    Ducks won in dominant fashion last night, may get a 1 seed depending on how things shake up today. Those ACC and B1G title games will be real big.

    Beavers get a #7 seed.

    7>1 so Beaver fans are claiming they're better.

    I'll root for both Oregon schools, but I have a feeling VCU might blast their 10th seed all over Oregon State's Beavers. Hopefully not.

    Gary Payton Jr is not your best scorer?

    Nope. He's an amazing defender and rebounder but his shot is terrible. He scores a lot of dunks.

    Tinkle can get to the ft line a bunch and can score in a bunch of ways

    Been watching NCAA basketball a bit lately. I just can't get into it. What I see is guys making near NBA quality moves and then missing shots all over the place. Yesterday, I saw a guy miss a layup 3 times on the same possession.

    It is the imperfections that make it great. Because of them, anything can happen. (except a #16 beating a #1).

    Imagine a scenario where Laker can put a 3 game streak together to get into the playoffs, then beat Spurs in the first round. Even if the system was in the place for that to happen, it never would happen. But it does in the NCAAs.

    There really is more of a magical feel to NCAA. It also feels like the kids are giving 110% while in the pros it is more relaxed.

    Like looking at art where the artist can't draw very well.

    I still think if college used a pro shot clock and 3 pt line i could stomach it but to me it is just too mucb dribbling and not enough spacing so the lanes are congested which leads to more dribbling. I do like that the kids work their asses off it's just too slow
