NCAA Tourney thread.
What a great tourney so far. Lots of great college basketball.

OU got a chance to take down Gonzaga? I think they do.

The Pac 12 is doing well. I think Oregon has a chance to knock off Iowa tomorrow as well.

I like the upsets that are happening.

Crazy times call for crazy hoops.
Some of the best basketball action to watch.
Teams that ordinarily do not play each other get to see how they do against other divisions.

Good start to play for the Ducks today.

Could they play another Pac12 team in the next round? We'll find out today.

Cheers~

Haven't watch any sports in almost two years but got the urge to see what Buddy Boeheim was all about after looking in on the online newspaper from the area where I grew up. I haven't been disappointed. 'Cuse continues to surprise. Big Grin

Yep, I think this is their tournament for the taking. Spokane is electric with the excitement of GU having a very good chance of a national championship.

I'm thinking Few has all the kinks worked out, and we don't have Karnowski around to choke this time, so.... Here's hoping.

My concern, and not just for Gonzaga, is this Covid crap. If one of these good teams has a key player test positive, they're done.

BWAHAHAHAHA.

It won't be easy for them from here on out. I'm sure they are up for the challenge.

Oregon State is becoming a surprise team. It'll be interesting to see how well they do against Houston tomorrow.

I think Michigan is going to make them earn it.

Michigan is a huge threat to the Zags run for sure. I'm definitely going to watch the Florida St. game.

The Zags are off to a great start against USC. I hope they keep it going. 49 to 30 at the half. Drew Timme is on fire and USC can't stop him.

Going to be Gonz and Baylor. Baylor to pull the upset is what I am going with. Been a great tourney.

I'm hoping that happens. When the Zags beat Baylor by double digits it will validate their being #1 all season. Smile

I think it'll be Baylor as well. They've been knocking on the door for a long time. It'll be a tough game as they are a scrappy team, but as I said above...Zags all the way.

The Pac-12 had a heck of a tournament. They do not get the press of the ACC, SEC, Big 12 etc. But they kicked some serious butt in this tourney. Smile

Interesting to see someone who had to play in the "First Four" beforehand (i.e. UCLA) get to the "Final Four" as well.

Has that ever happened before?
