Day 4 wrapup

Well lets see we have Bradley, Memphis (ouch did I really think they would lose), George Mason (bye bye tar heels), UCONN, West Virginia, Texas, Georgetown and Villanova moving on to the sweet 16. Yea baby.

Conference breakdowns:

SEC 7 - 4
ACC 6 - 2
Big East 9 - 4
Big 10 3 - 5 (eliminated)
Big 12 3 - 3 (only Texas remains)
Pac 10 5 - 2
MVC 4 - 2

The SEC, ACC, Big East, Pac 10 and MVC conferences are all guaranteed a 500 record or better in this tournament.

The only real shocker today was Pittsburgh's loss. This was a veteran team that kept on losing its compsure in the second half. From now on I think I am just going to use a coin to determine the winner in a Pitt. game. Chances are I would do better picking the winner.

Update: for a great recap see BRACKETOLOGIST Lunardi's post, just look for not so sweet.
