This is why college basketball has the best postseason in all of sports. It's unpredictable, exciting, chaotic and whomever survives can truly call themselves champions.

Absolutely.

It's funny, I just opened this thread and read the first page. In retrospect, what was said on this page is the equivalent of people arguing over what a random-number generator would produce.

I've got Kentucky going all the way.

BUT, I had Kansas, 'Cuse, Kentucky, and 'Nova in the Final 4. At least my champion is still in it, unlike 95% of the rest of my pool.

President, Congress set to act on NCAA upset Associated Press WASHINGTON -- In shock over the upset of NCAA Basketball Tournament favorite University of Kansas, Congressional leaders with the backing of President Barack Obama planned to act legislatively in the matter. Behind closed doors, it was decided to “deem” the Kansas Jayhawks as NCAA Tournament Champions. “Let me be clear, I picked the Jayhawks in my bracket, everybody did. We know they were the best team. As President I will give laser like focus to seeing that this gets done,” Obama told reporters. The issue cut across party lines, with outgoing Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, an outspoken conservative, promising to sponsor the legislation known as the Bracket Bailout Bill. Brownback said, “I’m glad to see the President taking action on this important matter. My constituents are one hundred percent behind this. Look, I’m out of here. I have nothing to lose.” But a frequent Brownback ally, outgoing Kentucky Senator Jim Bunning, expressed outrage. “This is not how this needs to be done. We can’t continue to give championship handouts to undeserving teams. If they can’t win on the court then they need to quit whining. I will stand against this even if I have to stand alone!” Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sibelius, formerly governor of Kansas, brought a new wrinkle to the debate. “This is really a health care issue. Do you know how upsetting the loss by Kansas is for millions of Americans? The government absolutely needs to intervene to protect the mental well-being of its citizens.” In a surprise move, North Carolina Senators Kay Hagan (D) and Richard Burr (R) issued a joint statement in favor of the legislation. “We feel that deeming the University of Kansas as NCAA Champions is the right move for our country and the integrity of the “deeming” process. North Carolina has supported and recognized “deeming” national championships for years, particularly national championships deemed by the Helms Athletic Foundation. In fact, if this Bracket Bailout passes we will submit legislation deeming a number of championships for the University of North Carolina.” Promises of courtside seats are being offered in the corridors of Congress for votes in support of the Bailout. Although one Senator stated on condition of anonymity, “Not many people are taking the tickets. Some people fear that we may stop playing games all together, and simply deem all the winners in advance.”

So, what's happened to the Zags? I thought this game with Syracuse would be close and interesting. I even thought the Zags might beat them, but there's not a chance of that as things stand now.

The fact that Gonzaga sucks really hurt their chances.

Zaga can't hit consistently from outside the arc.
They also shat the bed for almost 20 mins of the game.
That and Syracuse is really f@cking good.

Fwiw, Elias Harris is going to be awesome.
How is he just a freshman?

This sucks.
My 'Cuse_hate is topped only by my Duke_hate.

I don't know, I just think when there are this many upsets it makes for ****** basketball down the stretch.
it might be boring later on, but so far the upsets make for excellent basketball watching i hate people who hate things just because they're the overdog or popular or expected to win. cuse is a good team and with the amount work they put in i wouldn't be surprised to see them win the whole thing. CORNELLLL. is kinda owning. I keep expecting wisconsin to fight back, but so far we're owning "if wisconsin keeps playing like this, there's no way they can win."

Wisconsin has the ability to bounce back, I've seen them do it in conference play, but Cornell may be too much for them. My prediction has been that Cornell will win, and I think that's going to happen.
