I just kinda  sat on the edge of my bed for five
minutes staring at the screen with a blank mind. I’ve never seen a team
play so well on pure emotion. There were times at the end when LSU
should’ve run clock, but  it was almost as if they didnt care about
points. They just wanted to play defense. You have to admire that kind
of heart. In my bracket, I had LSU losing to TX.  I figured they matched
up evenly athletically, but TX can shoot.  I couldn’t care less about my
bracket. I’m so happy they proved me and everyone else wrong.  Elite Eight was all ‘heart of gold’ and tonight was a continuation of that emotion.

Buckman was named TX player of the game, but what about Gibson? Holy
crap that boy took some killer shots and nailed like all except one. He
looked like Anderson from UCONN last night. Big shot after big shot.

They’re young, but you can’t overlook commradre. They’ve played together before college for  so long.   It’s like they just know.  Enough can’t be said about the hardcore play of Thomas, Davis, Mitchell, Mitchell and Temple.  Temple gets overlooked because he doens’t put up the points, but damn how many points does his D takeaway from the competiton?  First, he stopped JJ and now Tucker.

It was one of those games that you hate to see end becaue they’re both such hard fighting class acts.   The Tigers taking on the Bruins should be a nice showdown of underdogs.
