Light Blogging Due to Holiday
Sorry for the light blogging. It’s currently a religious holiday around these parts.
That’s right: it’s March Madness. Maryland just won the ACC tournament, and the NCAA Men’s bracket selection is coming up in just a little bit.
My wife is watching the Women’s bracket. All three Research Triangle schools are in the tourney. And while it’s hard to find a conference with more religious zeal than the ACC, I note for our RTB audience that there are 6 SEC teams, including UT (duh) and Vandy (our alma mater!), in the dance, not to mention a TON of miscellaneous teams from Tennessee: Austin Peay, David Lipscomb, Chattanooga, and MTSU. Nice going!
Gotta love this time of year.

Ah, what do I know. I’m a Big Ten guy. (Although I’ll root for the Memphis Tigers if the Big Ten teams get knocked out.)
Still trying to figure out how Illinois rates a higher seed than Wisconsin, despite identical records, and Illinois having lost two of three to Wisconsin, including a 17-point loss in the conference championship…

The committee chairman said that the lateness of the Big Ten Final affected the seedings. If that is so, they should do the seedings much later in the day, or end championship games on Saturday. Wisconsin’s seed is ridiculous. So is Maryland’s, for that matter.
