I haven't filled out my bracket yet; tomorrow I'll start doing it one region at a time as usual. But right now my musings:

-North Carolina is basically playing home games. I think I'm taking them to the final four; they looked very good against Clemson today
-MSU got fucked
-UCLA :bow

Oh yeah, UK actually made it.

Damn, there go all of my taunts to fellow UK fans about how we ran Tubby out of town just to advance ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE.

Bolded for TRUTH.

Honestly I'm thinking about filling out a bracket where the championship game is George Mason vs. Kentucky

i've never really been interested in college basketball.

what times do the games usually come on?

They start thursday and they pretty much go all day from noon onwards until one in the morning. Rounds one and two are always the most interesting to me, that's when all the cinderellas show their faces.

George Mason for the upset? Hell yes!

Eh, I won't screw around with the bracket anymore. My final four

UNC
Georgetown
Texas
UCLA

UCLA over UNC

My final four is the same as it was earlier but I changed a bunch of other stuff. I've got Louisville over Tenn., Pitt over Memphis, and USC over Wisconsin.

Never really got the big appeal of college sports, unless you tend to go to one of the colleges involved (my school was division 1 but frequently the worst ever at sports)... why not just watch the pros, instead?

I do watch pro sports; I love the NBA and NFL. But imo there is no sports tournament that touches the NCAA basketball Tournament; March Madness is amazing to me. I also love NCAA football and cheer for my team (go blue).

Yes, there's nothing more exciting then NCAA basketball. NCAA football is up there, but the BCS is so fucked up that it takes all the fun out of it come championship season

Yup  :lol

My bracket was already taking a beating too, and a UCLA loss would have devastated me. Losing Pitt sucks too; I had them in my elite 8.

Tomorrow should be a bit more straight forward, with higher seeds winning. At least I hope so. Duke  :'(

If UCLA lost, I'd be down 3/4 of my final four :lol

Well, I'm glad I called WKU getting that far in the tourney, because otherwise that entire regional bracket would be fucked for me.
