I had them to the elite 8

I had them losing to Arkansas in the Sweet 16. Just didn't trust them after they nearly gagged away their game with Purdue last week. I think all the Big Ten teams got seeded too high because of the non-stop hype about it being the best conference.

B1G office might want to take notes.  They keep letting teams kill each other during the season they will not have another championship team.   Maybe next year it changes but Aloha and I won’t be holding our breath 

The brand of basketball, if you can call it that, is different in the Big 1.0. If they’re allowing you to play that way Big 1.0 teams can beat anyone. If the threshold falls below murder it can be tough for Big 1.0 teams. There are a few teams that can play a different style but teams like msu, pu, and Wiscy thrive off it.

How wrong am I that I wouldn't hate a Gonzaga national championship and an undefeated record? I've always liked Few and love the way they play - my second team if I have one behind the Hoosiers.

Do '76 members toast one another like members of the Dolphins when the last undefeated team loses? Something I haven't seen before, but I've seen plenty of posters here hoping Gonzaga doesn't win so IU remains the last undefeated team. I'm sure I can think what I want, just curious if members of that '76 team feel strongly about that like Mercury Morris does.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere a few years ago that those guys didn't care at all. May have been Buckner that said it. That team was, and still is, a class act all around.

I think Stuhoo St's coach is the first guy I've seen in a suit. What a professional!

The ULTIMATE battle of good versus evil is happening at Assembly Hall: Houston with Kelvin Sampson vs Cleveland State with Dennis Gates.

*evil is the prohibitive favorite

Am I crazy to think he at least tests the waters this summer? He isn’t a pro right now, but I’ve seen much worse players bolt. From a physical standpoint, he’s just about there.

Maybe, but probably more likely if they aren't a 1 and done in the tourney, no? Torn - I don't want to face him next year or any years after, but I wouldn't hate a PU loss after today's bad news.

Good point. He can always test the waters, but maybe a mini-run gives him a boost. I choose this year’s team being a one-and-done if I have to choose one.

Me and my kid were just saying he may go this year and he’s definitely an NBA player.

ps: Go. Mean. Green.

Ivey would’ve gotten a T after that 3 if this was a Boroski game. 

[TheWatShot]

North Texas is going to blow this. They went into clock-watching mode too early. 

[Hovadipo]

My goodness, Ivey is going crazy.
