My Final Four is still alive
March 26, 2008Thursday's games are only a day away, and as I write this, I am sitting in fifth place (out of 27) in the office pool.
My Final Four of UCLA (that A&M scare was a little much), Kansas, Texas and Tennessee are still alive.
I feel pretty good about three of those. Tennessee is another matter, although the Vols had the toughest second-round game playing a 30-win team like Butler.
Nothing too surprising happened over the weekend, although Stephen Curry and Davidson is a great story (I wrote a column on this a few days ago).
I thought three No. 2 seeds had a pretty decent chance of losing after Friday, and I was right on two fronts.
The only two-seed I figured was in good shape was Texas, which was whipping Miami until the Hurricanes made it close until the end.
After seeing Duke almost stumble against Belmont, I would have picked the Mountaineers to advance if given the chance.
Next on the line were the Vols, who escaped Butler in OT. And after the Hoyas struggled in their opener, I was not shocked when Davidson brought them down.
What will this weekend entail. Hopefully, all my Final Four teams advancing. I suspect to see some pretty good ball over the next few days.
