    That charge was BS, though...

    The Florida Gulf Coast run is crazy though...

    End of the line for Craft & Co. this Thursday. But that is one quick little fella.

    I'm as big a ref complainer as they come & I was rooting for Iowa St. to boot, but that is such a tough call, a real bang bang thing. I would love to see the replay on the out of bounds play that gave the ball back to Ohio St., though. Some tough calls that went against ISU for sure.
    FGCU is quite a story...would love to see it continue, but it only gets harder from here.

    I'll be rooting for your 'Cats, but this will be a tough game.

    My final 4 is still intact. But that is about it.

    I got 3 of 4 left...

    Harvard ruined my fourth pick in the first round...

    But, then again, what the hell was I thinking picking New Mexico anyway?

    You're right about it being a tough call...

    I'm, of course, speaking after seeing multiple replays, so, I probably have seen POV's that the refs didn't get to look at during the process...

    As far as FGCU, yeah, I'm really enjoying seeing them play...

    IMO, there's no other team in the tourney playing like they want that title as much as FGCU...

    I have Duke, New Mexico (RIP), Indiana, and Kansas, with Duke beating Kansas for the championship...

    Sure, I might be a bit biased (lol), but, I honestly think we have a shot...

    But, your pick of Miami over Kansas might be a good one...

    They're tough this season...

    As far as Ohio State, yeah, there's probably no one left in that bracket to stop them now, save for Arizona...

    If they get past them, it's pretty much a wrap...

    As far as OSU or U of A, I don't think it's a given that either one gets be Wichita St. or Lasalle, although either will be the fav.
    You won't see this from me very often (possibly never again), but I'm rooting for Duke to make it to the Final 4. Go Blue Devils!

    ... so that's two Louisville won't have to worry about.

    My nat'l title game is still intact, but, one more of my Final Four squads got bumped off...

    Thanks Indiana...

    On a bright note, though, Syracuse/Marquette should be a really good game...

    Will be rooting for Marquette, although I'll be OK with the Orange winning, Wichita St., Duke and I'm not sure yet on Michigan/Florida...leaning towards the Wolverines, though.

    Yea, that was horrid. I was more than OK when CBS decided to stop showing it. I hope the kid is able to come back from it.

    As far as the games go: Louisville is as good as advertised, I don't see them being beat; Michigan is on quite a roll since being down to Kansas late; Syracuse's defense is/was awesome, the Michigan/Syracuse game should be really, really good - I give the winner a punchers shot against the Cardinals; It doesn't bode well for Wichita St. that they had to barely hang on against Ohio St.'s press...just wait till Louisville unleashes their press on 'em.

    Yeah, Louisville is pretty much a lock on the left side...

    But, they're gonna have a game on their hands with either Michigan or Syracuse...

    I thought Syracuse had some tough calls go against them late in the game, but even so, their last possession was horrible. Wichita St. put up an excellent fight vs. Louisville, but just couldn't pull it off. I still like Louisville to win, but Michigan is more than capable of springing the upset, IMO.
