Bracket busters -

I'm out. Done. Losses yesterday by Iowa, Michigan State, and Kansas killed my bracket. The fact that Washington beat Illinois today just added insult to injury. Only Kansas' first round loss to Bradley provides any consolation at all.

Did anyone even see Dee Brown on the basketball court this afternoon? He contributed virtually nothing in the Illini's loss to Washington today. I honestly don't know how much the Illini will miss him next season. Augustine (on the other hand) will be missed. During the last few years he has really developed into a great player. He has size and quickness, he can shoot decently from outside, and he will only get better as time goes on. NBA anyone?

Two years in a row Bill Self goes home before Saturday. That's what that traitor gets.

Did the Illini get hosed by the refs? I mean, they did play like crap for a large portion of the game (especially the short braided one), but the Huskies took like 4 times as many free throws. Me thinks the zebras had an impact. But, fuck it, the Illini didn't deserve to win.

Two MVC teams in the sweet 16. Nice.
