I'm thinking it'll be UK vs OSU. And you know which way I'll role, I'm anti-Wild Kitten to the bone.
If the Buckeyes beat the Kittens in the championship, I will happily sport whatever signature the CandyMan makes me rock. Anything but giving Calimari a championship

if ohio state beat kentucky for the championship, it'd be comparable to the buckeyes beating miami in '03. They were nearly a 2 touchdown dog in that game.

I think Buford is going to try and play the best of his life the next two games. I refuse to believe he will let himself go out like a punk.
William Buford to you is like Vanderbilt basketball to me. You let yourself believe, you think every game (or in my case, every tournament) is going to be different. This is going to be the one they prove themselves!
Well, ask my bracket how that works out
he has the one game every now and then against the premier opponent when they are all over him and he's just knocking everything down.
i'm hoping he saves that game for Kentucky because if we do manage to get past Kansas, we are going to need it.
He pisses me off. Sometimes he will miss a wide open 3, then he will make a tough Kobe Bryant type of fade away with guys all in his face.

Ah ok... (shows how much basketball history I know)
well partly I was joking but also I hate Cali... great coach, but he just seems slimy... and he left two programs with crap except NCAA violations while he moved onto bigger pay days....
but all that aside- should be two great games today

Plus the guy came into UMASS, gave them a few good seasons and then crowned UMASS the King Of New England. Newsflash Calimari, Conn is the King of New England.
That's why I love whoopin that team's behind (UMass) year after year. Gives me a chance to laugh at those Massholes.
One thing I love about Coach Calhoun, he came to CT and made the program a powerhouse when it was nothing. As loyal as they come, kinda like Jim Boeheim (who, while our rival, I respect). Same thing with Coach K. Where as Roy Williams, why'd he ever leave Kansas? Like that's not a big enough program? He'll always be number two to Dean Smith
And Calipari, he just leaves the program right in time for them to get NCAA sanctions

I can understand Williams going to NC. He went to school there, is from NC, and was mentored by Dean Smith. Kind of his dream job to coach where you got your start under a legend.

Didn't know this, makes sense to me now. Either way, I don't like Duke or UNC. But the team I hate most above all is the Kittens.
Probably because of their coach, the one I despise above all coaches, Calipari. So, I'm rooting for Louisville (although I always go for Big East teams when Conn is out. Some people don't get it, but I always want my conference to do well)

tipoff for the ohio state game is 8:49 but that's only estimated right? there is a decent chance it could be moved back a bit?
I have a game at 6:10 (CST) and am going to have to get undressed, showered, and on the road in record time today.

Worked out for everyone, UNC got their guy, and Kansas ended up with Bill Self, who's a hell of a coach and perfect for that job.

As long as "she" is good with the jigger. I hope that word doesn't get me in trouble.
Looks like she has pretty big arms, but also other parts. What bar is that??? I like bars if you never knew that.

Louisville has missed 13 layups and dunks, the Cardinals most in a tournament game during the last three years.

If they don't get past Kansas.....SEC,SEC,SEC!
But if the Bucks lose to Ky. in the finals......SEC,SEC,SEC! I won't be totally bummed....I'll be happy enough.

I think I win my office pool if it's Kentucky vs. Kansas. But, I'll still be rooting for the Buckeyes.
I love watching Craft play defense.
I am unfamiliar with this feeling of optimism

I'm in a pool with a buddy of mine, and the winning payout is about $160k. I'm still good after the Kentucky win. I had it dead on at 8 pt win.
Now to see Ohio State win. I got the score at 69-65.

Not a good end of the half for the Buckeyes on that last possession. Not sure I like having Craft be the guy who takes that shot. And then Kansas gets that transition bucket. Hate to give a team any kind of positive to take into the locker room.

Deshaun has to start making shots. Sully needs to stop taking dumb fade aways. We've had some silly turnovers. Buford has barely played. I have no clue how we are up 9 but I'll take it.

I agree. He is not taking smart shots. Buford hit some nice ones and then got into foul trouble. Hated Craft taking the shot at the end of the half, but all in all a good half.
