I love the First Round of the tournament. Watching UK & Santa Clara

in OT. Kentucky tied the game with less than 7 seconds. Santa Clara sunk a 3 with only 2.6 sec remaining. UK's Oweh made is shot just after crossing midcourt. Buzzer sounded while the ball arced and was heading downward. He made the 3, tying the game.

I love these moments in NCAA tournament that create lore. I love the upsets, busted brackets, all of it.

Arkansas Razorbacks tonight @ 8:30 on tbs. Not sure I can root for them, but I think I should to just feel a little better them beating the Badgers, and that they are a good team. Badgers lost by one point, so am not holding my breath that they’re that good.
