While listening to the talking-heads discuss why one team is in and another is out, the Badgers have a 3-seed in the Midwest bracket and will play this Thursday.
One could argue that the Badgers easily deserved a 2-seed, but we were given a closer-to-home path playing in Omaha and then hopefully Detroit on weekend number two. What upsets me is that we somehow seem to draw a very difficult path every year. We may have arguably the most difficult 2nd game for a 1, 2, 3 or 4 seed in the entire tournament having to play USC or Kansas State - both very good teams.
But, whatever. It’s another year and you’ve gotta beat good teams to move on, so let’s just do it. Depending on game-time on Thursday, I’ll have to get some time off of work… hopefully Derek can make it down to Dad’s earlier than expected so we can all watch together. But at least we’ll all be watching on Saturday (ok, ok, ASSUMING that we win Thursday - you never know).
Oh, by the way… F Hubert Davis. Idiot.
