Cornell looked nothing like a team that had won 16 straight games going into the NCAA tournament by getting absolutely humiliated by Stanford.  I don't think I've ever seen a game where a team shot 16% in a half.  Now I can't say I was expecting Cornell to win, but I was expecting them to put up a much better showing than they did.  After all, they had held their own against Syracuse and Duke on their home courts, and even beat a Siena team that had beaten Stanford early in the season.

As bad as it was (and believe me - it was *bad*), it still wasn't the worst performance by a team that day.  That distinction belongs to Kent St., who scored 10 points and had 17 turnovers in the first half against UNLV.
