A lot was made out of the fact that Michigan State had beaten 3 teams that were in the top 5 at the time of the victory (Illinois, Michigan and Ohio State). There were also many that questioned whether UCLA should have been one of the teams in the field.

And that is what likely makes the UCLA Bruins dangerous!!!!! Michigan State had another one of their inconsistency streaks – where they jumped out to a double digit lead, and then let the Bruins come back to tie the game in regulation, before losing in overtime.

So we had a close game between Texas Southern and Mt. St. Mary’s, a come from behind win by Drake by 1 point when Wichita State missed their buzzer-beating 3 pointer, Norfolk State winning by 1 point when Appalachian State’s last two shots in the final 5 seconds missed, and UCLA coming back to win in overtime.

March is back!!!!! AND IT IS MADNESS!!!!!! Hope the entire tournament is like this!!! It should be fun!
