Eastern Washington beats Georgetown and SDSU beats Duke making Utah's run to the elite 8 somewhat easy, then they go on to lose to Iowa St. who loses to Kentucky in the championship. (Not trying to make LazyD and Peeks love me, that's really what my bracket looks like.)

I love you.
 
I think people underestimate SEC's guards defense. A lot of SEC teams are small and really quick and can force a lot of TO's.

I sure started getting nervous when Ole Miss started pressing and trapping more. The athleticism on the perimeter is definitely always problem for BYU....and of course they don't have any starting quality bigs right now either....which taken together is why we saw the familiar pattern of..... Ole Miss guard gets into the paint....dish and dunk. Ole Miss guard gets into the paint.....dish and dunk. Ole Miss guard gets into the paint....dish and dunk. In the second half. And then BYU tries to press Moody at the end of the game....and he doesn't even notice them....blows down the court and dishes for the layup. Should be interesting see what Ole Miss can do going forward.

Ole Miss could easily get a couple of rounds if they are hot, they are just that kind of team. They could also easily get blown out by Xavier. IDK, I'm rethinking having Xavier advancing.

WTF happened to Byu? I left at halftime to go play basketball and the Cougs were up 17.

BYU hit EVERYTHING in the first half and Ole Miss came out sluggish/not defending hard.
2nd half Ole Miss started driving in the lane and dishing, cutting up BYU's "defense."

The whole first half I kept saying, "Why would Ole Miss, a bunch of long athletic and strong players, be in a perimeter shooting contest with BYU?

Especially since BYU is ranked 318th or something crazy like that on defense. Even if you only have a day and half to put together a scouting report, what that usually should tell you, is that teams get to the hole against them. But still, good halftime adjustments from Ole Miss' coach. Not from BYU coaches though. They came out in the basketball equivalent of the prevent defense, clock eating offensive schemes with 20:00 left in the game, so stupid and something I've never really seen from them. They've never done it that early. And teams that play to lose, play scared, usually do.
