I was able to watch the first set of games in the 2008 NCAA Tournament, and they set the table for what should be a great tourney. I'll be gone 4-7:30 pm EST, so I'm going to miss a portion of the next couple sets of games. I watched Xavier-Georgia and Michigan State-Temple on the TV and March Madness On Demand.
The Spartans looked very impressive in their win over Temple. The game was not nearly as close as the 11 point final would make you think, Michigan State dominated Temple. Dionte Christmas was shut down and finished with more fouls then points. At the half, Temple's two leading scorers (Christmas and Mark Tyndale) had a combined two points. Michigan State is a dark horse to make a Final Four run.
Georgia-Xavier was much closer then the 73-61 final score. Georgia controlled the first half and the beginning of the second half, but fatigue set in and Georgia's shooters went cold. Josh Duncan really played a spectacular game for Xavier. I do think they will have some trouble if Purdue gets past Baylor.
