Holy Cow!

Holy cow!  Holy Cross will play Oregon in Spokane Friday evening after beating Southern tonight in the First Four play-in round in Dayton, Ohio.

Holy Cross is 15-19, a team that one might say gelled late.  It was 5-13 and going nowhere at one point in the season.  But because conference championship games give late risers a chance to get into the field, the Crusaders are in.

Michigan and Tulsa are up next in the final First Four game.  The Wolverines feature a Portland kid, Kameron Chatman.

That alone has me pulling for Michigan, because otherwise I wouldn't care about this game.  Should be a close one, which is always a good thing from a fan's perspective.
