wow, KU manages to hang on...looks like UNC ran out of gas when they tried to make the comeback. But KU didnt impress me at all. They're going to be in some serious trouble when they face Memphis. . Nope, that first half wasn't impressive at all. Any team can start off hot and look to blow out an opponent. KU just couldnt quite finish off UNC and let them back in the game by jacking up threes and fouling. If KU simply continued to ass rape them like they did in the first half ,then I would be hella impressed. But as of now, I think Memphis will rip KU up.

That wasn't just a hot start, that was total and complete dominance. There are very few teams that could do anything like that to UNC. Now I knew they wouldn't keep it up, and their semi-collapse was disappointing, but I think they can definitely hang with Memphis. Don't underestimate them. They played an overall fantastic game tonight.

I picked them last year and I don't think it's fair everyone is dumping on them this year when they played a heck of a game. That said, a Memphis win helps my bracket more.

No matter who wins I win one pool of the two I entered, both for about the same amount of money.

Memphis will win 86-74... Douglas-Roberts and Rose will combine for about 48 points.

Man, the Jayhawks are playing so damn well. This is a good game but KU's size advantage in the post is overpowering the Tigers. CDR is shooting well but Rose is being shut down when he tries to score in the paint....The second half will be pretty damn interesting.
