So of the final 3 teams still playing, zero, zilch, nada, are from the West Coast. Excellent.

After we won the MIVA tournament over Lewis, he had his team #1, Lewis (who swept his team on their own floor) at #2, Pepperdine #3, and Loyola #4.

Loyola's on the West Coast....of Lake Michigan.

There once was a loser named Kniffen
Who with the women would always be whiffin'
He asked one why had had no luck
When looking for a girl to f@@k
She said 'Your upper lip ain't all what needs to stiffen."

Even though I was a bit irked to see Loyola get hosed in the seeding process, I was happy for the potential to play UC-Irvine in the semi-finals. Completely destroyed them today! How did UC-Irvine get the #1 seed? Psh...they'd be a third seed at best...in the MIVA. At least Pfeiffer challenged us a little.

By they way...anyone else notice Jordan Hicks in the stands?

Just a quick correction. UC Irvine was not the #1 seed. Lewis was.

Lewis was the #1 seed in the tournament, UC Irvine was #2. In the latest RPI (released on the Monday AFTER the NCAA tournament teams were announced on Saturday) Loyola was #1, Lewis was #2, and UC Irvine was #3. Yet UC Irvine was #1 in the last AVCA poll (widely used as "the national rankings," voted on by coaches, and exhibiting a strong bias toward MPSF teams discussed in many threads on this forum).

Correct. I was just referring to the comment above that said UC Irvine was seeded #1. Now we have the opportunity to beat the top ranked team AND the # 1 see. GO RAMBLERS!!!!!

Congrats, Ramblers!! What a great win. Smoked those guys. Now it's time for MIVA-geddon IV!
