AUSSIE, AUSSIE, AUSSIE! OY, OY, OY!
Don't look now, but the boys from Down Under have overrun March Madness. No fewer than five Australian big men are playing key roles on tournament teams. The All-Aussie five:
Andrew Bogut (56) -- ESPN.com's National Player of the Year leads the best Utah team since the 1998 national runner-up. The 7-footer collects 20.7 points and 12.2 rebounds per game.
Daniel Kickert (57) -- The 6-10, 240-pound St. Mary's forward averages 16.6 points and 6.6 rebounds per game, and shoots 48 percent from 3-point range.
Alex Loughton (58) -- The 6-9, 240-pound Colonial Athletic Association Player of the Year averages 13.9 points and 8.1 rebounds for Old Dominion. In the CAA final he dropped 28 points and 11 rebounds on Virginia Commonwealth.
Chris Cameron (59) -- Louisiana-Lafayette's 6-11 center contributes 8.1 points and 3.4 boards.
Martin Iti (60) -- Charlotte's 7-foot Sidney native chips in 5.2 points, 4.1 rebounds and a lot of blocked shots.

Bogut is only a sophmore and was the national player of the year. he is something else, a big man who moves like a guard.
he would easily be the #1 pick in the NBA draft if he comes out.
