How was that NOT a offensive foul on Zion? Feel bad for ucf played a heck of a game.

Heels took care of business doh! 😁
Lol, oh brother......let's not go to zionville :D

Thank you sir.
Good luck against Houston/Ohio St.
Honestly, I'm really worried if we wind up playin yall in the Elite 8.
Kentucky, imo, certainly has the team to win it all this year.
I was mildly surprised that we were a #1 seed.
But, to be honest, it has kind of been a free for all this year.
Like you pointed out a while back, theres really been no clear favorite.

Auburn and Houston are red hot, imo we both may need the skin of our teeth...

Yes.
But, imho, I'd rather play Auburn than Houston.
I watched Houston play last night. They're dangerous.
Kentucky vs Houston may be one for the ages.

I'm with you. Match ups are a biggie right now...

I just hope that Uk has nothing to do with this!

From ESPN: Federal prosecutors announced the charges against Avenatti less than an hour after he tweeted that he was holding a press conference on Tuesday morning "to disclose a major high school/college basketball scandal perpetrated by @Nike that we have uncovered. This criminal conduct reaches the highest levels of Nike and involves some of the biggest names in college basketball."

Poor, poor, Tennessee. Hated to see them defeated.
Had a feeling it was gonna happen after they blew a 25 point lead to Iowa and then had to defeat them in OT, to get to the sweet 16
And how about Texas Tech? Holding Michigan to 16 first half points!! Incredible....

I was in 2nd place out of 68 people in one of my brackets...but had Tennessee winning it all :o

Great comeback in that 2nd half, but my god that Cline kid could not miss for Purdue. That was an incredible shooting performance. I haven't had a chance to see any Texas Tech games this year until the tournament. That team is no joke! A great defense.

The Tennessee game was the game of the night! That 14-0 run then the crazy 3 point shooting for the Cline kid...soo clutch. This was the 1st year in 15 years I didn't get in an office pool, so I didn't bother to fill a bracket out. Probably good I didn't...

I think we can get past Houston tonight IF we get PJ back....they are another small team very guard heavy. Flip a coin...

Sorry brother. Such a gut punch, Auburn's playing lights out right now. I keep telling myself that the best team doesn't always win....Probably tell myself later tonight. Not really a fan of Bruce Pearl!

Im over this stupid tournament. Had 2 top 10 brackets going, but having Tennessee and UNC did me no favors. Feel terrible for those UNC kids. So much potential, just wasn't their night. Even though they are the better team.

Man...come to find out both Cam Johnson and Nassir Little were both very sick all week. Both had fevers of over 100°
Nassir didnt practice all week, and Cam couldn't even make it to the press conference after the game because he was throwing up.
Not trying to make excuses, but man that will take the wind out of your sails.
