Am I Wrong?

Hey.. Props to MSU and Tom Izzo.  6 in 12 is amazing.. it is.  It is so difficult to make it that far in a "one and done" scenario and MSU should be commended.  I do want to say one thing though:  The level of play in this tournament has been very bad.  I thought I was watching a first round game at times yesterday.  Airballed free throws, sloppy play, a five turnover game by your starting point guard, and what was Tennessee doing defensively on that last play?  I thought 3 of the 4 Elite Eight games were very poorly played, and it just goes to show how defensive minded teams like MSU, Butler, and West Va really do deserve to remain standing.  Are they the best teams in the country?  Nope.  Not even close.  But, I said from day one that the committee seeded this thing all wrong and this is what we are left with.  It is exciting.. cannot argue that, but the level of play is very below average IMO.
