Go Shockers!

Though in reality, I only see UK losing if they beat themselves.

LSU took `em to the wire a few weeks ago, as did Georgia last night - mediocre teams both. The Cats have earned this year's overall no. 1 seed, but they ain't no `72 Bruins.

I figured this was another crazy weather thread.

Roundball?

I can't get excited about watching a bunch of huge men play with their huge balls.

Carry on. Enjoy the game.

When does F1 start?

As beleaguered as Florida has been this season......they also gave the Cats a very competitive game in their first match. And they meet again this Saturday in the last regular season game. Then the SEC Championship begins.....and they may meet again.

That said I agree with Matt - they can only beat themselves at this juncture and I too look for them in the finals.


I hear ya, Glen - my #1 sports passion is college football but that's essentially over now until the fall so I'm milking what I can get. College BB is the most fun when your team is in contention, of course.

Still can't believe that UVa is #2. Looking forward to the ACC and NCAA tournaments.
Go Hoos

Ohio State shows moments of brilliance, but not nearly often enough to be consistant, or a contender.

Virgina has now lost Anderson with an appendectomy.

Some great games on today:

Florida get's their leading scorer back today against #1 Kentucky. Florida is 15-15 and faces 30-0 Kentucky in the last game of the season. Go Gators!

Good luck to you and your team!

I'm liking Arizona but its just don't seem right not to have UConn in the mix this year...

31-0. 9 to go.

They did lose a game this basketball season, so anything is possible.
Kentucky Wildcats Official Athletic Site - Men's Basketball

WSU sucked it up, KU lost in a great last second put back by OU. I love college basketball.

2 losses for Virginia this year.

Bring on the Tournaments.

Current NCAA bracket has as # 1 seeds:

Virginia
Duke
Kentucky
Villanova



And here's the SEC Tournament bracket


Good luck to your team!

Ohio state is getting their butts handed to them by Michigan State. Dayton squeaked past St. B. Cincinnati is still in the game.

#11 Notre Dame over #2 Duke right now....33-17.

~5 minutes left in the first half. (ESPN)

Hmmm....Gonna be in Jax (deep sea fishin' trip)???

40-0 is TOUGH...they're obviously "the best"...but that's why they play the games.
A HUGE accomplishment if they do...


I used to love to play the game....not that there's anything wrong with that :p

I'm afraid the ACC tourney (as I've always loved it) is a thing of the past although there are still great games being played. I caught Tues. games in the Coliseum and it'll be several years before it returns back. Remember when "time stood still" as the ACC tourney was being played....no mas :(
