Ah, but they were close.
Good to see a team coming out and playing hard the entire game. My husband has a theory that teams that are so highly ranked come out and take it a little easy the first round. I know that Duke and UNC absolutely don't. If a player came out and took it easy, he'd find his butt on the bench.
So far today, I'm 8 for 8.
NC State--OK
Florida--OK, whew!
Iowa State--OK
OK State--OK
Connecticut--OK
Villanova--OK
North Carolina (Go Tar Heels!!)--OK
S. Illinois--OK
Syracuse
Louisville
Wisconsin
Duke
Michigan State (sorry, ODU)
Georgia Tech
Kansas
Stanford
Time to take a little break....I'm really pumped for tonight's games, especially GA Tech and Duke. My husband and I are battling in the Stanford game. Other than that, we boringly (is that a word?
) have the same picks. He can't believe I picked Stanford. I only picked them because I never do. How's that for strategery?

Jack: Tastes pretty good to me.
