It is time to admit I was wrong.

I really thought Memphis and Conference USA were overrated. Oh brother.

I was counting on my Spartans to get their shit together and do major damage in the playoffs. Although they did get to the Sweet 16, it was Memphis that really has playoff focus. Free throw problems? Forget it! They are playing like champions, which I expect them to be after tonight.

After seeing them dismantle the Spartans, it felt pretty good to watch them do the same to Texas (definitely overrated) and UCLA. Memphis is just playing at another level from everyone else. They literally blew by UCLA, taking every possession strong to the hoop. Although I am disappointed that my Spartans arent playing at the same level, Memphis is a LOT of fun to watch.

Until this past weekend, I had not seen Kansas play. Tonight's finals game could be interesting as both teams got there the same way. Although this was the first time all four #1 seeds made it to the Final Four, this weekend's games were totally unbalanced. Kansas and Memphis both man-handled their opponents with speed and muscle.

With similar playing styles, one wonders how tonight's game will turn out.
