Re: Game Threads: Thursday, March 20
Some good matchups for Saturday. I expect Beasley to knock Wisconsin out of the tournament.

Re: Game Threads: Thursday, March 20
People need to start talking about Desean Butler. That guy can play.

2001 - they beat BYU and Kent State. Lost to Stanford.

The season after Kenyon was drafted. In 2000-2001 UC made the sweet 16 with Steve Logan and Kenny Satterfield.

Re: Game Threads: Thursday, March 20
I hope everyone remembers Belmont. They only lose Justin Hare and return every single other player. They are going to win a game next year.

14 of 16 for Day 1. Lost BYU (ugh) and Arizona (double ugh). No sweet 16's though. I'll take that any year.
I need the redemption. I was in the 43rd percentile last year after getting 99th in 06.

Yes he can. However, both he and Joe are natural SF's, which creates some lineup issues.

Re: Game Threads: Thursday, March 20
14-of-16 in Day 1 with just USC and Kent St. letting me down, but I had both of them out in the second round, so no biggie.
So that means I'm in for a 9-of-16 Day 2, just like always.
