March Madness

[AshesAshes]

whos your pick to win it all????im taken arizona...i love too see unc take it though.

[Emopunkthrice]

I don't know yet the standings are always changing except for Illinois, UNC, and Kentucky

[BrandNew20]

My Favorite Team is UNC, I'd love to see them win it all and I think that they can. That being said, I think it would be amazing to see the Illini go 39 and 0 and capture the national title.

[punknskakid722]

I gotta agree I am gonna take ARizona, them or North Carolina

[somethingyellow]

Tate always runs one for the whole site.

[Sureshot182]

i'm really going for illinois, they've always been my favorite team and they are a great team. everyone is going against them and it would be amazing for champaign.

[selftitled85]

last yr i picked all the correct upsets in the first round. and then fell apart. i was able to recover for the final 4 and the champ. i picked uconn.

[AshesAshes]

Tate always runs one for the whole site.
oh damn him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!alright word thats cool..

[indieriot]

heels all the way

[YourLatestVicti]

Kansas anyone? Although I think UCONN has a shot, it seems that they have gotten real hot as of late so if they can carry that momentum they could go pretty far.

[PunkVideoGuys]

Kansas anyone?


nah man, they suck. UNC.

[Scott Weber]

i went to UA last year, dont pick arizona they arent even the best team in the west in my opinion
they're not even the best team in the Pac-10, Washington is far better. *shakes head*

Oops...

true, but washington isnt even the best team in the state of washington

[somethingyellow]

Gonzaga is washingtons best team easily :animateds

[Scott Weber]

Gonzaga is washingtons best team easily :animateds
haha, that's not true at all, but Ok. Gonzaga is really streaky and they're overrated cuz they play in a terrible conference. Yes, they beat us on a night when we couldn't shoot at all and our top overall player (Brandon Roy) was out with an injury, but ya know. I feel Washington would easily beat the Zags in the tourney if they were matched up. Washington has too many weapons and Gonzaga sucks if Turiaf or Ravio isn't hitting. Morrison is good, but he can't carry the team on his own yet.

[BrandNew20]

Gonzaga has all the pieces this year Scott. I see them as an elite eight team, provided they don't get a third seed and have to play an incredibly athletic 6th seed along the lines of a Villanova in the second round.

[BrandNew20]

Oops...

I'm not an Illini fan, but it certainly would have been a great story. It is incredibly hard, however, to have an undefeated season, one night of hot shooting can kill you.

[weezer182]

i disagree. gonzaga has only lost 4 times this year so obvisouly they cant be that streaky. as far as gonzaga being in a terrible conference the wcc was ranked the 7th best conference in the country and the pac 10 wasnt that great this year, compared to past years. gonzaga is just as deep and the weapons they have are more dangerous then washington. your right though washington could beat them in the tournament but it could be the other way around too. i doubt they will even face each other. i hope both do well in the tournament but rooting for gonzaga

Washington shared the Pac-10 title with Arizona right?

[Scott Weber]

I don't know, I know its only 4 losses but there was that one game where turiaf just collapsed and went like 2-19 from the field or something. UW has 5 losses, they shoulda beaten stanford but whatcha gonna do. If the Zags are hot, they can beat anyone, but when they're not they can be beaten by anyone as well....UW is similar too. I know I'm biased, but I just don't think teams can run with UW this year. UW will get a 3 seed probably and so will gonzaga, unless either wins their respective conference tournies.

[Scott Weber]

Washington shared the Pac-10 title with Arizona right?
nah arizona took it because UW lost to Stanford the last game of the conference season. Stanford played amazing and UW just wasn't on, we made a ton of mistakes, it was pretty pathetic. We did split the series with Arizona though.

[weezer182]

Washington shared the Pac-10 title with Arizona right?
no arizona won the pac 10

[BrandNew20]

oh, alright then. I really don't know that much about Washington basketball in general. There is definatly an east coast bias, especially in the ACC(as much as I love my heels)

[weezer182]

yea i agree... gonzaga just won their conference tourny last night so they are probably looking at a 3 seed. washington will probably get a 3 seed as well, assuming they do good in the pac 10 tournament

[BrandNew20]

no arizona won the pac 10

Isn't the Pac-10 the one major conference that doesn't have a playoff? Or did that change?

[weezer182]

Isn't the Pac-10 the one major conference that doesn't have a playoff? Or did that change?
no they added a conference tournament a couple of years ago. it should be starting soon . they use to not have one. arizona just won league

[Scott Weber]

pac-10 has had a tournament forever, wrong conference

[BrandNew20]

pac-10 has had a tournament forever, wrong conference

alright, my bad. Which conference is it?

