You have to guard Luke Hancock.

Erik4Cy · Mar 20, 2014

That should do it. Manhattan upset bid falls a little short. Hell of a game but Hancock was just too clutch from downtown.

So close.....but not happening.

As is guarding the 3 point line.

Yeah, Louisville definitely made the plays they had to.

Louisville survives this round but they won't be around for long.

I was about to say UL probably wins it all now (or at last Final Four). That "close scare" in first round can sometimes bring deep runs.

#30 Ashton Pankey is good for a sophomore. This is his fourth year in college though.

This is why I didn't fill out a bracket. The tournament is so much fun that filling out a bracket takes away from that fun.

I might try that next year. It goes against every fiber of my being, but ... it seems like a great idea right now!

Just fill out a bracket with teams you want to win? Or intentionally make picks that are extreme... It helps you not take the bracket so seriously.

FUMBLE!!!!!!

This is the first year I tried it and it has been very liberating.

Great shot from deep. Going to OT.
