Yeah man. Jersey pride!!
Marquette really screwed me. If they had won (they got totally outplayed and outcoached by MSU and Izzo) I'd be killing it. I had them in the final game. Shaka Smart can kiss my butt.
I think UCONN is the favorite in a tough bracket. UCLA would be my favorite, but they are too injured (although Amare Bailey is emerging as a superstar an who knows how that goes).
That was wild
I never watch college. Are they a rival to your college or do you just hate them?
Plus I still hold a grudge from the 2001 tournament when they beat us at the buzzer

What a heartbreaker for UCLA. Again…with their regular lineup, they win that game easily

With Bona, they definitely win. Not as sure with Jaylen Clark. Since he has gone down as unfortunate it has been for him personally, Amare Bailey has really really stepped up and showed how good he can be. If Clark was still there, not sure he would be getting the touches as the second/third option behind Jacquez. Gonzaga also just literally shot themselves in the foot in that game to a degree where you don't deserve to win games. Unforced turnovers, missed free throws, etc. Timme for most of the game and Strauther at the end just bailed them out.
I'm guessing somebody lost all of their candy bars on this one
I guess that's the equivalent to me being ecstatic that the Arizona Cardinals or the Miami Dolphins were eliminated from the playoffs lol

Out of curiosity, how does one end up friends on FB with someone they don’t even know IRL? Or I guess the question should be why? There is all kinds of people out there with bad intentions on social media. I would never accept a friend request from someone I don’t know. But, I guess that’s just me
Gonzaga cause Mark Few deserves one
How many fans will actually show up at MSG tonight for FAU - Kansas State lol. I’ve been getting emails from msg all week asking me to buy tickets.
I’m not looking to whine, it is what it is UNC didn’t even qualify after a disgusting meltdown of a year - just think some of these matchups are disappointing. If they were on a Saturday afternoon during the season you’d obviously flip the channel.
Both teams have great guard play.
Committee was mediocre at best this year seeding - Purdue and Miami the clear mistakes (over and under respectively), but in general the committee did its usual overseeding of mediocre big conference teams.
I have Texas as the NC so I can't be mad. Also can't be mad that most of the teams left play really pleasing brands of basketball with fantastic guard play. SDSU I've watched all season and they are the tough team of dudes.
Big East - 2 teams
ACC - 1 team
MWC - 1 team
MCC - 1 team
Conf USA - 1 team
Obviously the Big East and Big 12 look good after this, the other big conferences look overrated.

Answer: He sent a request and I accepted it. The year was 2009 or so. He never deleted me and I never deleted him probably just out of laziness.

Haha, fair enough

There's a whole side conversation that can be had about the Big 10, a conference that is too stubborn to see the way that big-time collegiate basketball has changed and hamstrings its basketball, whether intentionally or not.
