CSI MARCH MADNESS....YELLOW Tape on ALL BRACKETS...forget the BACK DOOR...WE will come through the FRONT Door...and GET a W.

So much for nothing really happening on THURSDAY in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament it happened FRIDAY. CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION in GREENSBORO NC, COLUMBUS OH, OMAHA NE, and NASHVILLE TN. It was like SCHOOLS were really not even paying any attention to what could unfold after a smooth THURSDAY and credit to the Low to Mid-Majors they laced them up anyway on FRIDAY and it paid BIG Dividends.

Double Dose of CRIME SCENE.....GREENSBORO NC....Xavier OH MUSKETEERS and Lehigh MOUNTAIN HAWKS...you have the IRISH and DUKE...NO PROBLEM...Knock Knock...whose there? It's a MUSKETEER and a MOUNTAIN HAWK....WHO?

#10 XAVIER Ohio beats the Notre Dame FIGHTING IRISH a day before ST. Patrick's Day 67-63 which really isn't a total shock considering they MUSKETEERS have the best Point Guard in the NCAA you have hardly heard of in Tu HOLLOWAY. The MUSKETEERS stayed close at half and then made the play at the end of the game to win. The aforementioned Holloway ended up with 17 and 3 helpers as XAVIER moves on to face the Lehigh MOUNTAIN HAWKS.

As DUKE didn't get the nicknames of LEHIGH...they know now as they moved MOUNTAINS on FRIDAY or a MOUNTAIN called the DUKE Blue Devils. It was Guard CJ McCOLLUM of NFL Hall of Fame Canton OHIO that hit RIVERS, CURRY, DAWKINS, and whoever else wanted to get in front of him for 29 points, 5 helpers, 3 boards, and 3 thefts and like a certain shoe brand always says..IMPOSSIBLE is NOTHING.

CRIME SCENE.....COLUMBUS OH.....St. LOUIS BILLIKENS and MEMPHIS TIGERS....Coach Majerus vs Coach PASTNER..advantage from a coaching standpoint...the BIG X and O...Coach MAJERUS.

The #9 BILLIKENS looked like and played like they have been there before as they STUN a loaded, talented but underachieving MEMPHIS Bunch 61-54. The TIGERS never really got it going all season and the BILLIKENS get 22 from G Kwamain MITCHELL and F Brian MITCHELL and the TIGERS were led by Will BARTON's 16. The TIGERS lost the contest at the ARC ONLY shooting 2-15 as the BILLIKENS shot 5-13 hence the score a 7 point margin for the LOU.

CRIME SCENE.....OMAHA, NE....NORFOLK STATE and MIZZOU....the MEAC Champs vs the big bad BIG 12 Power....advantage MIZZOU...you would automatically assume...right?

FINAL....NORFOLK ST 86...MIZZOU 84..in a shocker for the AGES and it was nail and tooth the whole way through. SPARTANS Guards Chris McEachin and Pendarvis WILLIAMS combined for 40 points, 6 boards, and 3 thefts as well as another 26 points from SPARTAN Center Kyle O'Quinn with 14 of the glass. the TIGERS were paced by 62 points combined from Marcus DENMON, Phil PRESSEY, and Mike DIXON. But that was not enough in the end as the TIGERS get out rebounded on the GLASS by -12.

Another Double Dose of CRIME SCENE.....NASHVILLE TN.....Ohio BOBCATS and South Florida BULLS.....MUSIC CITY in my BEATS Headphones by DRE. What's in ROTATION on the IPOD....IT SUCKS BEING YOU RIGHT NOW.....Beyonce....as in the MAIZE and BLUE and the OWLS of TEMPLE.

The BOBCATS of OHIO made another SCHOOL in OHIO very happy as I am sure HIGH STREET in COLUMBUS took note. The STATS were almost even which tells me one other thing...the BOBCATS wanted it more than the WOLVERINES period. OHIO G DJ Cooper led all scorers with 21 points and 5 helpers.

The Two Big Guns for the MAIZE and BLUE...Hardaway JR and BURKE combined for 10-29 from the field and 4 for 15 from the ARC and that's not getting it done. It's not that I place the blame on these exceptional young student-athletes but they lead BIG BLUE in KEY areas and they came up on the bad end of the stick when it mattered most tonight.

Remember Coach Stan HEATH of the South Florida BULLS previous stops..Kent STATE and PIG SOOIE in FAYETTEVILLE AR-KANSAS. Well back then at KENT STATE he was the SHAKA SMART and got his BIG SHOT in the SEC. He did well but not well enough to keep his GIG in the LAND of WALMIZZLE....WAL-MART.

Behind HEATH and a lesson on MAN to MAN DEFENSE the right way. The BULLS exposed and out hustled a TEMPLE squad that just didn't answer the bell when it was time to answer it. BULLS 58..TEMPLE 44. The Difference in the GAME what the BLUEDUDE simply calls..the EQUALIZER...the 3 Line...the ARC. BULLS hit 8...OWLS hit 2...+18 hence there is your game-winner.

YELLOW TAPE in 4 Cities....all UNIVERSITIES are INNOCENT until proven GUILTY by BLUEDUDE SPORTSTALK. RED ALERT to the POWERHOUSE MAJOR Squads...you better smell with these UNDERDOGS are cooking.
