So the Houston game was so exciting that Charlie and I went outside to play some HORSE. For those who need to know, I won the first game and Charlie won the second game. It was so hot out that we decided to just call it a good game after that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elizabeth tried switching to the women\u2019s tournament but UCLA is now up double digits on LSU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looks like we didn\u2019t miss much in the men\u2019s game. With 7 seconds left, Houston is up 69-50.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Really not much to blog about – I did get to golf this morning – sadly my chipping game had returned to normal and I shot a 98.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the interesting pieces of the midwest region was that everyone had a home court advantage over Houston – especially Purdue who was an hour away. While Tennessee fans travelled well, they really never were able to get into the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even in their first round games, their closest site was Wichita , Kansas – which is 9 hours away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So now, the Cougars will head to the Final Four – just 3 hours away at San Antonio. I suspect Texas will be a much more friendly environment for the Big 12 champions. Although, Houston has seemed pretty comfortable being the road team<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, the only thing standing in the way of all 4 top seeds advancing to the Final Four is Big 10 regular season champion Michigan State. I am sure that the SEC regular season champions from Auburn will have plenty to say about that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
