was my bracket completely blowing up. I decided to have fun and be biased with my bracket this year, and had Kansas, Kansas State, Kentucky, and Texas A&M in the Final Four, with Kansas beating Kentucky in the championship game. Oops.

I'm guessing Vegas made out like bandits on the Northern Iowa-Kansas game; Northern Iowa was an 11.5 point underdog, and I'm sure the moneyline was outrageously skewed in Kansas' favor; talk about making out like bandits.

For what it is worth, Texas A&M is currently a 1.5 point favorite over Purdue, and the moneyline is only at -110. I hope we have a better showing than the Jayhawks, and while I realize this loss hurts the image of the Big 12 a little bit, you can't help but be thrilled for Northern Iowa fans; this is what March Madness is truly all about.
