If they do, I'm rich and cashing out with a $2K+ March Madness Gambol run. If they don't, I'm even happier, and still probably cashing 4 figs, or close. :100points:

I'm rooting for Jay with all my might, please believe it. :sunglasses:

We couldn't have matched up with UNC even if Skal panned out to be decent.

When you get to this point in the season, you better control the paint and the glass. I hate it as much as all of us, but it's not good, guys.

Raftery just commended UNC for overcoming the stuff that's gone on and putting it aside. Wow. I expected them to pretty much ignore the blatant cheating, but I was almost embarrassed for them that they praised UNC for winning in spite of what's going on around the program. Ridiculous.

I am freaking despondent. Much more so than I thought I'd be.

I mean, I gave Syracuse no chance to win tonight but actually seeing this on the verge of happening is about to make me physically ill. It will really shake my faith if it does.

Please, Villanova. Please.

If UNC wins it, they will have faced the third-highest cumulative seed total (i.e., they'll have had the third-easiest road) since the tournament expanded to 64+ teams.

Deer lowered I feel bad for all of you that are despondent because North Carolina is playing Monday. Oh boo hoo they may win #6, gain another win in the all time wins list...it's not as if life your life has ended. Grow up for Christ's sake, you aren't 15.

STFU. It's a sports message board. People are going to ***** about sports. And they're going to describe it dramatically because it's the internet. Thanks, internet-sheriff, but the party's all under control...

UNC is going to win tomorrow. You can pound your chest and talk about how much you know basketball and how good Villanova is but it does not matter. UNC is winning tomorrow and it's going to suck.

My bad.

Morning to all and good tidings. Happy to report I'm healthy, there's food in the cupboard, taxes were paid off months ago, I'm not paycheck-to-paycheck, and my job is still secure. Worried about Africa though, any reports if people there are still starving? My heavens, what a dire situation I've heard it is there.

In less pertinent communique, good luck to the Tarheels of North Carolina and the Villanova Wildcats. Hoping for a well-battled game and may the best troupe win.

Much more interested in UNC's climb up the all-time wins vacated list than the outcome of tonight's game. I'd gladly give them tonight if it meant that they had to cross off all of 2005. Ulis-level wishful thinking, but still...

I get what everybody is doing proclaiming UNC the champ already, but Im still picking Nova. Bunch of upperclassmen city kids from the NE playing their best basketball of the season, I like their chances. I do fear Ochefu getting in foul trouble, seems like almost a given it will happen.

At least there's WrestleMania tonight. You can order the WWE Network today and watch for free. Just remember to cancel before next month if you do not want to get locked into the $9.99/month subscription. The Rock will be on the show in some capacity. John Cena as well and I'm sure that Stone Cold Steve Austin will probably factor heavily into the McMahon drama. They have noticeably downplayed Austin's involvement in this show which means either he's on the outs with them (he's not) or he's gonna play a part in a major angle.

Ne-Yo for One Shinning Moment, NCAA? Christ was Humpty Hump or Antoine Dodson not available?

Come to think of it, A. Dodson may be worth a ring if you're gonna go all-in and bastardize the montage.

Had there been an Oklahoma-UNC final a UNC win would've given me a nice $1,000 payout. However, now that it's Nova-UNC the payout is same no matter what.

Really was on edge about potentially subconsciously cheering for UNC for the $$$. Glad I don't have that thought creeping around in the back of my mind now.

Nova is dope AF.

In the last 12 national championship games, the team I was rooting for is 1-11.

I'm rooting for Villanova.

Ergo, they will lose.

You can't argue with science.

The B12 FINALLY gets a non Kansas team in the FF, for the first time in over a decade - and they proceed to lose by 44? :joy: Great league, that B12, great league. Maybe they can get every single team in the tourney next year.

The UNC thing is triple maddening. They should already be serving their post-season suspension, but of course, they lawyered their way into a delay by throwing some other sports under the bus. Then they face about the easiest road to a title game in history. UK NEVER, EVER gets those breaks.

Then Nova goes out and shoots their wad in the OK game (reminds me of UK vs Wake in 2010). 100% stone cold lock they are cold as ****, and lose their front court to foul trouble immediately. Basically a replay of the Illinois game, where the refs touched Illinois in the *** right out of the gate.

The list of Champs since Cal got to UK has been absolutely unbearable, and this will pretty much be the icing. What's interesting is those 4 schools have also had massive scandals. Well, Duke's scandals should have been massive, but the NCAA and media are up K's ***. The 2010 title is absolutely fraudulent, and they had a gd rapist on last year's team. Pretty sure 'Jah was into some shady **** as well.

Maaaaaaan, fck the NCAA.

UNC is favored by 2.5, which basically they'd win 6 out of 10 against Villanova.

Just hope tomorrow is one of the other 4.

UK football is getting commitments at a level we've never seen before. We're not just beating out Louisville, vandy, USCjr, WVU, etc for kids(which would be an upgrade over the previous staffs recruiting). A lot of these kids can go anywhere they want. Richardson and King are both absolute studs, Mac Jones who has been bumped to a 4 star just won *another* rivals camp MVP over a couple guys ranked ahead of him. I could see him having a Landon Young type trajectory rankings wise. Of course we need to hold on to everyone, but it seems like every week there's a new commit with ridiculous offers coming on board. Our offense is going to make absolutely nasty here in a few years with Jones, Koback, Warren, Richardson, the Oline projects to be one of the best in the SEC in a couple years. Not to mention the DL/LB we're getting on board. This staff is recruiting with a plan, filling needs while also taking the best available athletes. Have it on pretty good authority that as long as we appear close to turning the corner (bowl game would seal it) then Wills will be coming here. Who would've ever thought that UK would have two 5* tackles protecting a 4* QB from Florida? Sky is the limit here guys...
