One thing is for sure in the NCAA Tourney......the Overall #1 and #2 Teams in the COUNTRY will not be surprised anytime soon.....at least by the BLUEDUDE'S Watch.

The BUCKEYES of OHIO STATE could've beaten everyone in the NBA Central on Sunday shooting like that except the BULLS. I told you last week if LIGHTY and BUFORD, and now throw in DIEBLER aka THREEBLER, STATE will not be challenged and a definite shoe in to go to ROCKET CITY for the FINAL 4.

The JAYHAWKS on the other hand used their POWER down low with the MORRIS TWINS and an excellent mix of Transition Offense as well as Offensive Half-Court Execution to demolish and demoralize the confused and unprepared ILLINI. If ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK plays the way they have been playing the BOYZ from LAWRENCE will have no problems getting to TEXAS and the FINAL 4 as well.

Further,ore just looking at the SWEET 16 there are going to be some surprises but if you would've told me that one of these brackets will have a 10, 11, and a 12 seed get into the SWEET 16......i would've said I got the cash, you buy the Airline Ticket, and VEGAS.......HERE WE COME.......playing these seeds like we know something.

But analyzing these seeds closely there is a reason these teams are still playing:

# 10 FLORIDA STATE SEMINOLES......Opponents are only shooting 36% FG and 30% 3pt FG against them and they were first in the ACC in both categories and they are a +6 in rebounding......then you put Coach LEONARD Hamilton Behind those numbers in that is exactly the reason they DO WHAT THEY DO.....they will be a tough out from here on out.

#11 VIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH RAMS.......First and foremost COACHED very well and Head Coach Shaka SMART will be Unfortunately for the RAMS Coaching somewhere else soon as he will be a hot candidate on a lot of AD'S Short List. They have 6 players that have made 25 or more 3pt FG'S...which equates to you must defend the ARC playing these guys.......and they are so fundamentally sound in their DEFENSIVE Principles..........RAMS are for real

#12 RICHMOND SPIDERS......One....they have A-10 Conference Player of the YEAR in Kevin ANDERSON from A T L. And they are a very confident team, coached well, and VERY SURE of what they need to do to win games...VETERAN BUNCH. They will give KANSAS all they can handle because one...every time KU plays a MID-MAJOR they seem to play unsure of themselves and against RICHMOND that mindset will hurt you.

Breaking it down I think the committee till did a fantastic job and we have 3 #1's and 3 #2's still left and out of the #2's...... FLORIDA probably playing the best with SDSU ans UNC a close 2nd.

The BIG EAST, which many said they deserve 11 teams in.....only have 2 left an one being MARQUETTE, who was the 11th team from the BIG EAST to get in.

The ACC with their 3 top teams DUKE, UNC, and FLORIDA STATE all getting into the SWEET 16 shows you that the ACC was TOP HEAVY like we all figured it was a 3 PONY RACE.

The BIG TEN had it's 2 top teams in OHIO STATE and WISCONSIN in the SWEET 16 and hats off to BO RYAN BABY....All he does is WIN.....it isn't pretty...but man he does it every year and is consistent as anybody in the business.

TOURNEY ACTION resumes this THURSDAY and FRIDAY with the WEST and SOUTHEAST Thursday Evening followed by the EAST and SOUTHWEST on FRIDAY Evening.
