Credit to UConn. Never gave up. I have two out of the 4 - Illini and cheatigan.
The only team I have left is Arizona and I have them winning the championship. But UM looked incredibly dominant against UT. Both Zona and UM have size, are really balanced and well coached. Could end up being a classic. UCONN vs Illinois should also be a great game.
My daughter, who is ten, has a chance to win our bracket at work. She has UConn over Michigan in the final.
Nope. Though if I did, wouldn't make me cranky (plus that post was from yesterday).
That could happen. I didn't have UConn in the Final 4 but now that they are there they have a good chance.
You have to look at coaching and just overall mental toughness of teams. So with that I see UConn beating Illinois and not even that close. Hurley>Underwood.
I see Michigan beating Zona although it will be a great game. Just think May is a better coach than Lloyd and Zona has a history of losing big games in the tournament.
Then who knows but I can see UConn winning it all simply because they have the experience and probably Hurley>May.
I have not checked all combinations but I do know she is the only one who picked UConn out of the top group
I know that folks are focused on the men here, but on the women’s side, um had their a$$es handed to them tonight in the Elite Eight. That’s always welcome.

Yeah completely stunned by the decision by the Duke player to try to pass the ball up court. All he had to do was hold the ball and wait to get fouled.
Freshman mistake. I feel for the kid, he handled the aftermath with all kinds of class.
Takes a lot of bad plays to blow a 15 point half time lead
Hopefully Illinois doesn't hand the game over to the Crybaby like Duke did. And hopefully the Crybaby's luck runs out. Incredibly I might find myself pulling for Cheatagin over the Crybaby if it comes to that. Ugh!
