It's been a crazy tournament. I wish I'd put a couple thousand on George Mason in Vegas a couple of weeks ago.

I just love to watch college basketball. It will be a good game this Tuesday. My cash is on the Gamecocks. They and UL match up very evenly. SC makes very few mistakes and plays hard, hard defense. Balkman(sp?) is a wild card, he seems to play all over the court, slices for a ton of rebounds and is real athletic.

Funny you say that Ed, I was saying I bet even George Masons coach didn't have them in his brackets..haha. This has been the best NCAA I can ever remember seeing ever.

After the game, their coach said he knew he was going to Indy he just didn't think he was taking his team with him.

The Big East was damn good and had more depth than any conference. The SEC was ripped on this board but was even ripped a little by some from our UK fan base. The media was wrong as well. Its all about peaking at the right time. UK is still down but the SEC had some pretty tough teams and at leat Rick is able to have some perspective.:thumbup

THanks Rick for giving credit due when due...........all year we listened to everybody bad mouth the SEC....and now look at us.............NOknee is the worst......he can't even come here and admit he was wrong..........you are one of the few UL fans I can tolerate on here.......grover:lol::lol::lol:

Well I remember 78, 80, 86, 96 and 98, those were pretty good years.

George Mason; I read over on rivals that in the CBS national bracket challenge one person out of over 300,000 had the entire final four picked. And on ESPN's national pool two people did. They must be George Mason alum.
