Can I just say I love March Madness? It's not in full swing yet, but there's nothing like watching teams you know nothing about on the TV and cheering.
Like tonight. I'm watching the Murray State Racers against Belmont in the OVC Championship game. The winner punches a ticket to the Big Dance, and of course I'm all for another Kentucky team. I've actually watched Murray a couple of times this year as I walked and they seem to be a solid team.
And then there's the UK Women's team, headed to the SEC Championship game tomorrow. I've watched UK a couple of times on TV, and they are so fun to watch. Real in your face defense.
Today, I sat in Logan's in Lexington as UK came dug in and got a 7 point lead on the #11 ranked Florida Gators. Florida had beaten them pretty handily earlier in the season. Claps and cheers echoed through the restaurant. Gotta love Big Blue nation... or hate them, depending on if you are a U of L fan.
Speaking of U of L, I really believe they have a chance to win it all.
One more week until Selection Sunday. I'm feeling pretty good about our bracket challenge this year. After all, I am the reigning champion in the Bates house =)
