The Memphis-Zags game was the best one so far. Always great when the best teams have to chase the game and they dis- even with a 7.2 ft Bulldogs-center blocking the space Memphis were buzzing around the basket in the first half. Great game.

Surely Baylor/UNC. Real champions can turn it on when they are up against the wall. Erasing a 10+ deficit in tha last 3 minutes was incredible. It was like Federer v Nadal at Wimbledon in 2008.

That one was wild. Baylor down by 25 and I thought cat is in the bag. Frustrations really ran high- Manek's send off was a disgrace and it turned into a pressure cooker. It was a thriller definitely.

I thought the Zags-game was qualitatively great, some awesome offensive plays both sides and only at the end Memphis wasn't able to go with them. Drew Timme was a boss in that second half.

So many great games.

So the Elite 8 are:

4. Arkansas - 2. Duke
8. North Carolina - 15. St. Peter's


2. Villanova - 5. Houston
1. Kansas- 10. Miami

You feel that it's set up for a revenge match between NC and Duke, for ruining Coach K's farewell match at home but I just love Arkansas moxy and St Peter's defense.

It's hard to see Nova and Kansas lose but I'd love for Houston to shock them.
