Thursday NCAA Live Blog: 12:25 ET Games - Deadspin Comments

Speaking of Georgia...I went to Georgia when I was 12 and I was hiking with my Dad. We stopped in a small town and asked and old man if there was anything to see or visit locally. His response: Nope. Sherman burned it.

True story.

Why does the former coach of Baylor who covered up that kid's death now play for Georgia? And what if Baylor and Georgia meet up in the second round?

I've got MSU-Temple, followed immediately by Purdue-Baylor. I am getting absolutely no work done today. My boss just walked by the office and asked if I was feeling sick, so why do I feel guilty going home?
