Stanford may well still be the best team in the nation. Unfortunately for them, they’ve spent all year playing in the PAC-10, and had to face an underrated team early in the bracket that played the toughest schedule in the nation all year long. It didn’t go so well for them.
Alabama: 70
Stanford: 67
Final
Bring on Syracuse.

Aren’t they playing the ‘cuse next? Mmmm…orangemen
!
[Time to bring out my regulation Syracuse basketball shorts!]
Yes, in fact, they are… I’m not quite sure what to make of the match up, but ROLL TIDE anyway.
Bastards screwed up my bracket. Congrats though, they played well.
You and everybody else in the nation… I was looking at some message boards after the game and I think pretty much everyone had Stanford in the final four (at the very least).
