March Madness truly begins this week with 30 conferences determining their tournament champions. Cinderella comes in all shapes and sizes... and beginning tonight with four bids on the line, the slipper comes in the form of a sneaker.
Looking for a Mid-Major Conference team to make some noise in the Big Dance? The easy choice: Gonzaga... Mark Few has the Zag's Zigging at the right time, plus they have a wealth of NCAA Tournament experience. For my money, though... I'm going with Davidson (owners of a 21-Game Winning Streak as well as a Lonely Heart) and (Love The) Drake. The Bulldogs won the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament yesterday and are heading to the NCAA Tourney for the first time since 1971.
