"Send it in, Jerome!"

While the Terps lost in the first round of the ACC tournament, they should be fresh for the Big Dance. What I am really excited about is the dream match up of Pitt vs. Georgetown in the Big East Tournament Championship tonight at 9:00 on ESPN. I saw the teams play at the MCI center on 2/24, and it was one of the best regular season games I have ever seen between two of the best matched conference rivals in history. The Hoyas are ranked # 9 nationally, while Pitt is at # 11. This will be the Panthers' fifth conference championship game appearance in six years. In the immortal words of Demetrius Gore, "People, Pitt has arrived."

On a semi-related note, here's video I found of Jerome Lane's backboard smashing dunk against Providence in '87 at Fitzgerald Field House.
