I’m obviously making the assumption that my first round picks will be correct so based off those picks this is how I have the 2nd round playing out. The doubles records and stats are as of Thursday so if the guys win or lose a match on Friday the numbers would change.

I didn’t think Oklahoma and Baylor could top some of their previous meetings but they sure tried their best today.

While Baylor’s #1 team of Julian Lenz and Diego Galeano would pull away for a quick 6-1 win its #3 team of Vince Schneider and Felipe Rios would lose its early 3-1 lead and would find itself down 4-3. After an exchange of...

Championship Sunday is here and 2 of the 3 will be available over the air with Fox Sports 2 televising the Big 12 Championship LIVE and ESPN3 covering the ACC Championship (weather permitting). The Virginia/Wake Forest match gets underway at 10am so it should be over by the time Oklahoma and Baylor tie it on for a 4th time. Illinois also has a live stream of the Big 10 Championship although they don’t have sound and the picture is just so-so. #1 Oklahoma (23-2) at #2 Baylor (21-4) – 1pm est – This will be the 4th match of the year between these 2 with Oklahoma having won the first 3. I’d expect nothing more than epic fight...

What a day of tennis in Waco – 2 semifinal matches played simultaneously on adjacent courts with both coming down to a 3rd set tiebreak to decide it and they both finished within seconds of each other. It’s too bad those FoxSports cameras weren’t in operation today because it was rough trying to watch the conclusion of the Baylor/TCU match due to the streaming video being reduced to freeze-frame video. As a side note, for those that were wondering, it was confirmed today by Baylor that PlaySight will be installing new HD cameras with sound in time for the NCAAs so the viewing public won’t have to be subjected to any more of the...
