This is Tom Izzo's 15th Sweet 16 appearance. -Kansas State is rolling, which is interesting considering they only had two players on their roster last spring (at the conclusion of the 2021-22 season). -The guys preview each of the Sweet 16 matchups. -Also, Bill went to a Fish Fry and Sip has an update on the new Village Inn Show sponsored by GANA TRUCKING

A 15-seed beating a 2-seed is why March Madness is so great…but it’s no reason for anyone to consider a massive college football playoff expansion..right? Mar 17, 2023

Show notes

-It’s not every year a 15-seed beats a 2-seed, but it happened yesterday when Princeton beat Arizona, 59-55. And we saw 13-seed Furman beat 4-seed Virginia, too -We do see upsets like this in the 64-team college baseball tournament…what’s the MAX of where it’s respectable in college football? As Bill pointed out yesterday, you’re never going to see a team like San Jose State beat Alabama in football in a playoff format. -Also, Bill’s Thrills (sponsored by MidPlains Advisors)….Movie Clip Friday!
