The good news is that if we win tonight we're in a really good spot to get #6.

Well, if we win tonight we'll be strongly favored to make the final (and in fact already are at -210 to get there and -105 to win it).
But so are Purdue. Tennessee would be no slouch either. Duke didn't look great but the Filipowski matchup might be a problem (though I expect either Purdue or Tennessee to take care of them).
Amazingly, if you look at the region-by-region odds to win the championship, the East is -125, but the Midwest is only +330. Those are the two highest seeds remaining in the field and would be favored over the South champ!

He put so much lane pressure on Gonzaga that they got great looks on the pass out
And edey got such deep position his own were mostly dunks
I know clingan a little different of a player
But bottom line is we have 7-3 275 and Illinois does not. Most of the talk has been about Shannon but we have the real diamond in the hole at both ends

Houston was running their offense with Roberts being the facilitator of the offense. Also, they were heavily dependent on LJ Cryer, who is a very good player and played well, but is much better finishing the plays with Jamal Shead initiating the offense.
