I don't think Tennessee wins their opening round game. 

Not a big fan of most of the Big 10+ teams and SEC teams. Won't be surprised if by the end of the weekend both conferences only have 1 maybe 2 teams left. The big 12 on the other hand could have 4-6 teams left.

Don't  be surprised if the big east and big 12 dominate the round of 16 with few others.

K State damn near pissed away the game last night. Ran the shot clock down on their 2nd to last possession in regulation without passing and attempted a three from the edge of the March Madness logo. Did the same thing towards the end of overtime. Is Nowell their only player they trust in that situation?

K-State didn't need a three. Nowell just shoots whenever he feels like it I think.

Towards the end of regulation they could have iced the game if they had run any kind of offense. Instead Nowell just dribbled the ball above the key for for 95% of the shot clock. That will get them beat in the next round.

If I had made a bracket, which I never do, I would have picked Texas to win it all. 
 

We are ok to wear jeans on Wednesday with a college shirt and jeans on Friday with a school shirt. OU week and this week I switched it up, school shirt on Wednesday and Texas shirt today. They all know I’m a rabid Longhorn. Longhorn lanyard, multiple Longhorn shirts, Burnt Orange Allbirds, etc.

Texas is playing their butts off right now.

 

Hook ‘em!

Got some interesting elite 8 games to see who is in the final 4.

UConn vs. Gonzaga

K-State vs. FAU

Texas vs. Miami

SDSU vs. Creighton 

I thought that if UConn could get to the sweet 16; they might be the favorite to get to the final 4.

Is the point guard for K-State able to go in the game against FAU? This could  be one of the most entertaining games to watch.

A lot of posts, like several of mine, are missing from this thread, weird.

My Elite 8 Bama, Arizona, Duke, K St, Miami, Texas, Kansas and Gonzaga.

My Final 4 are Arizona, Duke, Texas and Gonzaga. 

I have Texas beating Duke for the NC.

With all the upsets, I still have a chance if Texas wins it all.
