Horrific end of game play by Xavier at the end of this game. They will get what they deserve when they lose.

UConn hires Dan Hurley. Great for me, because I rarely watch American conference basketball so I won't have to see his whining face on the sidelines at URI anymore.

Caleb Martin looking like a pro in this Loyola-Nevada game. It was ugly, but it picked up at the end.

Hilariously, Wichita State leaves to MVC because they wanted to be in a multi-bid league and MVC sends a team to the Elite 8 anyway, lolz.

I think it's funny when other MVC coaches subtweet Wichita State, but their rationale looks pretty smart, and personally I'd save my ire for the selection committee that continually underseeds MVC teams. |

I haven't seen Nevada play this year and missed their first 2 games in the tournament. So I'm watching last night and thinking to myself, "Wow! That guy is incredible. He's everywhere!" Much easier to be everywhere when there are two of you. |

Sorry you didn't read a page or two back Marmel, defensive teams should have their programs blown up.

Either way I get some sort of a win tonight. Not a fan of Syracuse, but would like to see them beat the Dookies.

I just need Nova to get to the Championship game to win one of my groups. There's a pretty good chance at least 2 of the 3 refs are in the same position as me. That double technical was terrible.

Just wish it was a fun underdog and not Syracuse. (No offense to this current years team, maybe they are a good "underdog comes together later in the season" story, but they're not a historical upstart & the Boeheim snippets I've heard make them sound pretty bad to watch play.)

If I get Michigan, Nova, and Kansas to the Final 4 with a Final where Nova beats Michigan, I will win my pool and several hundred dollars.
Now that Clemson is out, that's what i need.

It looks like we're one Michigan loss away from a garbage final game.

Not Villanova or Duke or Kansas.
If Texas Tech somehow gets through, I suppose KState or Loyola or FSU might make that interesting.

I guess I just don't see how it's foregone that it's impossible to see one of those teams do something similar to what Syracuse just got done doing, playing Duke close. YMMV.

I see no reason why Loyola couldn't give any team a run for their money. It's one game.

I just saw the second half. Was Kansas State running a one pass and shoot offense for the whole game?

That look when you had FSU +4.5 and they ask why you didn't foul in the final 20 seconds...

My espn bracket jumped from 22% to 61.8%

Michigan faced a 14, 6, 7, 9 thus far and need to beat an 11 to get to the finals.
Jevon Carter played in 3 sweet 16 games over his 4 years and each year faced a 1 seed with a combined record of 102-5. |

If Nova gets a lead late, with every single starter over 70% (and 4 of the 5 over 80) it’s going to be almost impossible to haul them back in.

Grayson Allen's refusal to get the ball to better players cost Duke this game

I refuse to sympathize with Duke, but man that was an awful, game changing blocking call against Carter.

For all the upsets, we've got 2 #1s, a #3, and Loyola-Chicago.

Don't disagree, but he also should have picked up his 5th on that baseline play when he bumped the KU guy who ended up getting called OOB when neither the ball or his foot ever touched the line. |

He almost hit the shot, but yeah it was painfully obvious to everyone that he wasn't going to pass and that made defending a lot easier.

It might very well blow up on me tomorrow night but, dammit, I'm pretty f'n proud of myself for being ranked #461 overall in the ESPN women's bracket thing.

Yeah, yesterday finally brought my women's bracket crashing back to earth. Still 76.8% but my delusions of grandeur have ended.

University of Texas-Arlington fired Scott Cross for some reason or another. Maybe they got tired of 20-win seasons? Keep an eye on him. Helluva coach and wouldnt be surprised if he got one of those higher-level mid-major programs.

My daughter goes to UTA so I've been following the team this year. While they did underachieve based on projections, I thought they played very well and a 20 win season is nothing to sneeze at. Not sure what the administration is looking for as far as results from the team. Will be interesting to see whom they bring in and where Cross ends up. |

He really hurt Iowa. I thought it was a great hire. But he is a hypocrite and a sham. I was glad we fired him. What makes him look so good? He must be a great kiss ass.
