    How are those brackets looking?

    Am I crazy to think UCLA is going to win it all?

    My bracket is currently at 74%. I truly thought Princeton was going to knock off Notre Dame. They almost did...but almost doesn't mean anything

    A Championship game between the Carolinas would be awesome.

    Yeah.

    It is unreal Bill Self still has a job.

    The way KU choked against Oregon was one of the biggest chokes of all time.

    Bill Self is a loser.

    He wouldn't even have his only title if Memphis St. could shoot FTs.

    Self is a loser and Kansas is a disgrace.

    Yeah, that would be cool if UNC played South Carolina for the title.

    Of course, So. Carolina is a -6.5 dog vs The Zags.

    UNC is a -5 fave over Oregon, and if the Ducks pulled the upset and The Zags won, you could have an all PNW Final.

    Yea that would at least make this crazy tournament even crazier. Since all the teams I had in brackets are toast, I'm rooting for the under dogs.

    Gonzaga/Oregon would also be a classic matchup.

    Of all of the Final Four teams, N.Carolina would be my least favorite winner.

    Any of the other 3 schools would be a major Cinderella story.

    I want NC to win and see what the NCAA does to promote it. NC the only state the NCAA loves to hate.

    NC is obviously a heavy favorite.

    They are the Goliath.

    And everybody loves an underdog, so a lot of people will be pulling against them.

    An excellent half from Gonzaga considering they have the lead despite missing seven or eight point blank shots.
    If they start hitting those the game will be no contest. As it is they are controlling the boards also and N. Carolina
    has to take the apple out of their throats and Roy Williams needs to stop panicking on the sidelines.

    Gonzaga by six points.

    A predictable ending where the program with Championship Pedigree rose to the top.

    Multii million dollar athletic factory beats little Jesuit college from Spokane. The Zags had a great season and with a few lucky breaks could
    have easily won. But they didn't so better luck next year and I'm anxious to see who comes onto the squad then to replace some big names.

    Zach Collins paid the price for the NCAA's foul calling fetish Monday evening but in a larger sense everyone who watched that game
    paid a price too by getting such a choppy and tedious viewing experience.
    I thought it was absurd.
