Remember how I mentioned that only the 14 seed and 16 seed didn’t get a win on Friday. Eastern Washington is trying to remedy that situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 14-seeded Eagles have a 46-38 lead at halftime over the Kansas Jayhawks. There is obviously a lot of basketball still to be played – but Saturday’s first upset alert is here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am also having a little bit of deja-vu. They just mentioned as talking about the possible upset that Eastern Washington has never won a NCAA Tournament game. So, a team that has never won a tournament game has taken an 8 point halftime lead against a heavily favored team. I am sure that it is just coincidental that North Texas had never won a tournament game before last night, and that they started off with an 8 point lead against the Boilers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It could be that I just can’t erase that game from my mind…… Maybe this just is creating unnecessary fear for Kansas Jayhawks’ fans. But at the end of the day, being down 8 should probably create some fear!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
