west side of the country - held their own

ok don't tell me there's not an east coast bias in the rankings because the west coast has just plain shown up (even in losses) this week- all in games where none had a very favorable seed (aside from unm)



AND THE BIG EAST HAS BEEN ABYSSMAL



both pac 10 teams won their games

BYU - UNM won (UNLV and SDSU were less than a minute from winning)

Gonzaga, St. Marys won

even

NMSU put a scare into Michigan State

Houston doing the same to Maryland



I expected nothing from west coast teams (as my horrible horrible bracket shows - thank goodness I can always say I won last year) and I've been pleasantly surprised

Plus Cal beat the Lousyville Cards! Made my evening. Lousyville fans are Kentucky's version of Utards!



Go Cougs!

don't forget that many of these west wins were lower seeds beating higher seeds.
