Listen, would anyone truly be "shocked" to see all lower seeds pull off the "upset" the next two days? We no longer live in an era where the college basketball world is turned upside down by a Ewing-led Georgetown loss to Villanova. Parity is the definition of the college basketball landscape; and though we expect the "heavyweights" to make the tournament each and every year (a sad sigh for my Florida Gators), we also expect the one or two "mid-majors" to make at least the Elite Eight. We no longer live in a world with one or two Gonzaga's, but maybe five or six. Hey, if you were a highly recruited high school player, wouldn't you find it kind of cool to be able to play for a Davidson or George Mason and prove wrong the expectations of all the so-called "pundits" and "forecasters?" Hell yea!
