After getting 3 teams into the Sweet Sixteen, the overrated Big Ten seems to have run into a little reality check...

1. How did the ONE team from the PAC-10 do in the Sweet 16?

2. Hey.. how did your Bucks
do against cboy's Volunteers last night? Considering the circumstances, that must have been a crushing defeat for you...a double punch to the gut so to speak.

3. I didn't even see the game. After flying home from Texas, yea I had
to pay my homage to Jerry Jones Memorial Stadium, I went out to dinner with my wife. Too tired to even watch a single game last night. So I guess it was not as crushing as you seem to imply. Disappointing, yes; crushing, no.

4. Yeah..I saw your post in the Lounge..
hope you enjoyed your trip. You know, THIS loss may have only been disappointing. However, when the 49ers knock off the Cowboys in the playoffs next time...THAT will be truly crushing.

5. Yeah. It would particularly suck, if the 49er's new QB, Tim Tebow beats
the Cowboys and Pacman Jones picks off Tony Romo.

That would fucking hurt.

6. Are you for real?
Big Team has 1 team in the elite eight, who is missing their best player. A Hummel-less Purdue made it to the second weekend, when they were the sexy pick to go out in the first game. Doesnt change the fact that the Pac Ten still has no teams with a chance to go to the final four.

7. You know you have a problem when your Big Ten hatred is causing you to root for Puke.
whose Coach (R) used to hold fundraisers for Liddy Dole (R-Reason Husband Needs Viagra). :eyes:

8. OMG Upton you're asking for it
There is nothing you can say about the Big 10 that you can't say about the Pac 10 at this point in men's basketball.
