Upset City!

Hey All,

It's March Madness, and boy has it been exciting. There has been more Cinderella stories this year then in years past. We have seen everything from a 15 seed knocking off a 2 seed and a 7 seed to make it to the Sweet 16. Florida Golf Cost shocked the world when that happened, but their run would end there as The University of Florida would be the team to knock them out of the tournament.

That run was impressive, but there's another school that is keeping the momentum going. Wichita State, a 9 seed, has knocked off a 8 seed in Pitt, a number 1 seed in Gonzaga, and last night they knocked off 2 seed Ohio State. They have made the and are the fifth 9 seed or lower to make the The final 4, no 9 seed has ever won in that game. If Wichita State plays like they did in the Elite 8, they will be the first 9 seed to make the Final Four.

The Shockers held OSU to 31.1 percent from the field, which is the second lowest of the season for the Buckeyes. OSU wasn't getting it done from 3 point land either, only going 5-25, that's not getting it done when your playing from behind.

All in all, Wichita State is making a good push for a championship this year. It's going to beat tough road for the to try and make it that far, and history is against them. But if the Shockers play like they did last night, I don't know who will be able to stop them. The only team that could end their run would be Louisville. They are the best team in the tournament right now and Wichita State won't stand a chance against them if they meet in the tourny.

Until next time,
You keep doing what you do, and I'll keep you up to date with everything sports
