"The Shockers finished the season with an RPI of 31, and that's because they never won against any Division I team."

I sh*t you not, this came out of the mouth of the new KWCH sports anchor Arielle Osuto. I have it recorded on my DVR, if anyone can assist me in uploading it to infamy. If anyone watched or recorded the 6:00 news you can confirm as well.

I heard it also. The telepompter must have had the "top 32" on the next line that she didn't see.

This is social media but was too good not to post. It was from a reddit thread of why your team will not survive the first weekend by UK fan SANADA-X.

They pulled the rug from Wichita State
In giving Kentucky a hateful eight
But now the cats will meet their end
Courtesy of a five--no, wait--a terrible ten
When it rains from deep, it pours like salt
As Kentucky gets switched and plays help to a fault
They lower their heads and head back to their locker
At the buzzer, it's good, three fingers up for the Shocker.

Nice

I think Vandy finished 10-8 in conference. They also played a decent non con schedule so I can't complain too much even though I would prefer that 15 loss teams get left out.

Remember last year, when the Vanderbilt fans concluded that they were going to hire HCGM because they wanted to? Good times.

Give this guy a Pulitzer for poetry

Maybe the UK fan didn't realize it but the terrible 10 could refer to not just the seed but also the fact the Shockers often play 10 deep or maybe the fan did.

Beautiful! Like all good poetry, it brought tears to my eyes. :)

Which teams can disrupt the bracket? http://es.pn/2mUyWVU

[i]I sh*t you not................

This reminded me of the Robert Wuhl special "Assume the Position" where he had a segment titled "I **** you not".

If you've never seen it, give it a try sometime. Entertaining and brilliant.....I **** you not.

I'm not sure WSU got more coverage when they made the Final Four. Every time I turn on ESPN they're seemingly talking about or just got finished talking about WSU in some manner.

I also keep noticing that literally everyone making pics is picking WSU over Dayton. And nobody seems extremely confident about Kentucky over Wichita State. They keep saying Wichita State is really really really good and doesn't deserve a 10 seed and on and on and Kentucky is screwed for having to face them so early, but then after a brief pause they say that Kentuckys athleticism will probably win this game. I'll give them that but nobody's going to be surprised if Wichita State is in the Sweet 16. I definitely feel like this is going to be a special run.
