    Tech? Hate 'em. AtM? Hate 'em.

    I'm out of Texas teams to root for.

    Always bet on Syracuse when they are an underdog. Never bet on them when they are favorite. That is 30 years of consistency.

    I'm a Big Ten guy and wanted Michigan State to win, but a team that misses their last 13 shots doesn't deserve to advance.

    I’m a Wisconsin guy and I’m happy Michigan State lost. I would have been far happier had things turned out better last night...

    Michigan State shot 25% from the field. It would have been a disgrace if they actually won that game.

    Anybody here watch Texas A&M much this season? If so, please explain how they didn't run away in the Big 12.

    I've never seen UNC physically dominated like this, ever. If A&M plays this way going forward, they could beat Nova.

    Oh well, so much for that.

    Why didn't they win the SEC?

    If there is one thing that will make up for U of H losing last night, I’d love to see UMBC beat K State. Not sure if it will happen, but no one saw them beating Virginia.

    Like I said they had injuries and suspensions to important players RIGHT @ around the start of SEC play, lost the first 5!! games to start 0-5 and got all the way back to 9-9 in SEC play. This win saved Coach K's job, health permitting, no question.

    Nevada just pulled off one of the best comebacks you'll ever see.

    Tournament is crazy this year.

    Media is spamming Eric Musselman's kid.

    Take this kid off TV!

    They’re only down 5 at half. Lots of good looks early that didn’t fall. This is going to be a fun 2nd half!

    Syracuse is highly underrated right now. I'm studying there and have watched every game. Their defense is incredible, but ACC teams can figure them out. Might be blown out by Duke this week but if they manage a win, they could go far. This team deserves to be in the tournament despite what people say. #16 in SOS, wins against Clemson, Louisville, Buffalo, Miami and VA Tech, and only one bad loss all season. Always bet on Orange!

    Keenan Evans, the PG, is very good. The defense is very good. TTU is very athletic. However, they have problems with Tall, skilled post players. If Purdue Engineering can come up with an elbow prosthetic for Haas, it's going to be a problem.

    We have another 7'3" lanky shot blocker even if Haas doesn't play. But that dude isn't known for offense
