Quite a game, Duke overcoming a 16 point deficit in the 1st half, to win 75-63 (margin ballooned by Ohio State fouls in the last minute). Result, seems to me that USC now has the least challenging route to final four, with their #2 Ohio state out and the region #4 Virginia Tech hobbled by loss of Kitley. But, of course, USC still has to get to the sweet sixteen, will see about that tomorrow. And that potential #3 in the region is U Conn. So not yet a sure thing for USC. That would be a tough match-up for me, USC vs U Conn. I don't want either to prevail, but would be going for USC on sentimental Pac-12 grounds.
In the meantime, now that one #2 is gone, let's leave it at that as far as #2 seed upsets are concerned!
