NCAA Day 3

The crashing of so many brackets was occasioned by the stunning loss by Kansas to mighty Northern Iowa. Like Woody Guthrie sang, Down and Out. Disgusted, busted and couldn't be trusted. (Listen to this song; you'll feel better).

Watching the game unfold, Kansas looked very beatable and Northern Iowa had the audacity to do it led by a guard named Ali Farokhmanesh. UNI knocks out Kansas, advances to Sweet 16

Could be worse, could have "got the fever, Sun stroke, Malaria, blue, moonstruck, skeeter bit, Poison Ivy and the 7-year itch and the blind staggers, give up for less, lost and dead a couple of times, Struck by lightning, struck by Congress, struck by friends and kinfolks well as by 3 cars on highways A lot of times in peoples hen-houses, been hit and run down run over and walked on knocked around."



Watching Kentucky dismantle Wake Forest, on the other hand, only raised one question: how did Kentucky lose two games this year?

Miller, dominant Kentucky wallop Wake Forest

Before watching that game, I actually thought the Badgers might be able to beat Kentucky if the UW could get past Cornell. The only way Kentucky is going to lose is if they act like freshmen and do a bunch of stupid things.

BYU took down the rest of my bracket by losing to K State. K-State reaches first regional semi since 1988

The Other UW pounded overrated New Mexico. Pondexter, Washington punch ticket to Sweet 16

Jim Keck and my daughter Lindsay (not to be confused with Lindsay Wood Davis) now lead the pool.
