But Marvin O'Connor was sure fun to watch for two rounds, and Casey Jacobsosen will be seeing that guy in his nightmares for a long time. After that, we'll see. Against Maryland, their lack of size and depth proved too much to overcome. Gonzaga as a No. 12 seed was ridiculous, and Butler, Georgetown and Temple were underseeded as well. The big culprit is the RPI, and I hope the formula is tweaked this offseason to give a little more respect to mid-major teams.
Every team is very good, and can beat any other team on any given day.
That being said, I'd be surprised if Gonzaga was able to knock off Michigan State. The logistics would be awfully tough to work out, so I'm thinking that won't happen. It just masquerades as the NBA team in Chicago. He'd be a great hire. I was really surprised at how much the expectations have changed at Tennessee over the past four years, to the point where a first-round loss in the NCAAs is enough to get the coach fired.
