Then I want Oregon, UVA, KU, in that order. One of those teams must lose. The last one that I did not mention.

If having a basketball mancrush on Tony Bennett is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

Last night was the first time in over 25 years I didn't care 1 bit about the tournament. Having none of the teams I root for left in Kentucky, Ohio State or Xavier and then add in the fact that all the mid majors were gone as well left me for the first time in my life that I can remember not caring 1 bit about what happened. Sure I rooted against Duke and Kansas but that just wasn't the same. Just about the same thing tonight about the only real game I care about is Gonzaga but they are no longer the lovable mid major from years past so it isn't really the same had it would have been to root for a team like SFA who would be called a true Cinderella. Just a really tough year all the way around.

These games have been awful in the Sweet 16 so far.

I'm not even watching until a game is actually decent to close.

Pretty amazing chalktastic tourney as it progresses. Number one seeds dominant. Making the committee look good.

Gonna be UVa-UNC KU-Oregon, final four
How ironic if so. All year, the story has been no great teams, which made for predictions of an even crazier tournament than normal. Like 2011, when the final four teams were seeded 3, 4, 8 and 11 (I think). If we get 4 ones, only second time ever IIRC.......

Yeah I'm iffy about OK/Oregon though.

Lots of unattractive matchups for the Elite Eight if you ask me, but that's what happens when the committee assembles such an awful bracket.

I'd actually LOVE to see Gonzaga make a big run out of nowhere. Don't think they'd beat UVA if they win tonight, but UVA strikes me as a vulnerable team (although their kryptonite of Michigan State is gone). It'd be funny if this was the year Few got to a Final Four.

Wouldn't bother me at all to see Wisconsin go to the Final 4. That would mean IU and UNC were done and I think it would be funny if they went to the F4 the same year Bo Ryan quit because they were sucking.
you know, I was thinking I'd hate to see them in the FF again, but your argument is compelling. It would be hilarious

How is a guy open there?

Wisconsin would be the perfect opponent for IU if they beat Carolina.
