There are too many gems of ignorance to choose from (and by all means, quote your favorites), but I found this funny:
At least now we know how KSU is going to make it into the tournament, being selected by an uneducated panel.
Gonzaga taught us last year that playing sub-par competition all season long before being thrown into the fire that is the NCAA tournament, exposes your weaknesses.
Gonzaga West Virgina 50 84 Oklahoma 47 72 NCAA Kansas State 52 68 NCAA Baylor 87 94 NIT Champ #22 Oklahoma State 68 69 NCAA #13 Illinois 85 74 NCAA #13 Butler 64 63 NCAA Davidson 67 81 NCAA
In conference Gonzaga went 3-0 against St Mary's (NCAA), 2-0 against BYU (NIT F4) and 2-0 against Santa Clara (CBI Championship).
I guess it was going 5-0 against the B12 that exposed Gonzaga's weaknesses.

It doesn't happen very often" I like that...
Meanwhile, whose game is the #32 quest tomorrow -- Magic? Another dip into football lore for Jim Brown? It's pretty easy to guess 33-35, I'd think: Bird, X, and AC. But none of those will matter until 32 is in the bag.Last edited by WSUwatcher; March 7, 2014, 12:36 AM.
