So how did your favorite teams do?
I rooted for all of the Missouri Valley teams on general principle because of Billy Packer and Jim Nantz's idiotic comments that the MVC and CAA didn't deserve the number bids in the tournament that they received. Packer was borderline apoplectic because the MVC got the same amount of teams in the tourney as his beloved ACC. |

I'm an ACC man myself, but we really only had four worthy teams. Florida State was borderline, but they would have been bounced pretty quickly anyway. Packer is a jackass.
My Final Four picks are still alive (Duke, Memphis, UConn and Boston College). I did real well the first day (15 out of 16) not so much after that. |

My beloved Illinois is out of the tourney but the big Cinderella story this year is the Bradley Braves out of a city near here (Peoria) going to the sweet 16 this is the farthest they have gone since 1955! |

And beat Kansas and Pitt to get there. Since my bracket is already crap at this point, I hope they make it to the Final Four. |

I know that no one pays attention to the NIT, but Cincy is playing SC tonight. The starting point guard for Cincy went to my high school alma mater, and I got to cover most of his games while he was here. He made the All Big East freshman team...I hope they roger the Lamecocks all propa like. |

I am so glad LSU beat Duke but now my 2 teams have to play each other. Texas is my all time fav but LSU was my dark horse pick . I really didnt think they would get so far. |
