College Basketball
Final Thoughts and Preseason Top 24.
I would like to attest that I was unable to watch the Final 4 Saturday night because of a wedding I attended in Denver, CO. From what was discussed Florida took it to UCLA, while GTOWN/Ohio St. was marred by foul trouble and a star who attempted to be anything but.
As for the finals, not [...]
And Then There Were Two
It seems like just yesterday we were discussing the field of 65. One blink later we have two teams left standing. Ohio State fans are loving the idea of revenge from the BCS Championship game and in the same respect, there’d be nothing better for Florida fans than pounding Ohio State again.

Wells’s Top 24 and Hardwood Notes
What a week, virtually everyone lost at some point and we have 6 teams who have already punched their tickets for the NCAA tournament. I was very impressed with some mid-major teams this weekend, which is apparent at the bottom of this list. (Last Weeks Rank in parenthesis)
