A member of the Spokane tribe, Ronald "Buzz" Gutierrez built his casino on the reservation 50 miles northwest of Spokane, Wash. His dutiful daughters tackled every job in the joint: opening the doors to eager gamblers at noon, flipping burgers, dealing cards, counting cash, mopping floors, and locking up at 4 A.M.

Since then, those two powers have collected seven more championships between them, while Stanford's program has struggled to keep pace. In 2004, '05 and '06 the Cardinal made it to the Elite Eight, only to be stopped there every year. Last season's exit was even more distressing as Stanford, second-seeded, lost to 10th-seeded Florida State at home in the second round.

The last two years the football team handed the Razorbacks back-to-back humiliations (combined score 120-31). The Trojans' 77-60 win tonight was more of the same, making the Hogs' unlikely trip to the tournament a short one. While Arkansas had a significant height advantage, they didn't take advantage of it. Taking coach Tim Floyd's keys to the game -- defense and rebounding -- to heart, the Trojans held the Razorbacks, 35 percent 3-point shooters, to 15 percent shooting from the arc. Most significantly, they outrebounded them 39-26, a stat that Floyd admitted surprised him.Sat, 17 Mar 2007 06:20:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/pete_mcentegart/03/15/ten.spot/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/pete_mcentegart/03/15/ten.spot/index.html1.
