I must admit, I was rooting against STATE for selfish reasons.  Our one year wedding anniversary is this weekend so I selected Oregon to win on my NCAA bracket with hopes that Christian would return home to celebrate.  With the way my bracket looks after the first round, I should have picked STATE to win - it's Madness!

Although, I'm a little disappointed that Christian won't be home until Monday, I am happy that WAPT's live coverage from Little Rock will continue and STATE will get to play for a chance to be a part of the Sweet 16, a potential first for Coach Stansbury.

Who knows, maybe I'll head up to Little Rock to join the celebration.  Nothing like sharing your one year anniversary at the NCAA basketball tournament - there's a first time for everything right?
