Quote of the Day: ESPN
Regarding today's first round NCAA tournament game, South Carolina vs Cal State Northridge:
"South Carolina is new to this whole No. 1 seed thing, so maybe the Gamecocks didn't fully understand the deal.
You aren't really supposed to come out and play a close, competitive game in the first round of the NCAA tournament. The way it usually works is you overmatch and overwhelm the No. 16 seed and get yourself warmed up for a long tournament run. Nice and easy, no drama required.
You shouldn't have to look up at the scoreboard and see Cal State Northridge within four points well into the second half. And the Matadors certainly shouldn't be within two possessions of a tie with less than four minutes to go."
