I was thrilled to see 3-seed Illinois defeat 2-seed iowa state last night, 72-69, to advance to the Elite 8. In the midst of my jubilation at the final buzzer, I learned that Illinois would next play 1-seed and defending national champion uconn. For f*ck’s sake.

I’m such an a$$hole. 😞

Watching the UI-ISU replay now on CBSSN. (The wife is volunteering at the Olney Thrift Store.) Second half just started.

Good grief, terrible guard play from both Arizona and UNC.

Betting on the Illinois-UConn game will likely be one of the biggest "sharps vs squares" games in a while.
