    Well, if you beat Villanova, odds are you end up winning the whole thing. Congrats to Kansas.
    It was a really good tournament. In no specific order, these are my top 10 games of the tournament: 
    Kansas-UNC, UNC-Duke, Saint Peters-Kentucky, Saint Peters-Purdue, TCU-Arizona, Duke-Michigan State, Richmond-Iowa, Notre Dame-Rutgers, Michigan State-Davidson, Murray State-San Francisco.
    That UNC Duke game was great.

    Wake up 5 in the morning and saw the last five minutes of first half, when NC took the 15 point lead..i was like, "no way Kansas can make it back.."
    Idiot. 
    Athens 2006. Dusseldorf 2007. Berlin 2009. Venice 2010. Amsterdam 1 2012. Amsterdam 1+2 2014. Buenos Aires 2015.
    Prague Krakow Berlin 2018. Berlin 2022
    EV, Taormina 1+2 2017.

    I wish i was the souvenir you kept your house key on..

    Idiot. 

    I watched with a bunch of other KU alums in Milwaukee.  I tried to keep myself positive by saying "we outscored Miami by 32 in the second half, so it's possible." Incredible coaching job by Bill Self.  Damn I am lucky he is at KU.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    I'm still pretty shocked by Jay Wright retiring.

    Isn’t that why you give him an extension even though he was caught on an fbi wiretap?  You don’t do that for a losing coach

    Boeheim out at Syracuse.  Final nail in the original Big East coffin. Crazy he was there 47 years. Gonna be weird to see someone else n that sideline in the dome.

    I never could stand him. Last time I saw him in person was in Brooklyn when they beat Richmond, though I was applauding loudly everytime a call went against him.

    who y'all got winning the whole thing? or you waiting for the brackets to come out? I think there a couple good teams that can win. No real dominant team this year.

    We got our brackets to fill out today at work. I will once again show my inability to pick the winner. I have gotten in the top 5 before, and finished dead last one time, so I don't have a clue.

    I picked Houston in a few brackets, also went with Marquette in another and Arizona in another one.

    I did a few. My real one I had UCLA beating Marquette. I did one for fun (I let ESPN do a random one, which i made a few minor changes) but in that one they had Houston winning it against Arizona. My Cinderella team this year is Providence which i had making it to the sweet 16

    Wow, Princeton beat U of A!

    These Ivy League teams are great at frustrating opponents with their tight defense.
