More light work coming up for the Billikens in round 2: Michigan. Is that team good this year? Are Ray Jackson, Juwan Howard, Jalen Rose, Jimmy King and Chris Webber still on the roster?

I think you are being sarcastic with the "are they good" comment because you clearly know your stuff but yeah, typically a one seed is good (thats me being sarcastic).

They let Howard hang around for a bit before pulling away. Can't imagine they expended their A game energy against a 16 seed.

I don't think SLU is going to have anywhere near the success of getting uncontested layup after uncontested layup against Mich. Georgia clearly has no understanding of the fundamentals of playing defense at this level. I gather that UM does. We are also going to need to shoot 3s like we did in the second half and not the first. And most importantly can't get off to that super slow start that plagued the team down the stretch.

Have they announced the start time yet? I figure it's going to be evening. Mostly because I have a dinner I can't get out of.

Yeah that was a fun game to watch. It was one of those games where one team seemed to be totally on and the other seemed totally off. Bills played great, yeah, but Georgia looked like hot garbage. IMO. Won’t be so easy against MI but I’ll sure be rooting (bleep) hard for the upset!

Early start for SLU vs Michigan on Saturday, March 21 at 11:10 am. Going to take a complete game to have a shot, but they don't call it March Madness for nothing. Let's go, SLU!

A-10 is 5-2 in post-season play so far this year.
