Not exactly the sports weekend I had hoped for...

First Kansas performs one of the worst choke jobs I've ever seen in the tournament, Trey Burke makes an incredible cold-blooded three-point shot to send the game into overtime, and Michigan prevails over Kansas. At least some credit must go to Michigan, they made the plays down the stretch to win the game and they have clearly saved their best basketball for when it matters the most.

Then Michigan State lost their heads in the second half against Duke and lost by 10 points. The game went as I feared it might. MSU racked up fouls, could not hit the broad side of a barn, turned the ball over way too much, and played completely into Duke's hands.
