I actually have grown to really enjoy the "First Four" games and can't wait for the best Sports Event in the World to start in just two weeks! :D

RANT moved here LOL.

I really hate that the Conference tournaments are so important to determining the League champ and who goes Dancing every year. There are tons of instances of lesser teams winning the end-of-year Tourney and a great team from a Lesser conference not making the NCAA Tournament. Sometimes, home court plays into it too, which is really not fair. Way too much emphasis placed on them. They make money and ratings for sure, but they'd still do that as a mid-year "break" which would count as Conference wins. The Super Bowl bye week is pretty open for sports event scheduling.

happens every year. Someone gets in and someone does not. That is why that want to make the field larger (like Leon, what movie reference is that from) specially that more teams can be in it Also more money to be made then :lol:

With two days of Games left, it looks like 2 of the 4 #1 seeds are decided...

For the first time in Years, I cannot make one real complaint about the Committee's selections or seedings...

Great looking Bracket!

Kinda sad that my Dark Horse, Iona, got only a #15 seed pitting them against OSU, whose Coach, himself from a small school, is too good to let them look ahead...

Except for a period when they couldn't hit a shot during the 2nd half, Western Kentucky University played their hearts out against Kansas. They played some stellar defense, especially during the 1st half and final few minutes of the 2nd half.
