Anyone else doing brackets? I'm currently ranked #214 out of 215 in my pool. Apparently I'm not very good at predicting.

All of my brackets are so-so right now.

But for the record, Gonzaga is about the worst match-up we could have for an 11-seed. We'll need to have ridiculous shooting performances from all of our players to stand a chance.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. See, I dreamed last night that we would beat Gonzaga. Last week I dreamed we lost to San Diego and a couple days before that I dreamed we'd finally beat NM in the tournament. (Beats dreaming about taking tests, I guess.)
Also, my uncle thinks we'll win, and he's usually right.

Forget RPI, rebounds, shooting, and individual players' size and stats. All that really matters is the dreams of one random person and her uncle.

Well that's how it worked in the Old Testament at least.

At least the refs didn't miss any calls. I'm always inconsolable when they make poor judgments, but tonight I'm okay.

For what it's worth, I didn't dream about it.

But I'll probably have nightmares for a week.

They were doing SO GOOD until overtime, then Jimmer kept chucking up these random 3's everywhere, and he didn't even try to take it inside. It's one thing to take the open shot, it's quite another to just throw em up randomly. Bad judgment. Bad, bad judgment. But I think he was probably tired. He certainly looked tired.

When I was there, I saw some pretty rotten foul calls, but I don't know if there was anything more egregious than the typical missed calls that happen during any game.

My opinion of the game: The result was heartbreaking, but I am darn proud of the run we gave Florida. We sure as heck didn't make it easy for them. It wasn't a great day for shooting for us, and I think that's largely because of the defensive pressure they were able to put on us. They have BIG GUYS. And from what I could see, they played very, very aggressively, forcing us to take some pretty crummy shots. I would have loved to make it another round, but like I said, I am darn proud of our team and coaches and their efforts.
