That’s the freaking sun, man. It signifies just how hot Kansas and Memphis are, dude.
In case you missed it:
North Carolina; made it to 18-0. A somewhat stunning home loss to Maryland last Saturday, 82-80, eliminated UNC from the club. Ultimately the loss will mean zilch; it’d be hard for the Heels, with all of their talent, to play themselves out of a 1-seed.
Just two:
Kansas 19-0. Next two: Saturday vs. Nebraska (11-5); Wednesday @ Kansas State (13-4). Last week I said…”Don’t concern yourself with such trivial matters this week, ‘Hawk lovers.” Now the Beastley game looms on the schedule and how about the fact that the intra-state matchup is going to be rather significant? That’s pretty refreshing. Regardless, I don’t see Kansas losing on the road to KSU due to the fact that the Jayhawks are so damn deep and Kansas State has been more wobbly than a virgin, post prom night. They’ll be the last team with a bagel.
Memphis 18-0. Next two: Saturday vs. Gonzaga (15-4); Wednesday @ Houston (14-3). Last week I said…”Gonzaga game doesn’t arrive until January 26th, so continue to watch the traveling circus that is the Memphis Tigers.” Now, that day is here. I am really rooting for Gonzaga to knock of Memphis (more pro Zags than anti Memphis), but can Heytvelt and Daye do enough inside? I think they can. I say Memphis goes down on Saturday. (This will clearly backfire.)
Point and laugh:
N.J.I.T; 0-20 (Independent). Grambling State finally got a win (they are now 1-12) last week so that leaves us with what is truly remarkable and respectable from the Highlanders. The blogs will soon grab hold of this laughingstock-of-a-team and begin to satirically rip them to shreds. What’s worse? The New Jersey Institute of Technology is a newbie to Division I and is in their first year of eligibility. This looks to be like a historic year. When they get to 0-25 I will have to chronicle each and every game. There can only be one Highlander!
