@PeteJayhawk: Know what? You're right.

Fuck you, Badgers! With your goddamned top 10 finishes, conference championships, good coaching hires and reinvesting shitloads of money into better facilities. Pisses me off! You think you're just going to become a powerhouse by running your athletic department competently? Why don't you go back to being a doormat like we remember!

@new_commentator: Why can't Davidson feel good about their chances? It's not like they're going to fall on the floor the minute Wisconsin steps on the court.

@PeteJayhawk: Hey, no argument here. All I'm saying is it's happened before. We're not the ones under pressure to avoid an epic choke.

House money, baby, house money!

@LeagueofShadows: Beasley is a better rebounder and more explosive scorer than Coleman ever was. You don't average 26 and 12 while shooting 53% from the field just because the rest of your teammates suck.

He's a good player now and will, at the very least, be an All-Star in the NBA for years to come.

@Its The Beer Talking: These nouveau riche basketball fans crack me up. Your team's been good for like 5 years out of the last 100 and you're acting like UNC fans.

players that simply know their roles

We know our damn role, shut our damn mouth, and lay the smack down on some candy-ass jabronis. Wisconsin is....the People's Champion.

@PeteJayhawk: Not as cute as Big 12 fans who think their coach is any good.

@DontPracticeRenteria: Evans is right in Jay Wright's back yard, too. I'm sure he'll be watching Friday night's game with more than a little interest.

It's good to see Wright recruiting more from the Philly region, too, even though we did lose Gerald Henderson to Duke -- assuming that's a loss.

I would disagree that Beasley is the best...he's hasn't impressed me in the few games I've watched of him. The only reason he's got the stats is because except for Walker, the rest of that team sucks. And he seems selfish.
2 words: Derrick Coleman.

INVISIBUL HARPOON

You are so right about Villanova playing with house money. The fact that this Wildcats team -- probably the weakest version of any team Jay Wright has taken to the Tournament -- is in its third Sweet Sixteen in four years is still mind-boggling to me.

I don't expect them to beat Kansas, but I wouldn't be surprised. (Does anyone remember January 22, 2005?) Keep in mind this Villanova roster is mostly freshmen and sophomores gaining valuable experience on a national stage. I think they're going to be frighteningly good next season.

Davidson has to feel good about their chances of reaching the Elite 8, but the Badgers can and should beat them? You know only one can win, right?

Should probably mention that a Villanova win will probably land them Tyreke Evans, making them a top 5 preseason squad.

You realize, of course, that this means that Wisconsin will edge Davidson and pound the snot out of Kansas right? For all their skill...smack 'em in the nose, and Kansas falls.

@Dead Wrestlers Society: Well there would have literally been one shining moment, when a player hit his free throws to win the game 2-0.

We can thank the bracket gods that Wisconsin and Washington State did not meet up in the Sweet 16. That would most definitely not have been one shining moment.
