#10 Maryland 84 #7 Cal 71
This game had me nervous for awhile, but with about 10 mins left in the 2nd half Maryland showed they are the much better team. Maryland was led by Junior guard Greivis Vasquez who threw down 27 points with 5 boards and 4 assists. The big difference was that Maryland was able to keep Cal from getting hot from outside. Cal only shot .292 (7-24) from beyond the arc. Cal couldn't get to the basket, so they were forced to take the shots from the outside, but they weren't falling and now Maryland moves on to play Memphis.
#1 UConn 103 #16 Chattanooga 47
This game was over before it started. UConn had a 48-20 lead at half time and never looked back. I wonder if they rubbed it in for their coach that is sick...UConn now moves on to play Texas A&M.
#1 UNC 101 #16 Radford 58
Another game that doesn't really need to be relived. Wayne Ellington had a hell of a game scoring 25 points with 8 board, as UNC easily moves on to play LSU, which could be a very tough game for them.
#5 Purdue 61 #12 Northern Iowa 56
Late in the game Northern Iowa made it interesting, but Purdue was able to hold on by hitting their free throws to move on. You have to give credit to Iowa as they haven't even made the NIT over the past 2 years, and yet almost were able to make a miracle run against Purdue. Hopefully Miss. St. doesn't let me down, because I think they can beat this Purdue team.
DP and I are both 7 for 7 so far on our brackets...
