USC vs. VCU - Tonight!

As you all know, I’ve been following all that is going on in Japan closely. While it is extremely sad, it is also extremely captivating and much like a train wreck – impossible not to watch.  That said, I think I need to switch it up and take my mind off of Japan for a moment and focus on something a bit more positive and fun.

Tonight, the USC Trojans take on Virginia Commonwealth University in a game that will ultimately reward the winner with a birth into the NCAA Basketball Tournament; at which point, said winner would play the Georgetown Hoyas.

It’s much like winning the lotto, but in order to receive your money, you have to sit through an entire GLEE concert.

Nonetheless, it’s awesome that after all USC has gone through these past two years, it’s great that they FINALLY have a chance to play for something – even if it may be short lived. After all, the kids have been playing their butt’s off all season long, and they deserve an opportunity to punch their ticket to the dance as they call it in college basketball.

USC does have a pretty good team, so if you’ve got some time tonight, check in at 6 p.m. (PST) tonight to catch the Trojans putting a good old fashion ass whooping on VCU.
