I hated to see St. Peter’s go out like that. St. Peter’s looked like an entirely different team from their prior games. I certainly expected a much closer game and that UNC would have to work a little more for the win.

Now it’s on to NoLA, to face Duke, where I was an employee and am now currently attending grad school.

... St. Pete's game. N.C. used their size to hammer St. Pete's but Purdue didn't.

BTW My pick is Villanova ... they pass the ball better then I have seen for years.
