After a pretty boring first day of the 2008 NCAA tournament, the 2nd day was filled with good stuff…..
- Western Kentucky pulled out a very exciting game. But did anyone notice how they almost pulled off one of the biggest blunders in NCAA history?? With 30 seconds left in overtime and the game TIED, the entire team became frantic on defense and intentionally fouled Drake. Drake went to the free throw line for the go ahead points. What??!!!! Idiots. I really hope UCLA plays them because any team as stupid as that will lose to the Bruins. On that note…
- The Dream West Region became insanely dreamier. Remember when Wilson Phillips had a bunch of hits in the early 90’s? They were a good group with good songs, and 2 out of 3 of them were really cute. Most people liked Wilson Phillips. Now imagine then if the big fat one with the mole on her face left the group, you would have liked Wilson Phillips more now right? That is your new West Region bracket now for the Bruins. Wilson Phillips without the chubby girl. UCLA gets either San Diego or Western Kentucky in the Sweet 16. I personally fear San Diego more. Geezus, did I just say that? The path to San Antonio cannot be laid out any better. (and for those of you who are claiming they never listened to Wilson Phillips, dont deny it, you liked “Hold On” and “Release Me”)
- The Pac-10 is looking really bad right now.
- Stephan Curry - Wow. The kid can flat out rain. Watching him move without the ball using subtle jukes is really impressive. Gonzaga tried everything they could to stop him with multiple defenders, switches, etc and he still dropped 40. He is an NBA player and only the Animal Westbrook can stop him.
- On a side note, in the Honda Center on Thursday, every other team’s fans were in awe of the Bruin Dance Team. We didnt bring the full squad but still dominated. Just like in the basketball game. Also, it was fun watching the Mississippi Valley State cheerleaders and the UCLA cheerleaders re-enact a real life scene from Bring It On.
- Anyone seen Josh Shipp lately????? Why does it feel like UCLA is playing 4 on 5 right now? C’mon Shipp, we have faith in you baby! You gonna get hot! (that was my sad attempt to stay positive and keep the good karma going).
- UCLA / Texas AM prediction - The Aggies fear me more after the recent showing of the Big 12. Kansas State, Texas, Kansas all dominated their opponents in the first round. Oklahoma won. Baylor should have never gotten in. The Aggies are capable of beating the Bruins as they have good athletes and can get hot. However, KLove should fare well against Jones inside Carter isnt going against a slow white mormon kid this game, he will be guarded by the Animal Westbrook. Darren Collison is again the key to this game, and has the biggest mismatch on the floor. Bruins win 68-61.
