South Regional

One more, then the Final 4. Note: the Final 4 breakdown will come later today, but I’ll post the results early.

9 Xavier Musketeers vs 5 Tennessee Volunteers
Greater than, less than or equal to.

Coonskin Cap > the Cowboy-lookin’ hat with the one side up
Rifle > Musket

OK, that wasn’t very in-depth, but other than the dude on the Princess Bride, I’m pretty sure I’ve run out of musketeer knowledge.

3 Texas A&M Aggies vs 7 Nevada Wolfpack
The Aggies like to say, “Gig ‘em” which is a reference to frog hunting.

You go out at night, drink beer, and stab them with a spear.

But they say this about Longhorns, Owls, and every other type of animal.

If they aren’t afraid to stab those animals in the head with a spear you gotta think they won’t back up from some wolves.

And I think wolves are afraid of fire.

Aggies Advance

5 Tennessee Volunteers vs 3 Texas A&M Aggies
The term Volunteer goes back to one of the wars back in the day, but Tennessee had lots of farms.

Lets let Alabama determine this, not the Crimson Tide, but the country group, from "Song of the South."

Well momma got sick and daddy got down.
The county got the farm and they moved to town.
Pappa got a job with the TVA,
He bought a washing machine and then a Chevrolet.

So now we see that Tennessee gave up farming around the New Deal, meanwhile they were able to continue on out in Texas, being self-sufficient.

A&M is our second representative from the Lonestar State in the Final Four.
