FOR MARQUETTE, THIS HAS BEEN THE CAL STATE TOURNAMENT:

You'll remember that on Thursday, when Marquette was set to play Cal State Fullerton, we wondered aloud what the difference was between the University of California school system and the California State system. We're still not sure what the deal is, exactly, but something we learned: San Diego State is a part of the Cal State system, too, which makes it somewhat more defensible for a school named after a city to have "State" in its name. Somewhat.

THIS IS GOOD BEER. BOTTOMS UP.

We're not in Fullerton anymore, but we're never ones to mess with a good thing, so for the third game in a row, your Pint Touch is Great Divide Brewing Company's Titan IPA.
