Sweet

It was NCAA Tournament fever at our house today as Maryland (my wife's alma mater) and Texas A&M (where we met in grad school) both played their second round games almost simultaneously. The Terps didn't fare very well against a hot-shooting Butler team that played like it had nothing to lose. The Aggies, however, won a thriller against Rick Pitino's Louisville Cardinals, 72-69 to advance to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1980. That's a remarkable accomplishment considering this team was 0-16 in conference play three seasons ago. Billy Gillispie has done a remakable job and I hope they can ride this wave just a little bit longer. Congratulations, Ags. Gig 'em.
