Well it's obvious so far that the Big East, Pac 10, Big 12 and Big 10 are the class of this tournament. I was really hoping that Marquette would beat Stanford so that we could claim dominance over the Pac-10 after the Washington St - Notre Dame debacle, but so far they've got us 2-1. Still, this was a great game that Marquette had the chance to win twice, but credit to Stanford and their fill-in coach: they got it done when they needed to. Those Lopez twins are monsters man. I don't know how that last shot went it, but it sure did
Still, the Beast should have put to rest any of that "overrated" talk and the bitching about them getting 8 teams in the tourney. Who was the last one in again? Oh yeah, Villanova. What did they do? Oh yeah, beat Clemson.
Big East = 2-0 vs. ACC's top 3 teams. Suck it DUKE!! They are some of the worst fans for bragging and getting in your face, and I don't usually get nasty but it's time for some comeuppance for the cockiest, loudest-mouthed fanbase in all of college basketball. I'm very happy they'll be sitting home watching the 2nd weekend yet again. I heard time and again that the ACC was far superior to every other conference, when I've been saying all along it was Big East, Pac 10 and Big 12. Maybe now all the Dookie fans will knock it off and admit they were beaten by a better team from a better all around conference. Oh yeah, the team that finished 5th in the "weaker" Big East. The team that sent you packing.
