Man, the Mountaineers closed out that half really well.

The 2 straight blown calls that went WVU's way to end the half equaled 6 points.

I'm exactly the reverse. Dead last in both my brackets.

I...er...have a deposition now.

If my picks don't get better I might have a deposition this afternoon.

(Can anyone tell me what a deposition is or what I should do during it? Thanks!)

It's been a great year. Here's to hoping it doesn't end tonight. Go Cougars!

25/32 for me.. Not bad, not bad.

[BoylenOver]

I will be happy either way with this game. A kentucky win helps my bracket, but a West Virgina win means Kentucky loses.

26/32 after the real round 1. One of my best first rounds ever and I'm not even winning my family bracket.

It is cool that VCUs equipment manager or graduate assistant seems to also function as a head coach.

UW is talented but they are dumb

I feel bad for SeattleUte. He must be slammed at work.

Hoyas falling apart at the seams. Technicals, bad passes, turnovers.

What was up with that one pass that went off the backboard at about 50mph?

And where is Freeman? Dude's performance was flaccid. shrunk when it mattered most.

The best part about it is they are losing to a team that did not belong in the tournament. They had by far the worst resume of the at large teams. I can't wait to hear SU tell us how those are the most dangerous teams because they have nothing to lose. Also something about how the Big East is so tough its hard to have anything left for hte NCAA tournament, then follow that up with a comment about how good VCU actually is and how they are streaking right now. (Even though they lost 5 of 8 games coming in to the tourney).

The Big East is proving just how overrated they are. When they get one team in the final four we will hear about how dominant they are but in reality when you have 1/5th of the field you should probably get at least 1 team in the final four.

I don't see a final four team left in the group. Pitt? UConn? probably about as close as there is in the group. the Cuse? Can't see it.

So how representative is Georgetown of the Big East? Didn't they beat most of the other Big East teams during the regular season?
