Well Temple has a chance to pull a #9 seed Wichita State who eliminated a #1 seed Gonzaga--and were impessive) But #9 seed against #1 seed--i have to rate a Temple win a SHOCKER, as with Florida GC #15 beating #2Georgetown impressively ) Lasalle #13 aganist #12 Mississippi have 50/50 chance of getting to sweet 16 against #9 Wichita State The Brackets are now in threads:) Now to find what channel Temple and Lasalle will be on TBS/TNT or CBS:) Max.

That was TOUGH, Khalib Wyatt over half Temple points(31 of Temple's 52 points, or Wyatt 31-rest of team 21!), ALMOST led Temple with its terrific defense to another great upset. Khalib's frustration must be immense, as he took two gamble moves in the last minute, and lost gamble. If he makes that mid-court steal and goes in for easy 2points: i think Temple would have won.
This calls it as Temple COLLAPSED when it matter most: i have seen too much end game tension--Temple did NOT collapse. If Kkalib was NOT called on steal,, final score have Temple 58-Indiana52.
They didn't show replay, i didn't see steal as a fould--Khalib recation to fould call--shows his frustration, and you could see, he saw the foul call--the end-game decisive moment.
Go Exploers--get a Philly team to Sweet 16. P.S. i think Khalib could be high 2nd round pick for NBA--he should get a shot.He had a great senior year.

Explorers!!!! They did it the hard way! No height, had to play the extra game with Boise State--so have now won 3 straight. And today beat, on sheer whatever a team much taller, and with the dangerous Marshall Henderson. This first trip to Sweet 16 in 18 years for Lasalle--(Happiness on Olney Ave.???). Like It. But drat, we came so close to having both Temple and Lasalle in Sweet 16. Temple i have to say is the better team versus Laslle--they almost beat Indiana, and seemed at the equal to Indiana(With Gonzage defeat, Indiana would be rated #1 in national polls now)Max
