Guess I'll stay up all night, sleep all day, wake up just in time for tip-off.

Ah, the joys of spring break.

I have the feeling I get before game time now. Not sure if I've ever had this feeling this early.

Hitting the road as we speak. Gonna be a long day, I could only manage a couple of hours of sleep I was so excited! I've almost all but forgot that Fedex messed up my ticket delivery and is forcing me to miss the first session.

Went to go see my doctor yesterday and asked if I had Iowa State beating UCONN and Kentucky. I said just UCONN. He about smacked me off the table and said he had us going to the Elite 8 and upsetting everyone's bracket by beating UK. Let's hope he's right. Let's go Cyclones! 14 more hours!

Does UCONN still have Kemba Walker? Because it seems like the media thinks he's going to show up and save UCONN's *** 10 more times. HE'S GONE!!!!! He probably stifled the growth of Jeremy Lamb too so thanks for that.

GO CYCLONES!!!!

Lamb, who improved throughout last season up through the tournament while playing with Kemba, and was the #3 scorer in the Big East this year?

I really hope Babb can hit some shots. It seems like when he's hitting them, we do better as a team. Such a streaky shooter. Imagine if he starts with that...

15 Walker, Kemba...... 41-41 1543 37.6 316-739 .428 75-227 .330 258-315 .819 53

03 Lamb, Jeremy....... 41-40 1140 27.8 182-374 .487 46-125 .368 47-59 .797 50

Walker had almost as many MAKES as Lamb had ATTEMPTS last year. Kemba Walker was the definition of a one man team last year. I'm about half as worried about Lamb as I would be Walker. All I am saying is that I think the media is basically talking about UCONN like Kemba Walker, Rip Hamilton, Ray Allen, and Ben Gordon are still playing for them.
