WOW. WOW. WOW.
Ok. Just got done watching unranked Maryland GO TO Chapel Hill, and come out with the win over the #1 UNC Tar Heels.
First statement.
1. UNC (University of North Carolina) is the OSU of College Basketball. Theory stated below:
-They were ranked number 1 and got upset in big games. (OSU's 2 College Football National Championships)
-They were over-confident and believed they could do anything. (OSU though less of LSU and Florida in their 2 title losses)
-They have a great player in Tyler Hansbrough who couldn't produce in the loss to Maryland. (Troy Smith/James Laurinaitis didn't play solid enough to come otu with a national title)
-They have a coach who has a good history, but hasn't done too well in National Championship. Roy Williams only has one Natl. Title, even though when he was at Kansas he was in the Final 4 more times, but with no Natl. Title. (Jim Tressel of OSU hasn't done well in the post-season National Title Games)
Therefore, I absolutely HATE over-confident, arrogant, and ignorant teams who may have star-studded lineups, but never produce in the big games.
Plus, James Gist of Maryland was a total BEAST in the game, racking up 22 points along with 14 rebounds.
James Gist > Tyler Hansbrough
Also #4 UCLA has just lost to unranked USC. O.J. Mayo had 16 points, and struggled at times, but the Trojans came otu with a win.
Late Tonight, Clemson goes to Cameron Indoor Stadium to battle it out with Duke, who they have recently had bad blood with. Last year, Clemson lost to the Blue Devils on a controversial call. Hopefully this time, there will be none of that. I'm predicting Duke to come out with a win, even though I absoluely hate them.
In other sports news, the St. Louis Rams Owner Georgia Frontiere died Friday. She was 80 years old, and had been hospitalized for several months while fighting Breast Cancer.
Now, onto the Nevada caucuses. It's been announced that Hilary Clinton, and Mitt Romney will be the projected winners in Nevada, with 90% of the precints in for the Democrats, and 95% in for the GOP. (Grand Old Party, also known as the Republicans.)
In other news, a teenager who took part in the Former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto's assassination was arrested near the Afghan Border. The teen also admitted to taking part in other acts of violence against Shiites during Ashura.
Anyways, that's all for now.
