Your Cinderella Is Cornell!

Not many schools can say they are "smarter" than Stanford, but the Cornell Big Red probably can. Cornell is the first Ivy League school other than Penn or Princeton to make the NCAA tournament since 1988.

The Ivy League has won just two tournament games in 23 years. Still, the Big Red have been dominant ... going 21-5 and sweeping the conference slate. Their main man is Ryan Wittman ... son of Randy Wittman, the former Indiana Hoosier who is currently the head coach of the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves.

For you zany people, you just like rooting for the Big Red. That's what is so cool about the Ivy League anyways: the Big Red, Dartmouth Big Green, Harvard Crimson and the Brown Bears. Colors everywhere!

Also, they are a smart bunch ... obviously ... and they are playing another smart bunch. But only the Big Red players can say they are Ivy Leaguers. So, turn in your sheet and tell 'em, "Go Big Red!"

You can learn more about the Big Red here in their FanHouse preview.
