Sooo, on Saturday night I went onto my computer and saw the shocking news...the Huskies had beaten Arizona to win the Pac-10 championship on a Isiah Thomas buzzer beater..in OVERTIME! At first I was shocked, then angry, then confused.
Let me take you though my thoughts...
Shocked: Wow! I couldn't believe the Huskies won AGAIN without Overton. Wow! They went into overtime? Isiah Thomas played the whole game and swished it at the buzzer? Holy cow! How did that happen?
Then the angry stage....
Angry: OMG! Why did I miss that game? I should have known it was on!!!!! Why don't I pay more attention to college hoops? Dad!!! Why didn't you tell me it was on??? Wait, he doesn't watch college either...and the Huskies beat his alum so he probably is angry at the moment...ill just step away now...
Then I was confused...
Confused: Wait soo they won....now what?
End of thoughts.
Okay, so after my whirlwind of thoughts, I decided to find out exactly how this whole college bball works. Yes, I do know what March Madness is and how there are 68 teams, and who were the champs last year, but I really don't know a lot about the specific college teams, so I started my research.
Sunday afternoon: To my surprise I found out that the Huskies were named the No.7 in the East. What in the world...the east? Hmm..still doesn't exactly make sense...Any answers? Then I found out that Gonzaga was No.11. I didn't know Gonzaga was even that good...I guess I have a lot to learn! I googled the college bracket list and filled out my picks. Yes, i did it randomly, mostly looking at the rankings then from past knowledge of big name teams. My pick to win? Kansas over Ohio State. Don't ask why, i wouldn't remember how I got there anyway! But, maybe its beginners luck and im right!
I'm excited to watch the tourney this year and maybe learn a thing or two along the way. How about you?
