[QUOTE="Captain Bubbles, post: 1382626, member: 522476"] Hi guys! It's been a while. Hope you remember me! The matchup no one is talking about: #4 Auburn vs #13 Charleston. I have picked Charleston to upset Auburn in my brackets. The majority of Charleston's players are back from last season. Consider them one of the most experienced teams in the NCAA Tourney. A story that I think you'll find interesting: I was at the Illinois vs Nebraska game about a month ago. First time I had been in the SFC since it was remodeled. Great win for the Illini, yet the coolest moment of the trek was at the entrance gate. There was this tall boy standing behind me who looked to be anywhere from 13-15 years old, along with this woman and a little girl. I heard the woman say her son is on the Illini Men's Basketball team. I turned around and asked her who it was. She said Greg Eboigbodin. Turns out, the boy and girl are Greg's siblings. We chatted for a bit. Greg's younger brother is about as tall as me (6'4"). She said it took them about 6 hours from Detroit down to Champaign to watch her son play. Great folks and she also told me Greg has enjoyed the college life thus far and playing basketball for the Illini! [/QUOTE]
