"It's Awesome Baby with a Capital A"

Yes sports fans college basketball is back for another rollercoaster of mid-major upsets and bracket busters. If this season will be any indication of the preseason exibitions, get your popcorn ready, because it's going to be a show. Small schools like Gardner Webb have knocked off preseason top 25 teams stiring up questions of who will stop Florida from becoming the first team to make it three straight titles. The late rounds of tournaments were filled with school not predicted to even make the tournament this year. #10 Duke Knocked off Marquette in the Maui Invitational. #13 Michigan State nearly lost to Mizzou. The past four seasons we have seen schools that are known to be stepping stones for the BCS schools like Gardner Webb, Univeristy of Wisconsin Green Bay, and Gonzaga have placed themselves in contention to make a run at the National Championship Trophy with appearances in the rounds as far as the final four. Unlike college football the mid-majors receive an automatic bid for winning the competition. Though these schools rarely receive a top 25 ranking in the first few months of the season, the fact that they have the chance to be there the end of the year takes all emphasis off the number one ranking. How about this, Since those members of the NCAA Board who run Basketball allow all teams fair chance to be called champs they help run football and everyone will be happy.
