Weekend Encore
This weekend was thrilling, mostly in the college basketball world. On Saturday, 11 top 25 teams lost. Georgetown came into Philadelphia and knocked off the 7th ranked Villanova Wildcats. Louisville got a nice win on the road in 2/OT versus UCONN to patten up their resume. BYU got its second loss on the road at New Mexico despite Jimmer Fredette scoring 32 points. Sunday was just as crazy as Saturday. Duke lost by 15 to St. John's in the Garden. The Heat's Big Three came together in Oklahoma City as they got the win 108-103. In a rematch of the NBA Championship from last year, the Celtics and Lakers faced off at the Staples Center. The Celtics got a tough win on the road. In other news, Bubba Watson took the Farmers Insurance Open over Phil Mickelson. To wrap a crazy weekend up, the NFC got their third Pro Bowl win in the last four years.
