The CBS problem continues. We got the Illinois game and the West Virginia game. Virtually none of the Louisville game and about the last 3 minutes of Arizona-Okl-State.

UW-Milwuakee couldn't guard Illinois' Guards so that was it. Maybe had they had a tougher regular season it would have helped. Still, hard to expect them to upset 3 straight.

Illinois has had it easy so far. Arizona will be their first test. Lets hope Channing Frye realizes he has to play tough and hard for a change.

Same for North Carolina and it doesn't look like 'Nova has the size especially without Sumpter.

Would have been nice to see the Louisville game.

TT and West Virginia was a defensive game. TT effectively stopped the WVs back cutting and 3 point shooting and on the offensive end, the penetrated WVU's 1-3-1 zone...and they still lost...go figure.

As for todays games...

Best bets are Kentucky over Utah (Bogut this and Bogut that...hey he's still green and should stay in school, besides that, whats he doing at the top on the key?) and NC over 'Nova (Nova has no size and NC has guards that can guard) but as usual, I'll be pulling for the underdogs.

Michigan State has a real chance against Duke. Especially if Duke ends up with no big men in the last 5 minutes which is Coach Ks only coaching flaw.

NC State - Wisconsin is a toss up too but I'll take NC State in a nail biter.
