Posted by: shari at March 16, 2004 05:14 PMI see the madness reaches far and wide... I've work for a Blue Devil and a Wake Forest alum, plus we've got folks from BYU, Michigan State and, of course, yours truly from UT. I personally am expecting the 'Horns to bow out early, so I'll be excited and surprised if they make it further down.
