Thank Goodness it's March

In one day of March Madness a 4 seed went down,  two 5 seeds lost, a one seed almost lost, there has been a buzzer beater and two teams won by 46+. What is really better than that. Last night 14 Harvard took on a strong physical 3 New Mexico team. Harvard with huge help from Laurent Rivard and Wesley Saunders beat New Mexico by 6. Then 12 Oregon played 5 Oklahoma St.Coming out with a double digit lead at half Oregon slowed down the pace and proved that the Pac12 is a good conference. Final score 68 to 55 as Oregon takes it. After that 14 Davidson faced 3 Marquette at Lexington. Surprisingly Davidson was leading at half and by 6 with one minute left. After a few threes from Vander Blue, Junior Cadogan, and Jamil Wilson Marquette was down by 4 with 13 seconds left. Jamil Wilson hit a clutch three with 10 seconds left. Then Davidson turned the ball over with 5 seconds left. Vander Blue then lead the Golden Eagles to the win with a game winning buzzer beating left handed layup.

My (Jack's) bracket

I have Cuse winning it all in a tight game vs Duke. Ryan Kelly will go for 20, but Triche will counter with 15, along with 5 threes from Southerland.

Heat Extend Streak to 24

Last night, the Heat beat the Cavilers 98-95. At one point, the Cavs had a 27 point lead. However, Lebron did not want to lose to his former team. James posted a triple-double with 25 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists.He also had 3 steals and 2 blocks. For the Cavs, Tyler Zeller recorded 11 rebounds and 12 points. The Heat started their comeback in the middle of the third quarter. They scored 64 points in the second half. The Heat have the second longest winning streak in NBA history.

Bears and Urlacher Part Ways

Yesterday, the Bears stopped attepmting to sign Brian Urlacher. Urlacher wanted a 2 year, 11.5 million dollar deal. The Bears however, will not willing to pay that to their veteran LB. Urlacher has played his entire career in Chicago but will now be looking for a new team. He is 34 and has played 13 years in the NFL. Although his career has been filled with injuries, Urlacher shouldn't worry about finding a team.

Kentucky loses... Again

     #1 seeded Kentucky lost to #8 seeded Robert Morris in the first round of the NIT tournament. Archie Goodwin was clothes-lined by Lucky Jones, who got a flagrant 2. That pumped up UK but it still wasn't enough to get them the W. This caps off a disappointing season for the Wildcats.
