March Madness

This humble blog is dedicated to college football but now, arguably, is one of the most interesting and fun times of the year in the college sporting world. March Madness is upon us and this year, Houston gets to host the final four. Can't get much better than that. The usual suspects are of course in the tourney and as usual I am going to be rooting for the underdog.
My favorites this year are UALR, Memphis, SDSU, Kansas State and maybe, just maybe I can root for the Longhorns. It is unlikely of course that any of these teams with the probable exception of SDSU will make a whole lot of noise. I suppose one can't count out Memphis and KSU. The Longhorns? Hard to say.  KSU had a bad stretch but appear to be a talented team. UALR is just lucky to be there, but I hope they win one or two. We will see. Stranger things have happened.
It would be nice if NCAA D1 Football could come up with some kind of tournament like is played at all levels of NCAA Basketball, Baseball, and even lower division football. I'm not going to hold my breath on that one.
