mid-major mania

Aside from two 11 vs. 6 games, this hasn't been an upset-strong NCAA Tournament ... as of yet. Still, no Final Four has ever featured all four No. 1 seeds, so at least one of the top dogs will collapse, logically. The question is: Whom? And when?

Lost in the more relevant arguments about the monumental nature of Oklahoma State's slide backwards in the Big 12 this year is another issue - the real reason YOU, and anyone you know, should root for the Cowboys to make the Dance.
