An Imperfect End

So how did that Kansas versus Ohio State matchup work out for ya?



Andre Rison's house thanks to his girlfriend

  Okay, so your bracket was torched quicker than former NFL wideout, Andre Rison’s house (see the late Lisa “Left Eye" Lopes).

  But wasn’t the whole Butler, VCU, UConn, Florida State, Morehead State thing fun?

   At first yes, but when the highest seed in the Final Four is a three and then Butler shoots 18.8% from the field in a 53-41 loss (worst shooting percentage in title game history) it leaves fans wanting more.

I’d watch Kansas play Ohio State or Duke right now despite what VCU, Kentucky and Arizona did to each of those teams.

Gary Busey..being Gary Busey

  

   Just because Butler’s offense was more clueless than Gary Busey doing the New York Times crossword puzzle, that doesn’t mean UConn shouldn’t be celebrated. The Huskies won 11 straight games in 27 nights and became the third team to start the season unranked and win the National Championship.

  
   But rather than run down the stats, and how amazing junior guard, Kemba Walker, is (not so good in the Title Game though, but he didn’t need to be..see 18.8%) the question remains, “is the tournament diluted by too many teams?”

Expanding the field by four teams didn’t seem like a big deal, but when one of those teams makes the Final Four…how do they say it in the twitter world…#OOPS
   So now, the six people that support the BCS have backed away from their computers and are standing on top of their desks yelling that this is a prime example of why the BCS WORKS! They argue that there has never been a national championship performance as horrific as last night’s Butler vs. UConn game during the BCS era…
Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, Jason White and Adrian Peterson would beg to differ…

   Sports, like life and the late Elizabeth Taylor’s marriages, aren’t perfect. Does college football need a playoff? In my opinion, yes. Does the BCS work? Like Randy Moss’ marijuana habits (his words here) Once in a blue moon…If the NCAA had a playoff with 8-10 teams, essentially you would have the elite teams going head to head. Currently too much weight is placed on what voters think of a team before said team plays a game. (“The” Ohio State every season)
    And college basketball may have too many teams in the tournament, but I believe this year’s debacle was based on a lack of a true dominant team and players. (Yes Ohio State and Kansas entered the tourney with 32-2 records, but a six man rotation and a Bill Self team??) 18.8% or otherwise, arguably the best player in the nation is holding the trophy on April 5th…and no BYU fans his name is not Jimmer…