[Scott Weber]

i have no idea, haha

[BrandNew20]

i have no idea, haha

haha, thats cool. I am pretty sure that there is one though, I'm gonna have to do some research.

[weezer182]

pac-10 has had a tournament forever, wrong conference
oh my bad i thought they just added one... i follow the west coast conference more then the pac 10. just glad to see any team in the west do good in the tourny cause of the east coast bias in college basketball

[somethingyellow]

haha, that's not true at all, but Ok. Gonzaga is really streaky and they're overrated cuz they play in a terrible conference.

Morrison is good, but he can't carry the team on his own yet.
horrible conference?? haha wow the wcc is just as good as the pac10 in my opinon this year. other than UW and UA the pac 10 sucks. the wcc top to bottom is better then the pac-10. it would be a good rematch. i really enjoy watching UW this year, there a good team and fun to watch, but i gotta root for my WCC

[ThriftWhore]

Don't count out wake forest, but its gonna be unc i have a feeling.

[NetNerdsRevenge]

It's weird how the East dominates in college, but the West dominates in the NBA.

[Chemical Love]

UNC is going to take it all. i want to see syracuse to really well, like final four but i dont think that will happen.

[Drew Beringer]

It's a tough choice between UNC and Illini, I think they match up well.

[NetNerdsRevenge]

After watching the Ohio st. game, I dont know if they can guard May.

[indieriot]

even though i'm a big unc fan
i'm shocked that maryland lost to clemson today
i'm also pissed that i dont get to see maryland play unc tommarow
just cause then it might not be a fifety point blow out
(that better not come back to haunt me, and have clemson win tommarow)

[weezer182]

i'm shocked that maryland lost to clemson today
)

im not at all they were 0-2 against clemson coming into the game so it wasnt a big shock to me.

[indieriot]

im not at all they were 0-2 against clemson coming into the game so it wasnt a big shock to me.
:eek2: i didnt know that
but still i expected them to win
even with two losses

[Emopunkthrice]

I'm so happy Boston College lost but I'm so pissed University of Hawaii lost...

[ShoeSh1ne]

I don't see Illinois making it to the Final Four, I've said all year they were overrated. I also can't choose UNC because I'm a Duke fan. Once I see the final brackets, I'll choose my four.

[NetNerdsRevenge]

I'm so happy Boston College lost

asshole

[weezer182]

asshole
arent you from the bay area or no?

[Emopunkthrice]

I'm happy BC lost because I said before BC wouldnt make the final four and some dude cussed me out about it so now every game I hope that they lose

[weezer182]

I'm happy BC lost because I said before BC wouldnt make the final four and some dude cussed me out about it so now every game I hope that they lose
haha yea... never bet on bc basketball they always seem to choke one way or the other

[BrandNew20]

Isn't the Pac-10 the one major conference that doesn't have a playoff? Or did that change?

So I did some research and its the Ivy league that doesn't have a playoff. Anyone care, anyone? ok I'll shut up...

[Emopunkthrice]

Ivy League haha, nerdy schools

[Drew Beringer]

even though i'm a big unc fan
i'm shocked that maryland lost to clemson today
i'm also pissed that i dont get to see maryland play unc tommarow

Clemson is beating UNC by five with around 4 minutes to go....

[Drew Beringer]

Clemson is up one now with 2 minutes to go...

[Drew Beringer]

Felton hits a three, UNC up by 2 with less than a minute, Felton is the only reason UNC is winning.

[BrandNew20]

UNC up 3 with 36.5. I'll be surprised if they don't win this...

[bigal00004]

anyone see Minnesota kill Indiana? MN played pretty well, but now they have to play IL in the big-10 semifinals.

[NetNerdsRevenge]

arent you from the bay area or no?
Ya, but I was raised a Boston fan. All my family is there...I cant wait to move back there and go to school.

[Scott Weber]

University of Washington - pac-10 tournament champions...beating ashes ashes pick for the national title for the 2nd time this year. :) I wouldn't be so sure about that whole "Gonzaga is the best team in Washington" claim.

[AshesAshes]

i still stand by my claim Gonzaga is the best team in washington
gonzaga had the best pg of all time play there :)

[Scott Weber]

gonzaga had the best pg of all time play there :)
Magic Johnson played at Michigan State :)

Stockton was an amazing player, but I would call Magic the greatest simply because he won championsips, and that's what makes a star into a legend. Stockton doesn't have a ring.

yea point taken..i live in utah so i gotta go with stockton...we can put it this way though...best white pg ever stockton:best black pg ever:Magic Johson. :)

[Drew Beringer]

Whew, I'm glad Tucker hit that buzzer beater to help my Badgers win! But I dunno about their chances tomorrow against the Illini...

