So the Men's tourney officially got underway last night with the yawner fo a game between Mt. St. mary's and Coppin State. Now we can ge tto the real action on Thursday. For me the most intriguing first round matchup is Kansas vs. Portland St. Out of all the 16 seeds, Portland St. is by far the best. They are the only 16 seed NOT to have 10 losses, and they have won 5 straight games. Statistically, KU is a heavy favorite to win this game, however, KU has been known to choke in the past during the tourney, and Portland St is in the best position of all the 16 seeds to do just that. The numbers are modest for the Vikings. BUt they have the more dominant inside presence with Morrison. However, they are a smaller team as the Big Sky champs only have 1 center and KU is equipped with 3.
Still, this is the most intriguing first round matchup because Portland St. can keep it interesting. I doubt they will topple the mighty Jayhawks, but it will be fun to watch them try.
