What a crazy day, huh? Four games, four wins by the lower seeds. I bet that’s never happened in the ACC Tournament before. Of course, that’s a pretty easy bet since until a couple of years ago, the only days with four games were Fridays and four upsets would have to include an 8 or…

If you want to join in a Dave Sez NCAA Tournament Pool, go here (Yahoo!) and sign up. The Group ID is 54269 and the password is amphibious. No money, no prizes. Just pride and trash talking cred. And that’s really all you need. Two years ago, we got 27 entrants. I’m guessing we can…

For those of us stuck at work for the next couple of days (and next week too), I’ve found that it’s mighty handy to find radio stations that stream their broadcast on the Internet. I found a couple of stations last year that do this, but I guess I didn’t save the links. Does anyone…

I don’t really know what it is about Duke, but man do people hate that program. Even more, folks hate a lot of the individual players. I think it’s some combination of winning, hustle, arrogance, overexposure and whiteness that does it. Yes, whiteness. For some reason, the most hated player around is always the other…

If you want to hear the dulcet tones of my smooth radio voice, tune your computer into http://nowinla.com/channel_preview.asp?id=1262 this afternoon at about 2:45. That’s when I’m scheduled to be on Grant Thompson’s Internet radio show Sports Pulse. As you might imagine, we’ll be talking college hoops, I assume mostly about the ACC. We’ll probably cover…

As you probably heard, the ACC released it’s All-ACC Teams yesterday. The first team might be the least controversial in ACC history. It’s especially surprising with twelve teams to choose from now, but the top five guys were pretty much a given – Tyler Hansbrough, Jared Dudley, Al Thornton, Sean Singletary and Zabian Dowdell. They…

C’est fini. Done. The regular season is yesterday’s nose … er news. All three of the ACC bubble teams did what they had to do over the weekend. Was it enough? For Georgia Tech, I’d say probably so. They beat Boston College for another solid win and that pushed them to 20 wins overall. Still,…

In the world of electricity, there is a mathematical calculation called root mean squared (RMS). This is the way that we measure the voltage of an alternating current. When you plug your TV into the the 110 volt plug in your wall, you are really getting voltages rising from +165 volts to -165 volts. The…

Evidently not everyone is enamored with this little bit of statistical onanism, but I think it’s still fun. I’m not really sold on the accuracy of Log5 predictions, but I’ll give Ken Pomeroy the benefit of the doubt. I’m sure he’s looked into it. Anyway, here is an update to last week’s preliminary Log5 predictions.…

This will have to be quick, so just a few observations before the chart. I think there are now six ACC teams who are absolutely in. All could lose out and still get bids. Georgia Tech is back in right now, but not for good. One more win would probably do it, either this weekend…
