I've got to bitch about this.
Memphis is being disrespected by the NCAA committee. How can they not rank a 30 win team as a top seed? Hell, they've won 30 games in each of the last two seasons. With basically two different teams since the three top shooters from last year all went pro in the off season.
Wilbon can have his Georgetown winning 15 of 16. Hell, Memphis won its last 22 games and swept their conference. Can any body in the nation top that? No. What has anybody done lately that can top this team? Nothing.
Coach Cal may be happy with the second seed. But under the surface he's got to be pissed. He's put together a strong program for the past few years and nobody's paid him a bit of attention. He and his team can enjoy this moment. They need to have some fun for a day or so before they get back on the court and massacre North Texas. Because that's what it's going to be, a massacre.
This team is a lock for the Sweet 16 and a damn fine shot at the Elite Eight.
They should be pissed that no one is talking about them like they are the other teams.
