My bracket has been so good this year that I can hardly believe it. With three minutes left it the Florida-Texas Tech game I considered wadding it up and discarding it as my pick to win the ball of wax was 9 points down and taking (and missing) hurried shots. But I held on because I had seen many times this year Florida clamping down hard at the end of games on defense and repeatedly feeding their All-American guard who is a lethal shot at the end of games. The formula worked once again and my bracket was saved. Having said this, those Gators had better play the kind of intense defense that they are capable of throughout the game should they beat their semi-final opponent (probably but not assuredly Auburn) and face Duke in the finals. They will pose a much steeper challenge for the Devils than a cold shooting Alabama did today--and yes Cooper Flagg is a very fine basketball player.

I am not really a hockey fan (until the Olympics) but still fondly remember the gritty play of Johnson on the Miracle on Ice team of 1980. And just think guys, here is an NCAA sport in which the SEC poses absolutely no threat. If I remember correctly, there may be a school or two that have competitive Club hockey teams, although I have no idea who they compete with.

Duke 85 Alabama 65.

overall seeds of the 8 teams that made the Quarterfinals in 3 sports this season: • CFP: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 • MBB Tourney: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9 • WBB Tourney: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10

Let's hope the 3 isn't needed, last year's teams demise was jacking up 3s and running no offense. Taking it to the rim and rebound is exactly what was missing from this team.

I recently heard that last year, even the Dodgers lost. It happens.

Duke leads 46-37, this just in, Cooper Flagg is really good.

Oregon falls 8-6... And if you're going to come in here and vent--I'll delete it. If I don't see you post when we are winning--I don't want to see your ragging posts when we lose. Don't be a bandwagon fan...be loyal, no matter what.

6’7, 185 and can’t shoot the three. I wish him luck!

Yep, rebounds, can score at the rim. Two skills sorely missing last season.

Florida 84-Texas Tech 79. Whew, Gat-O, that was close, Hough was the man! It sure helped that Tech missed 2 front ends of 1 & 1's down the stretch.

5-4 Ducks after seven innings as Featherston got into trouble, but freshman Oregon pitcher Kellan Knox came in and generated a double-play to bail OBD out!

5-4 Ducks after six innings. Featherston got a 1-2-3 inning, as I hold my breath...

Altman certainly has a type. He shot 19% from three last year. seriously though, looks like he is a good athlete that can rebound.

13:26 left in the 2nd half, Texas Tech up 50-46. Florida had a basket disallowed due to offensive interference, 2 minutes ago it was reviewed and called interference, it was just reversed, 50-48.

4-4 after four innings. We have Ryan Featherston in the game pitching for the Ducks, and considering his challenges this year--wouldn't it would be cool if he could rescue Our Beloved Ducks for the series win? Maddox Molony hit ANOTHER Homer?

Florida 40 Texas Tech 37 at the half. Texas Tech started out 6-0, but Florida took the lead back. There have been several lead changes, both teams are hitting 3's and getting offensive rebounds, one difference; the Red Raiders are 2-6 on free throws, the Gators are 10-10.

3-1 Buckeyes after two innings. The bad pitching day has infected Oregon starter for game three, Will Sanford, as well.

Funny how we only hear from some people when we lose…

Oregon Ducks Land Transfer Portal Commitment From Texas Longhorns' Devon Pryor WWW.SI.COM The Oregon Ducks have landed their first commitment out of the transfer portal this offseason after being eliminated from the...

Duck pitchers gave up: 11 runs (10 earned) 12 hits, 5 walks, 2 doubles, 1 triple, 1 home run, 6 wild pitches, 4 hit batters along with 3 errors. And this to a last place Buckeye team. These guys aren't getting anywhere near Omaha. Approximately 153 days until football, 225 days until basketball.

Tuned in occasionally. Every time I did, I couldn't keep it on because our pitching looked so atrocious. This against a team that has 6 wins. Make that 7 after spanking OBD.

Contrast the campus in 2021. Such a beautiful place. Springtime in Eugene is upon us, and I can still remember those warm spring days trying to determine if you could skip class and enjoy the “college scenery”.
