As a fan of a team who manages to somehow always go up against that one buzzsaw or the white-hot Cinderella in the postseason, I can relate.

They really do. It is uncanny. The Mo Williams team being rudely introduced to Antonio Gates is the one that immediately comes to mind, even more than last year.

On the flip side, y'all's 2004 team wiped out the Josh Childress Stanford team in the second round, which is one of the more surprising second round tournament games that I can ever remember.

But I do think Auburn matches up with UConn strangely well. Might be an interesting game if some things happen to go their way.

UConn is one of very few teams who can both outathlete Auburn and outcoach Auburn, and I say this as someone who really likes Pearl (Louisville should seriously consider him, IMO) and thinks Auburn is really good.
