Lower seeds will be playing over the next two days leading up to Tennessee, Auburn, Florida and Alabama taking on the winners Friday for the quarterfinals. The semifinals are set for Saturday.

Recently while home sick, I got to watch the news just like you — a viewer! And I have to brag on my co-workers. Not only are they great people and journalists, but they are also tremendous advocates. Look no further than the recent reporting by Amanda Roberts and Jennifer Kraus. This kind of reporting takes dogged commitment. To us, it's always more than a story; this is our home too.
