Tobacco Road Report

By Michael

I'm still in solid territory, with 12 of the 16 remaining teams in my bracket and my final four still in place. I have all of the remaining teams from the West and South, but faltered in the Midwest and East. I thought Maryland would handle Butler, placing two ACC teams in the sweet-16, and thought Wisconsin would manage UNLV. However, I'm not surprised UNLV and Lon Kruger managed to slip by the short-handed Badgers since they were clearly the weakest No. 2 seed. In the East, USC manhandled Texas which wasn't too much of a surprise, but I picked this game with my heart and not my head since I was hoping to see Durant meet the Tar Heels. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
