Where it rains. No, seriously.
If you are any kind of sports fan, find highlights of today's ESPNU doubleheader of Syracuse-Hopkins and Virginia-Notre Dame.

Tons of parity this year. Denver looks pretty good, Notre Dame is tough, and the Ivies are on a comeback.

I was at Homewood. Didn't think Hopkins had much of a shot. Especially with Petro out with a back problem. Midfield picked up the goal-scoring slack with Brown and Stanwick bottled up. And Sergio Perkovic is a beast.

Duke takes its first lead of the game at 15-14 against 'Cuse. Deemer Class has seven goals. Denver is also losing vs. Penn State and ND is losing to OSU.

I also threw this pathetic non-'Dog thread in the wrong forum.

Wild weekend. Top five all either barely survived or lost (Brown didn't play).

Shaping up for a wild tourney. Maryland is probably the best team I've seen this year. Loaded & deep pretty much everywhere, Tillman may be the biggest question mark.

Pretty much every TV game has been fantastic. Several in OT in the last two weeks.

Nice to see two of the Service academies get in, but sad that Bryant couldn't earn their 4th straight appearance.
Blew the NEC tournament. They lost to St. Joes during the regualr season which forced them on the road for the tournament. The team / season never really rebounded from the 3 week, mid season layoff thanks to the norovirus

Excited to be at Loyola on Saturday. Pat Spencer is legit and the crowd should be good with Duke visiting. Maryland is the best/most consistent team in the country. We'll see if that translates in the next 3 weeks.
