The stacking of the Midwest to prevent Wichita State from getting back to the Final Four theory is starting to look a little flawed.
Did anyone catch the Manhattan/Louisville game last night? Louisville was AWFUL. Particularly Russ Smith, who played out of control on the drive, took terrible shots and commited stupid foul after stupid foul. How that guy was a Naismith finalist is a mystery to me. He's still Russdiculous. Louisville looked like an 8 seed not a 1, so maybe they were properly seeded. I mean, it's not like Manhattan played a flawless game either. They turned the ball over ad nauseum, especially in the first half.
Now Duke is out. Louisville will be playing a Tennessee team that is fully capable of beating them and overseeded Michigan will have a tough game tomorrow against the Longhorns. I'm feeling more and more confident that the Shockers can win this regional.
Can't wait for the game tonight and will have my eyes glued to K-State/Kentucky as well, which I think could go either way.
