during you, they'll have it when you're gone..."
Best of luck versus Stanford tomorrow.

I love it when Marquette plays Kentucky - it's always a well-played game because the teams are pretty well matched up and it's a fun rivalry.

Man that was tough for A&M. At least UCLA players and fans have given me a school to cheer AGAINST during the remainder of the tourney.

I'm sure the movie set in question was "Kiss The Girls" which was filmed in Durham and near UNC in Chapel Hill (wonder what she would've said if they offered her a Blue Devils jacket!!). Either way, the poor Wildacats are licking their wounds from being bounced out of another tournament
As for the Hogs of Arkansas, the only thing they have done well was stop Dook from winning the title in 1994.
