As the Southeastern Conference was having a perfect night, going three for three in the NCAA Tournament, there was one guy watching with an interest different than a fan.
New Arkansas State University Coach Mike Balado was pulling for one of his lifelong heroes, South Carolina Coach Frank Martin, in a game no one thought the Gamecocks had a chance to win.
Baylor was too long and athletic for the No. 7 seed South Carolina, right?
Wrong, and Balado, with his belief in Martin, might have been one of the few who believed it would not be an upset.
