Opening Weekend Thoughts

There were a ton of solid games; one of the better opening rounds in awhile. Ohio State looks great...might have got that one wrong. Hopefully they peaked against George Mason. Pitt ended up doing what I thought they would but didn't have the heart to predict. Duke is still struggling when Irving is in the line-up. I know he scored 14 and 11 but they don't look smooth offensively when he's in the game. Time and practice should hopefully do them wonders. I think they win on Thursday but you can pencil in Derrick Williams for at least 20 and 12. In the last region it's Kansas and 3 double digit seeds. VCU and Florida State should be an interesting matchup as you have one team who would prefer to keep it in the 50's and another who would prefer to have more than that in one half. I'm going to go out on a limp here and say who ever controls the pace wins.

Lastly, 7 quarterbarrel's on opening weekend...a new record. The 8th will be tapped around 6pm Thursday!
