Day 2 tourney results costly

I was feeling pretty good after Day 1 -- the opening games in the second round of the NCAA Basketball Tournament. I finished 15 of 16 with my bracket picks, my only loss, the Harvard-New Mexico game.

But yesterday's games were a different story as I went 9 for 16. I mean, go figure! Florida Golf Coast over Georgetown. Give me a break!

I, of course, went with my heart and picked Arizona, California, Oregon, UCLA and Colorado to win and that scenario computes to 3-2. The Bruins were down a man against Minnesota and so were the Buffaloes as their main man Spencer Dinwiddie found early foul trouble and couldn't hit the broadside of a barn when he was in the game against Illinois. The young man, of course, went crazy when he played against the Wildcats.

Oh well, let's see what today brings.
