My bad

Kansas seems to be on the verge of blowing this one open, but the Hawkeyes are being pesky.

On another note, I owe ESPN an apology. All throughout this game, there has been a constant hum of what sounded like the sort of pre-pubescent shrieking one might expect at an old-school Britney Spears concert. And I was convinced that ESPN was adding the "crowd noise" as a means of making the game seem like it was exciting.

But it turns out, it is "School Days" at KU, and there are several hundred busloads of elementary students at the game. Hence the shrieking. So I'm sorry for even thinking that ESPN would tamper with the production like that.
