Congrats on the big win! If only Mendez-Valdez was still around - I'll never forget that guy from the epic Gonzaga/WKU 2nd Round tilt.

Just imagine him in the classic WKU/Drake game in the 1st round the previous year, the game wouldn't be near as close as it was.

Re: WKU upsets #24 Vanderbilt 76 - 69
Side note to the game: WKU's win over Vanderbilt was the first win over them since the early 1940s. 
This game was played for the 1st time since 2001! Shame that it has been that long since they played each other. Bunch of scared Commodores, maybe it will be another 10 years before they play again so that WKU can gloat about the win.

True. On a side note, Slaughter is a beast!
