Final from Sunday's NCAA second round game at Minneapolis:
  
Iowa State 82, Michigan 79
  
For the second year in a row, Michigan loses to a team it should have 
beaten.  Obviously the shot clock didn't help that much.  The tournament
unfolded for them exactly as last year - barely beating a patsy in the 
first round ( last year Farleigh Dickinson, this year Akron ), then losing
in the second round.  Does this mean that Iowa State will win the national
championship?  Probably not, but you never know...
  
On a brighter note for us Michiganders, Michigan State showed they are a 
team to be reckoned with by trouncing Georgetown 80-68.  State has a very
tough test next, as they play #2 Kansas.  If they can manage to knock off
the Jayhawks, they are Final Four bound. ( Prediction: Kansas by 8  :-( )
