Tournament update

Now that we are well through the tournaments and only the good teams are left, this is where it really gets interesting. Here is some fact and opinion on the tournaments so far and in the future:

NCAA: It is Sweet Sixteen time, basketball fans. The games got back going last night in two very interesting games. Mizzou upset Memphis, putting down all the media expectations and hype over the Tigers. Also last night the 'Nova Wildcats beat up Duke. The action continues this weekend. My prediction from how things currently stand is that our Final Four will be Louisville, UConn, 'Nova, and N. Carolina.

NIT: The NIT is moving along well, and there is a local team still in it. My favorite, Notre Dame, has advanced so far with their most recent win over Kentucky. Notre Dame will play on Tuesday night against long-time football rival Penn State. The game is in New York City on Tuesday, March 31 at 8:00 central time zone. Penn State will most definitely pose a threat for the Irish. Other teams still currently in the NIT include most noteably San Diego State, the number one seed.

I look forward to a great end to the basketball season. Please stay updated with Windy City Sports. From Chicago, good night and GO IRISH!!!
