It's so weird they are playing the regional at the Garden. Awesome, obviously, but weird.

That is going to be a crazy game. Not as crazy as 2012 when they met in the Final 4, but if Wikipedia is right this is only the SECOND time in almost 30 years that they've met in the tournament?

Fitting that the foot of Iowa State's only big man falls off the day before they play UNC.

They played in the second round in 1984 and in the Final Four in 2012. UK won both.

Louisville opens as a 5.5-point favorite. After today's game...

Tracy Wolfson: "So how do you feel about facing your rival Louisville in the Sweet 16?"
John Calipari: "Is that who we're playing? Where are we playing?"
Tracy Wolfson: About 3 seconds of speechlessness...

Very unfortunate tournament for Fred Hoiberg. I really feel for him.

Should I go back and find all of your posts during the Duke game?

Duke doesn't get all the calls. If they did, they would not have lost to fucking Mercer.

The question marks on ISU was overall depth and the ability to play interior D. I felt UNC, even without Niang, was a nice match up for ISU, because Carolina can struggle to score. However, we've seen today that when you can't D up, even average offensive teams can light you up.

I could watch duos like Early/Baker and Kane/Ejim play all day. Guys who have some size and can do it all.

I think it's off Paige, but probably too difficult a call to overturn.

That was an awful sequence for Carolina. You have to at least hold out for a shot there, and even worse they give up a bunny.

There's no way McAdoo can make 2 FT's though, so ISU is in good shape.
