It is just plain madness. Love this DAY, and love the fact that MY UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY AGGIES are position for some HUGE upsets in the upcoming 2011 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship.
68 teams have just been announced.
The 30-3 Aggies are the #12 Seed out of the South East and will take on Kansas State on Thursday in Arizona. The Aggies are my "UPSET SPECIAL" this year. Get out your pens. Start filling up your brackets. Also love UCLA. USC has a tough road to hoe. BYU is HOT with JIMMER!
