+University of Dayton takes down +Stanford Athletics men's hoops to advance to Elite 8. +Wisconsin Badgers made a statement by really never even giving the hot +Baylor Athletics a glimpse of hope. Badgers simply dominated to moe on to the Elite 8. Dayton will play the winner of the +Florida Gators - +UCLA Bruins and Wisconsin (2 seed) will play the winner of the +Arizona Wildcats - +San Diego State Athletics game. Both 1 seed vs 4 seed match ups.

We'll take the "smart" money on who we had in the national championship game for the last month or so and in a bracket. Gators vs Wildcats, but could it be a night for the 4 seed? Aztecs and UCLA could win these games indeed. Can't wait to see!

Early Games for Sweet 16 Tonight.

This is for Morgan Miller, of course, we are riding the Dayton High Life (+University of Dayton) Flyers, of course, although +Stanford Athletics might overwhelm with length. And as we have this bracket in tact, going with the +Baylor Athletics Bears, who are scorching hot, to take +Wisconsin Badgers in a high scoring game (not a lot of stiff defense with these two this year, normally, but nerves might affect that).

It's time for the #Sweet16! http://t.co/ZS4UtoNxux #MarchMadness pic.twitter.com/3rIoudbfWi

RGIII - No Brace Next Season

RG3 says it's "safe to say I won't be wearing the brace in 2014." STORY: http://t.co/BLiiNNH7wz pic.twitter.com/0IMaGgLzsM

Monday was a night +RGIII won't forget as his teammates voted him as the Redskins' recipient of the Ed Block Courage Award. But it was his comments afterward that made people stand up and take notice.

After spending all of the 2013 season wearing a clunky brace over his surgically repaired right knee, it looks like that won't be an issue in the fall.

"Safe to say, I won't be wearing the brace in 2014," RG3 said to CSN Washington.

The quarterback has a history of doing this, as he ditched a knee brace after spending a season wearing one back in his college days at Baylor. But what does that mean for Redskins fans?

Well, if things go to plan, we'll get to see an RG3 with a greater range of motion and possibly with more escape speed when he tries to scramble out of the pocket. But that remains to be seen.

For now, Griffin is just pleased to be able to work on his game and was honored by his teammates selecting him for Monday's award.

"It's a testament to my teammates to show me that they still have faith in me," he said.
