Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

Tomlinism Tournament Semifinals Match 1


Remember, both Semifinals are being posted back-to-back, so vote for both!...The amazing 12-Seed, upset winner over both the #5-Seed and then the 1-Seed, now has to face the biggest winner percentage-wise yet in this contest, the 2-Seed, who annihilated the 10-Seed with 76 percent of the vote over the overwhelmed #10-Seed.  The #12-Seed edged the #1-Seed in a vote so close the folks in Florida are nervous again, 50% to 49% in a thriller.

Wow

I didn’t think this one would be a blow out!

Disappointing for the 12 after that huge upset, but they were clearly playing above their level and are just too exhausted.

Don't worry about the haters. Haters only hate.

I bet against the spread tho

I never thought blow out. #3’s coach definitely prepared for this matchup

Agreed, the 12 seed just doesn’t have the postseason experience that a veteran like the two seed has. It is really showing in this matchup.

It’s hard to keep up that level of intensity and not rest on your laurels as a low seed. Congrats to them for making it this far.
