Is this how it's going to be all day?
Western Kentucky's Ty Rogers just hit the shot of the entire tournament, an ungodly bomb from the right wing to beat fifth-seeded Drake at the buzzer in overtime, 101-99.
I watched it from one of the far tunnels, and my ears are still ringing.
When the game went into overtime, the Drake Bulldogs mascot, Spike, gave me a weary pat on the back as he walked through the tunnel toward the bathroom to take off his head, which is the size of a large beanbag chair and about as comfortable to wear.
He skipped back out, refreshed, with three minutes left in overtime.
After Rogers' shot, Drake's Jonathon Cox stayed on the floor on his back for about half a minute with his arms over his face. Can you imagine what that must be like, with a CBS cameraman holding the lens two feet from your face?
