And yet I can guarantee you, almost no one would have been totally shocked if they were still playing.
Outside of a handful of teams I don’t think anyone would be totally shocked by almost anything that happens in March Madness. Be honest. Did you know the name of a single player on UCLA before this tourney? Or this game?
This all got started because I made a joke about Nate Oats and now you’ve turned into a Nate Oats apologist and are slobbering all over one of the last teams to get selected for the tournament because they beat Oats.
Haven’t seen you singing the praises of Loyola, who by virtually ever metric available was a better team than UCLA.
