Morehead was my favorite!!! I suppose since I'm a UK fan they should be my favorite but Morehead's was sweeter. I've seen them play UK at Rupp before. Hard not to like the small school in the Appalachian mountains (where my best friend went)Nathan Bransford wrote:What a great day so far!! The buzzer beaters haven't disappointed.
I don't have a ton of faith in them actually, but since if they reach the final against Duke (or Texas) they would essentially have a home crowd, I figured it is worth a shot. Duke can lose a road game...Matthew Rush wrote:Nathan: Ohio State and Pitt, with no one scoring more than 70, in the final? Very interesting.
Bryan has a 1, 2, 4 and a 6 in the final four. That's what I call courage.
I find Vic's (Aspiring_X) trust in Georgia nice and quaint. I live in Atlanta, so I'm sure the local radio will be ecstatic if you're right.
And I'm glad to see Ted put his faith in SDSU. Any other region and I would have put them in the final four.
I wouldn't worry. I was busted after round 1 last year and then nearly won. If only Butler had pulled it off!trixie wrote:Dear Louisville...
You suck. You've ruined my chances at a query, thankyouverymuch.

Okay, it's only the first round.
Yeah, the committee likes to say they don't arrange certain matchups, but they are clearly lying. For instance, they put Memphis on Arizona because the Memphis coach was a player and assistant there.veela-valoom wrote:I heard it was good (even UK fans said that). I absolutely HATE that the past 2 years we've been put up against Ivy League schools. Princeton seems classy and they played great. I'd rather play someone else. I think the NCAA likes to pit UK as the "stupid kids" against the "Smart kids" of the likes of Cornell & Princeton. It bothers me that there is a lot of implication about UK players being stupid. Our point guard had a 4.0 coming out of high school and had a 4.0 his first semester at UK.Matthew Rush wrote:I'm looking everywhere for video or at least audio of the Sydney Johnson (Princeton's coach) post game conference. I don't care if you like basketball or hate it. It doesn't matter if you think the ivy league is nothing but a bunch of evil WASPs. It's inspiring. The video should be available soon. If you can't catch sportscenter, check Youtube tomorrow morning; it's not long, and it's worth watching.
I was also really irritated that Morehead had to play Louisville. Almost every time they make the tournament they put those teams against each other. Glad Morehead got the win but I'd like to see a different match-up.
(PS with Morehead winning, Kentucky winning and Louisville losing my state is very happy today).