[indieriot]

Felton hits a three, UNC up by 2 with less than a minute, Felton is the only reason UNC is winning.
i was at the game
and i'm watching and i kept saying to myself this isnt happening, this isnt happenign
and then they won, so i was happy, yet exhausted
carolina played like shit and deserved to lose
then yesterday versus georgia tech they just sucked and tech outplayed them
i think that felton should have taken the three to end the game cause it isnt like he leads the acc in three point percentage or something, oh wait he does
the duke tech gaem today dissapointed me a lot, it was a good game, but luke aka sideshow bob, looked horrible and weak compared to sheldon williams who i think is a tad overrated
and redick was unconsious saturday and sunday and i hate redick with a passion
on a side note: wake fans suck, and they're ignorant and loud and boarish if thats a word
also does anyone know who was mvp?
i figure redick but i left before the trophy presentation

[Scott Weber]

i still stand by my claim Gonzaga is the best team in washington
yeah, too bad washington is a 1 seed and Gonzaga is a 3.......

[AshesAshes]

yeah, too bad washington is a 1 seed and Gonzaga is a 3.......
hahaha....washington is better than gonzaga...i would pick pick washington to win it all if they had more size..but they do deserve that one seed..

[weezer182]

hahaha....washington is better than gonzaga...i would pick pick washington to win it all if they had more size..but they do deserve that one seed..
yea but gonzaga beat washington this year. everyone knows the seeds dont matter we will see when they match up again :animateds

[AshesAshes]

yea but gonzaga beat washington this year. everyone knows the seeds dont matter we will see when they match up again :animateds
yea i guess we will :animateds

[Scott Weber]

When Brandon Roy was hurt...

[weezer182]

When Brandon Roy was hurt...
true but there is no way to tell that washington would of won with him? they still could of lost

[Scott Weber]

true but there is no way to tell that washington would of won with him? they still could of lost
and we still could have won ;)

[BrandNew20]

Washington is the weakest of the number one seeds, but they should be an elite eight team, in my mind.

[Emopunkthrice]

haha under yahoo under sports under NCAA Mens Basketball theres a poll on whether Washington deserves number 1 and more people are voting no they dont deserve it

[Drew Beringer]

I'm still shocked that Louisville got a 4 seed. Shit, they were ranked 6 in the nation, they should have been either a 2 or a 3. Oh well.

[Drew Beringer]

And I'm rooting for Syracuse because Hakim Warrick is awesome and I'm rooting for Washington cause I love that little fucker Robinson. Anyone with a 44 inch vertical is awesome in my book.

[somethingyellow]

yeah, too bad washington is a 1 seed and Gonzaga is a 3.......
yea so that doesnt mean they are better, if that was the case then all number 1 seeds would always make the final four and its never happened

[Emopunkthrice]

And I'm rooting for Syracuse because Hakim Warrick is awesome and I'm rooting for Washington cause I love that little fucker Robinson. Anyone with a 44 inch vertical is awesome in my book.
I love Hakeem Warrick and Gerry Mcnamara

[Drew Beringer]

I love Hakeem Warrick and Gerry Mcnamara

McNamara gives all us white people hope in the game of basketball :animateds

[Emopunkthrice]

Warrick is like Amare Stoudemire, dunk on every chance available to them

[djnicca]

i got to west virginia university, so i'm happier than a pig in shit right now because we got a seven seed. and before anyone says anything; i don't give a shit that wake forest will beat the shit out of us in the second round (unless chris paul punches someone again), we're still dancing!

[AshesAshes]

McNamara gives all us white people hope in the game of basketball :animateds

haha I love your spirit even though I wish death to WV for beating BC in the second round. What the shit is that anyway? BC should of dominated you guys but instead bent over in the first half.

[Scott Weber]

haha under yahoo under sports under NCAA Mens Basketball theres a poll on whether Washington deserves number 1 and more people are voting no they dont deserve it
you should do some research on ESPN.com or any other sports website, or watch the selection show - every single analyst said we deserved it for finishing so strong.

[AshesAshes]

anything dicky v says im going with BABY!!!!!

BC spanked the shit out of us in the regular season. and that's the things about us- if we get hot and start making our threes (which is our entire game), then we can beat anyone. it's just a shame that we usually can't get it done.

and on another note, yes it's a surprise that washington got a one seed, but it's not that they don't deserve it. kentucky didn't, wake didn't, louisville should have gotten a higher seed but not a one, uconn should DEFINITELY not have gotten a two, 'cuse should have gotten a higher seed too.

sweet god, i can't wait until thursday.

bc never does well in the tournament
