hahahahahahaha

texas first gets a 5 second penalty call when they cant inbound with 14sec left. then commit a foul on a basket with 9 seconds left. 70-69 zona, texas misses game over.

This has been the best NCAA tournament I have ever seen. The tight finishes, the upsets, my 3 favorite teams all in the Sweet 16.

This really is a great tournament. Despite it being very watered down, it's been exciting and there have been a lot of surprises.

Kansas was looking like men among boys for a second, but Illinois is making this a game.

Terrible call by the refs. The players count the time by the hand gesture and he messed it up. Other game refs called a rebounding foul 80 feet from the basket with .4 seconds left.

I don't like games being called by poor officiating in the last seconds. Ruins the game.

Can't see that happening. Ohio State looks so dominant, it's hard for me to see anybody beating them.

.0001% shot :D

It would be cool though.

Winning 6 in a row is a massive guantlet...like no other sport.

Can't believe I read on this site that there exists an american sports fan who thinks march madness is as boring as it gets. I think he said he did not like soccer, yet felt soccer was more exciting. Never have heard that before and doubt I ever will again.

As for the Ohio St comment previously. We see it every few years--a team that looks dominant getting ousted due to one bad game and an on fire opponent. The Buckeyes do look good though.

Well, it was only George Mason. They haven't played any heavy hitters yet.

I've got OSU and Kansas in the finals...

That would be an amazing matchup...

Well Cas, OSU is 34-2 this season. You don't get to that mark in the Big10 without being pretty good IMO. Time will tell. In order to get to the final 4, they will have to beat Kentucky and either Carolina or Marquette. If they do that, I don't think there will be any doubt. The East, by far, is the toughest bracket IMO.

Yeah, the east IS the toughest bracket. Both Carolina and Kentucky are decent but don't have the absolute elite teams that they sometimes do.

I picked OSU to win it in my bracket (how original on my part) but assumiing they make it out of the East, there is still a very good Kansas team potentially waiting. Duke with Kyrie Iriving back could be tough too.

The could have to beat Kentucky , UNC, Duke (or UConn), and Kansas...that is no picnic. I could say quite possibly all four of those opponents would have finished either 1st, 2nd or 3rd in the Big Ten.

well, one of the teams ohio state lost to was purdue, and VCU completely trashed them! im starting to think maybe VCU is just a good team that got overlooked, i could easily see them make the final four a la george mason, their bracket is not very difficult
