>Actually, when you consider what a big business basketball is at most of the NCAA tournament schools, that's not a bad comparison. No athletic scholarships, no admissions just because you can play ball, etc., etc.

>Oh, I know, I was kidding. Obviously, it's apples and oranges to the Nth degree when you compare an Ivy League school to other teams that historically do well in the tournament. In looking back at the score of the game, Penn held their own in the first half against UNC, before the Tar Heels broke it open in the 2nd half. Personally, I'd love to see many of these teams clock some of the big-time schools in the tournament.


And they will. That's why I said pick the MAC teams through two rounds.
