Pretty reasonable. I suppose a good argument could have been made for an 11 (yes, Minnesota I am looking in YOUR direction) and there was some guy on CBS who said he could have seen them get a 10, but all in all not too bad.
Should be a good game. Hopefully they pull it off. They ARE getting some love from the pundits (as much love as a 12 can get, anyway) - most have been calling out this game specifically as an intriguing matchup, and some are even picking Cornell!
I heard Bill Self on Dan Patrick’s show this morning, and he specifically mentioned Cornell as a team to watch (not suprising it was him that said it, given he saw them up close and personal).
Not related to Cornell, but my local paper predicted MORGAN STATE to make the Sweet 16. That’s pretty fucking bold, considering the 15 has won what, a grand total of 3 times since the format went to 64? Nevermind actually winning TWO games.
