I know the poll system sucks. They did away with polls when we transitioned to WordPress about a year ago, and this is what we’ve got.
I’ll figure something else out for the semifinals.
BRIAN MANDEL
RAP SHEET:
—Texas man who lost a reported $80,000 bet on Louisville’s Nov. 8 overtime loss to Cal.
—Following the game, Mandel set threatening messages to Jeff Brohm, Brian Brohm, Miller Moss and three others.
—Mandel messaged Moss (among other things): “I’m going to spend the rest of my life making yours miserable. You cost me $80,000 last night You can either pay me or suffer the consequences. You your girlfriend and your parents. They will all suffer.”
—He messaged Brohm (among other things): “I am going to find and kill you and your entire (expletive) family you piece of (expletive) …”
—In February, Mandel pled guilty to one count of terroristic threatening in the second degree, a felony. He resigned from the Corpus Christi Planning Commission after his indictment by a grand jury last November.
vs.
INDIANA FOOTBALL
RAP SHEET:
—Should have played us this season, but bought out of the game for a million dollars.
—We would have definitely beaten them and ruined their perfect season. Probably. Maybe. Would have been cool to see.
—Had the most unthinkable rise to prominence of any sports team in my lifetime and set the bar absurdly high for programs like Louisville who are desperate to rub elbows with the top tier of college football.
The final four will be set in 24 hours.
