Spring game recap.

Submitted by jman4540 on Mon, 03/31/2008 - 01:50.

The Texas Longhorns football team finished what only a decade or so ago was the second biggest sport in Austin: Spring Football. It wasn’t quite the case this year as it was the day between the Texas basketball team’s win against Stanford and loss to Memphis. However, over 40,000 fans took a couple hours Saturday afternoon to watch the preview for what the 2008 Longhorns may look like. “Tradition” beat “Pride” 17-7, which is essentially meaningless, but some of the position battles were worth looking at.

Breaking down the Horns in the NCAA tournament: Week 1 - Little Rock

The Texas Longhorns enter the tournament with one of the best teams they've had in the Rick Barnes era, and considering where they'll be playing, the Horns probably have the 2nd best team in terms of the path they will take on the road to the Final Four.

So, the brackets are out, and now it’s time to see if my quest was successful. There were two matchups we set up, the who gets more teams in contest, and the “who called the seeds better,” contest.

The quest to down Joe Lunardi: Pickin' the bracket... the long way. (post 3/14)

So, having heard all the guys at ESPN talk about the greatness of Joe Lunardi, I wanted to see, putting up 10 days of hard work into it (starting last Friday, March 7), to see if I could be close, or even better. So what I'm going to do is list the 65 teams in an outline for a basic list, then go in ridiculous detail underneath in matchup form to explain why. Hopefully, it'll be informative, if not put people to sleep. I also will try to update each day, though the info for the teams won't change much day-to-day unless moved or played.
