KY vs Wich... What a freakin' game!!!
Glad Kentucky won, but Louisville will be beating Kentucky next!!
That Kansas game was awesome too. Stanford played like pros. I hope to see more #1's and #2's taken out! |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
I saw that - man oh man you wanted Kentucky to win and bam! Wichita is gone! Wow |

| That blew my bracket. I am a sucker for the under dogs. Bad day to be a Wiggins and be in the state of Kansas. First Wiggins and Kansas goes down then his Brother goes down with Wichita.
As far as D1 College goes I am a Stanford fan, I hate Cal "Berkley" because of what that city represents. So it was nice to see Stanford pull it out.
When Kansas started pressing I could not believe how poorly Stanford controlled the ball and turned it over. It was a struggle for them just to advance the ball past half court. They were very fortunate to come away with the win. I doubt Dayton will have the All American Athletes like Kansas.
However, it will likely still be a tough game. What I like most about schools like Stanford is all the players are real students. You don't have a bunch of guys who never attended a class. I won't name name but you listen to some of these NBA and NFL players who actually graduated talk. Sometimes you wonder who was doing all their homework. |

| Yea, I sometimes wonder if that play in game can help certain teams find their rhythm.
Tennessee is definitely making a run and playing some solid basketball. |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
Dont think Tennessee can do it but they will go far in |

Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
since we have 16 teams left, it may be easier to talk about the remains of the tourney.
Florida vs UCLA - i think Florida will win it
Dayton vs Stanford - no clue, but i think this will be one hell of a game. i know the wichita/kentucky game was good, but i think this may even top that. you got 2 schools with ghetto rankings looking to show others whats up. i think dayton is hungrier, so i think i am leaning towards them
Virginia vs Mich St - i say Mich St mostly cause they look good, and i do not feel like Virginia was deserving of their seed
Iowa vs Connecticut - no opinion
Arizona vs San Diego - i think Arizona will trample San Diego
Baylor vs Wisconsin - not positive, but i think Baylor will pull it through
Kentucky vs Louisville - hard to say this because i love both schools, but Rick Pitino (louisville coach) has won their last 11 sweet 16 appearances. Pitino is def a better coach than Callapari. Plus i think louisville can win the entire touney. i do not think kentucky can win it all, but i think they can beat louisville. i believe louisville will win this one, or at least should
Tennessee vs Michigan - no really sure. i think Mich is stronger, but i would love to see #2 seed gone so Louisville or Kentucky can have an easier game. i am gonna pick tennessee on this |

It is not suppose to be easy. :)
And if you filled out any ESPN or Yahoo only a few have done well with all these upsets.
Even Vegas is going nuts. |

It happens every year. That is why Warren Buffet can offer a Billion dollars through his Quicken Loans company to anyone who gets a perfect bracket. As crazy as Mega Millions or Power Ball odds are. You have a better chance of hitting that than getting a perfect bracket. |

| I was really expecting a more tight game. Dayton pretty much ran the whole thing flirting with a 10 pt lead the entire time.
Baylor game was disappointing. I thought they would have done more.
Really, really, really was hoping Florida would have gone down, but I guess that's why the are numero uno. I am really shocked UCLA did not do more damage with those big boys. |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
Louisville failed - Virginia lost - what a night |
| bjammin | 03-29-2014 11:30 AM |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
I am so disappointed that Louisville lost. I like Kentucky, but I really wanted Louisville to win that game. Virginia was a closer game than what I thought. |
| bjammin | 03-29-2014 11:34 AM |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
And then there was 8
Florida vs Dayton - I think Dayton is still hungry, but unless they are starvin' like Marvin, they are done after today. And I think they will get slaughtered by at least 10 points.
Michigan St vs Connecticut - Michigan St looks stronger to me
Arizona vs Wisconsin - No clue, I have not watched either team play too much, but I'll say Arizona since they are #1 seed
Kentucky vs Michigan - since Kentucky beat Louisville, they better beat a couple more. So Kentucky FTW!!! |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
Wisconsin took it in OT.
Game over for Dayton |

Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
Shuts those Big Ten haters up real quick to see the B10 doing so well.
ESPN poll leader has only missed 3 total games the entire tourney.
Amazing. |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
Kentucky owned it - UConn through...top seeds struggling.
Looks like Gators can take this |

| Kentucky always gets the best athletes. Calipari has the be the best recruiter going as he took Memphis from nothing to being very good and now at Kentucky has multiple NBA players he recruited himself.
His freshman class is outstanding and if any of them stay he will be very good next year.
Being from Florida I would like to see the Gators win it but still see the coaching job Calipari has done with all these kids and can see them being tough to beat. |
| Sandy D | 03-31-2014 01:06 PM |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
Wow
The two leaders on the ESPN poll has all final four teams picked.
One has Kentucky winning it and the other Wisconsin winning it.
Almost impossible to pick these 4 teams to be there at the end and these two people did it. Amazed. |

Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
@sandy
I wanna see a KY/FL championship game. I think Wisconsin is a very strong team, and I think KY will have there hands full. BUT....I think KY will pull it off. I hope to see FL demolish UConn. They have played great, but I do not think FL is gonna let them win. I think Fl will win by 10+.
Again, I wanna see that KY/FL game. FL has handed our arses to us a few times this year, and I think revenge will be ours if given that chance! |
Re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too)
KY could surprise Wisconsin with their fire right now |

| I would also.
That player from Uconn is on fire. He will be one to watch. |
