Everyone loves the underdog, until it's your turn to play them. Kentucky knocked Cornell from their carriage made from a pumpkin Thursday night, to put their Cinderella run to an end. Cornell, the first Ivy League school to reach the Sweet Sixteen in over 40 years, said all the right things after the game. James Conway Wentworth III, a Senoir forward for The Big Red, talked about the experience, "It was great while it lasted. Going to the NCAA tournament and actually winning a couple of games exceeded our expectations. We couldn't be happier with our season." It seems all the players in Cornell's locker room were playing the "experience" card, Junior guard, Lawrence Keaton said, "it was fun. I wouldn't rank it up there with my Rhodes Scholarship or my nomination for a Nobel Prize in Nuclear Physics, but being in close contact with real African-Americans was something I'd never experienced. Well, except for the staff at my parent's house, but they don't count as real people, do they?" With Cornell's loss, the Cinderella tag fell straight onto Northern Iowa, who hung tough against an injury-riddled Michigan State, but in the end couldn't hold on. Northern Iowa's coach made no excuses for the loss, but when asked why they were beaten, he only said, "They were just too black for us. Damn, they were good". That leaves Butler as the only true underdog left in the tournament. They'll take their team of Jimmy Chitwood look-alikes to the court today against Kansas State, in hopes of carrying the momentum from their upset of number 1 Syracuse with them. Also on today's schedule, a real Hatfield and McCoy battle as West Virginia takes on Kentucky. Some fans throughout The Appalachians are are already having marital issues over backwoods loyalty, one fan said, "When we got married, I told that no-good cousin of mine that this was a Kentucky house. Now she wants to pull for West Virginia. Well, that tooth-less whore can have West Virginia. It's over!" It was getting pretty heated until we calmed him down with a mayonaise sandwich.
