Loyola deserved better than a 8 seed. And to play GA Tech. Going to be a tough game.

Tech is HOT. Really, really hot. Blers haven't played a game in a couple weeks. Hopefully they don't come out sluggish.

That said.....Blers vs Illannoy in the second round....I would love Loyola to end the Fighting Illwhinei's season.

Hopefully this 5 day break lets GT cool off a bit. I do believe that Loyola actually is the better team of the two.

Remember that GT only had to play 2 games to win the ACC Tournament. They're playing well but they also got some huge breaks.

John Higgins fans will have to wait a year. He’s been ejected from the NCAA Tournament.

GT Coach announces one of his "tier 1" members of the team cannot travel to Indy due to COVID issues. No idea if its a player or a coach, so we're not sure what amount of impact it will have. Could be big, could be nothing.

Holy cow this is significant:

Georgia Tech star big man Moses Wright is out for both potential games this weekend, sources confirmed to ESPN. First by @GoodmanHoops. Wright will miss the first round game against Loyola Chicago and would also likely miss a potential second-round game against Illinois.

OK Ramblers, Drake got it rolling. 2-0 would be sweet and everyone needs the money in this Covid year.
