One For The Ages

NCAA
-What a game between UT and Texas A&M Wednesday night! The Instant Classic went to double OT where the Longhorns held on to win 98-96. Kevin Durant (30 points,16 rebounds) and Acie Law (33 points, 5 assists) stole the show by carrying their teams on their backs. Seemed that every time their respective teams needed a big shot they were there to step up and drill it. I can't wait to see how these two teams perform in the NCAA Tournament. A&M looks like a two seed and could creep up on a one seed or drop to a three depending on their showing in the Big 12 Tournament. UT looks like a solid four or five seed to me...
-Hey Mavmaniac! Thanks for the comments! As far as a bracket buster, I would look at Butler as a Mid-Major in the George Mason Ilk. I would not be surprised to see them in the Final Four especially if they get a easier bracket. They won the preseason NIT Tourney and with a record of 26-5 with wins over teams such as Notre Dame, Indiana, Gonzaga, and Tennessee they are ready to take on the big boys. UNLV is another good choice as a bracket buster. They are fast and athletic! They are 24-6 this season with big wins coming against Arizona, an underrated Nevada team, My Texas Tech, and Air Force which is another team that could make some noise come March.
