BRACKET BLOG: Second Round (Day 2)

In each region today, it's a tale of two games.
Two No. 1 seeds and two No. 2 seeds are in action, and the 2s face No. 10 seeds that have limitations. I suspect all four teams will win comfortably.
On the other side of the bracket, though, things are more interesting.
Pittsburgh-Xavier appears almost to be a tossup. Purdue and Texas A&M virtually are clones of each other, and I expect that game to be a dogfight to the end. The coaching battle between Tom Izzo and Gary Williams will be fascinating to watch. And everyone's waiting to see if Cornell can join its tiny brethren in the Sweet Sixteen.
The major storyline of the day, I think, is the Big Ten Conference. All four of its remaining teams (all of which are seeded fifth or higher) have winnable games. If the Big Ten sends four teams to the Sweet Sixteen, and the Big 12 and Big East do not, the hype will be insufferable.
But if more than two fall, it will be an open battle for which is perceived as the best conference. Either way, the story of the Big Ten's season basically will be written today.

Martin Named Naismith Coach Finalist
Kansas State head coach Frank Martin recently was named as one of four finalists for the Naismith Men's College Basketball Coach of the Year by the Atlanta Tipoff Club.
Martin was selected as a finalist along with New Mexico's Steve Alford, Syracuse's Jim Boeheim and Kentucky's John Calipari.
Weekend Baseball Canceled
The final two games of a four-game series between Kansas State and Milwaukee have been canceled, due to snow in the Manhattan area.
The games will not be made up.

NCAA Tournament — Second Round
Ford Center — Oklahoma City, Okla.

CBS Sports | March Madness On Demand
It's Wildcat Nation versus the Church of Latter-Day Saints tonight in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
All the hype the past two days has been for Jimmer Fredette, but while everyone worries about how K-State will stop him, I instead ask the following question:
How will BYU stop Denis Clemente, Curtis Kelly, Jacob Pullen and Jamar Samuels?
It's time to avenge the Cotton Bowl!
For K-State's game notes, follow the jump.

I don't know if TB will be posting an NCAA discussion thread today, so feel free to use this as such until the open game thread pops up at 6 p.m.
There was a little less Madness on Friday, but a few double-digit seeds still advanced to the second round.
Among them was Georgia Tech, the second mediocre ACC team to upend a higher-seeded Big 12 team. The Yellow Jackets shot an ungodly 95 percent from the free-throw line, but Oklahoma State still had its chances to win — at least, until James Anderson lost the ball in traffic on the worst dribble drive I've ever seen.
If there's any consolation, it's that Okie Lite and Texas both tied for sixth place in the conference. Our elite teams — Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri (who thankfully returned the favor and upset a higher-seeded, but still mediocre, ACC team) and Texas A&M — all still are alive.
Meanwhile, non-conference opponents Mississippi and Xavier also posted tournament wins. The Rebels beat Baby-Face Pastner and his Memphis Tigers to advance to the "Elite Eight" of the NIT and redeem their season slightly, while the Musketeers did exactly what they were supposed to do: Eject the worst Big Ten team from the tourney.
Unfortunately, excitement for all these accomplishments undoubtedly is tempered here at BOTC because little ol' UAPB's can-do season finally drew to a close with a 73-44 loss to the hated Dookies. But shed no tears for the Golden Lions, who acquitted themselves well by posting a legendary (by their standards) 18-16 season.
By the way, who had worse fail in the first round: The Big East, with its 4-4 record (nearly 3-5), or the A-10, which once was considered for 4-6 spots, but now is 1-2, with both losses coming to lower-seeded and much smaller mid-majors Cornell and Saint Mary's?
