March is HERE ~Bubble and Syracuse~

Favorite month of the year is here. Look, I'm rhyming I'm so happy. March is not only the month of my birthday/St. Pattys Day (17th), but more importantly it is the month of madness. If you don't know what March Madness is then you are simply not American. The best College basketball teams squares off in a 64 team bracket. The last one left standing is crowned national champ. Blah blah blah...now on to the good stuff. The biggest subject leading up to the tourney is the talk about "the bubble" or the teams fighting to make the big dance. This year some bubble teams include Notre Dame, Virginia tech, and Miss State. These teams have a chance to make it but they must do well in their conference tournaments.

Other news in college hoops: Syracuse tops the rankings with their impressive win over #8 Villanova. Andy Rautin's leadership is keeping the team running smoothly while PG Scoop Jardine is giving them a strong lift coming off the bench. Many analysts say this is the best 2-3 zone coach Jim Boeheim has had in the past 20 years. Quite a compliment given the 02-03 National Champs ran the same 2-3. Syracuse is my pick to be the last team standing as of right now. The Big East conference tourney might sway my decision but it is highly unlikely.
