    I guess Me'Aaron agrees with De'Aaron.

    Not looking good for the Zags.

    Zags play zero D.
    UConn’s energy and quickness to much.

    Yeah this was a down year for the Zags. I was impressed they made it quite this far.

    Weird to see UConn men doing better than the women.

    This is a fun game. I’m only slightly rooting for Creighton, just because I want the final four to be made up of the lowest seeds possible this year.

    Does anyone know if the bullshit rule that was just enforced in the Texas v Miami game is a rule in the NBA? The rule is that a shot made from behind the backboard, that goes over the backboard does not count and results in a turnover.

    NM I looked it up and any ball that goes over the backboard in either direction is considered out of bounds. I think that’s bullshit and should be changed. Sorry if I’m sounding like Jeff Van Gundy.

    Bruh Miami came back? I saw they were down 12 with 10 minutes left. Wild.

    It was gutsy for sure. A 4 seed, two 5 seeds and a 9 seed make up the Final Four. Fucking madness!

    Is that the highest seeding total?
    4+5+5+9=23
    There is almost always a #1 seed in the mix

    In 2011 the total was 26... the only other time it has been this high or higher though. That year a 3 seed in UConn, a 4 seed in Kentucky, an 8 seed in Butler and Viginia Commonwealth University was an 11 seed.

    Didn't enter that one so I can't see the results.

    Here--gloat over your victory. You and @Shaboid were the only people to pick even a single final 4 team correctly, and nobody has any possible points left.
