Brandon Young scored 26 points, including a three-point play with 1.3 seconds left, as DePaul beat Pittsburgh 84-81 Thursday night.
Lately I've been hearing a lot about how watered-down college basketball is and while I can't completely disagree, it sure has made tournament exciting.
All the buzz this Monday revolves around seeding, matchups and bracket busters. In my world, there are only two ways to fill out a winning bracket.
The initial matchups for the 2011 NCAA Tournament have officially been set, now it's time for every sports fan to play college basketball expert and pick their way through the matchups and into the Final Four.
As expected the Big East got 11 teams in the NCAA Tournament. The record-setting number is as much of a product of the toughness of the league, as it is a show of the weakness of the entire field.
Don't feel bad.....you are not alone. March Madness has become as American as the Air Jordans (made in China).
Ok, so the NCAA field is lame. The 68 slots are bloated with bleh, NBA scouts are muttering about the lack of future impact players, and we're fresh off a pretty ordinary season, to put it nicely.
After fans stormed the court twice in the span of three days in wins over No. 1 ranked teams, who is college basketball's best team?
Sam Quigley had 17 points and nine assists, and Keisha Hampton scored 15 points to help No. 24 DePaul overcome a slow start and beat Pittsburgh 67-51 on Tuesday night in the Big East opener for both teams.
