Again, Georgetown University finds itself in the news, and not in a particularly good way. Its men’s basketball team, ranked 3 in the Midwest bracket, dropped a big lead and got bounced by the upstart N.C. State Wolfpack.
The Hoyas have not exactly played the role of Beast of the East in recent years. In fact, they’ve proved themselves pretty easy meat for a hungrier squad looking to fill up on confidence.

Will he order up another win? His team faces the second-ranked Kansas Jayhaws, a team many bracketologists have picked for a Final Four spot, but this has become the year in which Cinderellas race around the brackets like car-hops on jet-powered roller skates, so they at least have a chance. Tun in Thursday to find out how they do!
