#NuAIDS Tuesday MOAR FLACCO Hoopsball Thread

True story – I had to take some Benadryl yesterday afternoon, fell asleep at the Niiiiiiiice Beaver half – and missed the rest of the evening.  I was suitably punished with some horrid, cold sweat nightmares at the end of my coma.

In the MOAR strange, yet still true category?  Should tonight’s favoUrites hold serve, this Chaos Maximus tournament…would send three #1s and a #2 to the Raging Semis.  And of course, no PAC-tion representation.  That seems wrong to me, yet I am powerless to stop it.

6W Southern Cal (+8.5) v. 1W Gonzaga (7:15, TBS)

I really like how the Troi Boiz play.  It took some time for the project to gel, but we can finally the free-flowing, fast-paced Credit Union teams of old.  Just with, you know, premium athletes.  Unfortunately, they are up against the runaway freight train Zags, who seem personally offended that Hippo had not selected them beyond the Flacco Eight in any of his brackets.

11E UCLA (+6.5) v. 1E Michigan (9:57, TBS)

Back across time zones in East Indy, their rival clan (not Klan, that’s just the FITBAW squadron) from Westwood takes on Juwan Howard’s Michigan.  UCLA is pretty successful at imposing their tempo on opponents, so I’d guess the odds of an upset here are greater.  It just ain’t quite as much fun, and still pretty unlikely.

Don’t forget Balls’ journey to Temptation Island, which continues later this evening.
