Three ACC teams and zero Big 12 stands out.

There'd be 2 PAC teams if it weren't for you and your meddling Dookies!

I started a thread too, but let's stick to this one. That other one led me down a dark dark hole of emotions.

Two great matchups tomorrow. Would love for ND to knock off KY, but that seems unlikely. Pulling for the Badgers over AZ, and I think they just might get that done.

Me too. I really like the way Pitino and Izzo gets their teams ready for the tournament. For both of those teams, the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts. the winner will lose 1st round of the final four...just too much talent on the remaining teams for great coaching to cover the weaknesses.

This the "game thread?"

Ahhh, it doesn't matter, I won't even be here.

I am still shaking my head as to how MSU is here, every cliche has been stated a million times but Izzo is just unbelievable this time of year. One of the worst MSU teams since 1998 and we are a win away from a Final Four berth. Amazing.
