March Madness Began Tonight In Louisville

Its been a miserable winter for most of the country. Rains and snow storms have pelted the nation through most of the new year. For sports fans who miss football season and can't wait for baseball season to begin, March could not have come soon enough. Its the month in sports where legends are made and total madness reigns throughout college basketball.

This Is March Madness, championship week, and the Louisville Cardinals gave us all a preview of just how magically mad the game of basketball gets in march.

In Louisville, Ky. the Cardinals hosted their final game at Freedom Hall after a 54-years history there. Their opponent was the number one team in the nation, the powerhouse Syracuse Orangemen. With 16:11 left in the game and Louisville down 40-37, coach Rick Pitino sent in forward Kyle Kuric, a little known 6-foot-4 sophomore from Evansville,Indiana.
