Sweet Sixteen

Wow, what a crazy first two rounds of the tourney. Their were numerous buzzer beaters and upsets alerts. 

Cleveland State a No. 13 seed shocked No. 4 Wake Forest by beating them handily by 15 points. The final score 84-69 looks much closer than the actual game itself. 

Cleveland State came out of the gates with a purpose and took it the young and inexperience Demon Deacons. They jumped on them early and didn't step off the gas. 

Wake Forest was never able to recover and Siena was able to cruise to an easy victory. Some people had the Demon Deacons going as far as the Final Four. 

But they were surely one of the most disappointing teams in this year tourney. I'm pretty sure no one had this upset on their bracket. 

The buzzer beaters between  Oklahoma State Cowboys and Tennessee Vols  was a sure classic. It came down to a last second game winning shot by the Cowboys. 

The Cowboys held on with an 77-75 victory over the Vols to move on to the second round. 

It was like watching a heavy weight fight, each team kept making incredible shot after shot but neither team wouldn't fold. They both keep answering one another and you were just waiting for one team to finch.  

One of my Cinderella teams, the Arizona Wildcats made it to the sweet sixteen but they'll have to go against the tournament No. 1 overall seed the Louisville Cardinals. If they want to advance to the elite eight. 

These are just some of the highlights that stood out to me during the tournament thus far. But I'll see you all in less than a week where I'll re-cap the Final Four.
