Here are three games to keep an eye on today:
(#3) Xavier v. (#14) UGA.
The Dogs, fresh off the remarkable win in the SEC Tourney, are the low-ranked 'BCS' conference ever (at least since the field of 64/5 was established in 1985.) They are hot and confident, and are considerable more 'athletic' than your typical 14-seed (cf. Boise State, Cornell, and Cal-State Fullerton). Xavier meanwhile, after a strong regular season, lost twice in the last two weeks to St. Joseph's (helping the Hawks earn a bid); while the X-men are balanced (6 players average in double figures), who will be the go-to guy in crunch time?
(#10) Arizona v. (#7) West Virginia.
Arizona is widely seen as the 'last team in' because of their 0-2 record against in-state rival Arizona State, and losing record (8-10) in the (admittedly strong) PAC-10. There's no doubt who WVU looks to at crunch-time: 6-8 F Joe Alexander, who led the Mountaineers in scoring and rebounding.
(#6) USC v. (#11) K-State.
Although OJ Mayo appeared on the college scene to much fan-fare and chagrin, his freshman season has been overshadowed by other freshman (including cross-town rival UCLA's Kevin Love.) While Mayo turned in 20.8 ppg, 3.8 apg, and 4.6 rpg, the Tournament is 'Go-Time." On the K-State side, freshman Michael Beasley (26.5 ppg/12.4 rpg) is one of the reasons that Mayo's season has been quiet. But doubts remain about the Wildcats' depth and coaching.
Bonus Level of Intrigue:
(#5) ND v. (#12) George Mason.
Question: Can the Patriots recapture the magic?

He was asked why he won't join some of the "cool" coaches who have Twitter accounts. "I'm not cool," Hoke said, smirking. "I've never tried to be cool."

Pasqualin added: "Rino has a strong sense of his Italian identity. This is the most di.Aliexpressite gusting and unjustifiable of insults." This, though, has been vehemently denied by the Spurs camp, with Redknapp quoted in the Sun as saying: "This is a case of someone playing the race card, trying to deflect from what happened. Joe is not, and never has been, a racist. "There is no chance of Joe saying that. He has the utmost respect for Italy and their people. Italians are among his close friends, he speaks the language and is a great admirer .ite soccer of their way of life. "Joe never said anything. Why anyone would come out with this, after Gattuso has apologised and called his own behaviour inexcusable, is beyond me." Redknapp has also hailed Jordan's composure for not reacting to being headbutted by Gattuso. Redknapp said: "Only a real man can take violent abuse and not react. Only a real man can keep his fists by his side when he is attacked. Only a real man refuses to get dragged down, despit.ite soccer store te being grabbed, pushed and head-butted." "In the face of unbelievable provocation at the San Siro, Joe kept his hands to himself while Gennaro Gattuso had him by the throat. "He did not lose his rag when Gattuso shoved him, he did not go in with fists swinging when Gattuso shocked us all with his head-butt. "Joe took the lot. And now some people are trying to paint him as the villain of the piece, when nothing could be further from the truth."
At the final whistle of Tottenham's memorable 1-0 victory at San Siro in the Champions League on Tuesday night, Gattuso confronted Jordan on the touchline and butted t
