March Madness!!

[shertz1981]

I didn''t see a thread in Hangout ... I''m so excited!

Who have you all got in your Final Four??

GO KENTUCKY!

 

[Iowa Lizzy]

I didn''t do a bracket this year. I''m just excited that my alma mater, Northern Iowa, won tonight! They play Kansas next so they''re definitely the underdogs! Go Panthers!

 

[LAJennifer]

Kansas, K-State, West Virginia, Duke

I am *kicking* myself for picking Cuse over K State.

And I am praying for a KY-WV Elite Eight -- that would be the best game of the tourney, IMO

I agree that will be the best game (if they both make it that far). I saw that match up November 2008 in Las Vegas - Kentucky won.

Concerning Cuse or K State - it is a toss up I think.

Thrilled wake forest won.

 

[shertz1981]

And how about Ohio taking down Georgetown?!?

 

[elrohwen]

Go Syracuse!! This is the first year in the long time that Cuse has been good enough to go all the way. DH and I are excited!

Last night''s games were a little nutty though. What''s with the upsets?!

I also really want Cornell to win their first game today. They''ve never made it past the first game, so it would be awesome for them.

We have Kansas for Midwest, Syracuse for West, Kentucky for East and Villa for South. We thought we were done for yesterday in the Villa game, but they pulled through. Our final two are Kansas and Kentucky. Kentucky to win and a tie breaker of 132 pts.

I think that''s my exact bracket, give or take a point or two on the tiebreaker, LOL.

Ok - so did anyone NOT have Kansas playing in the Championship game?

Makes it very possible for the following group of fellows to be this year''s National Champs.

This is DH and I after that game

We pick KU every year because we're huge Jayhawk fans, so it feels wrong not to pick them.... but we almost didn't this year. They've been playing it close a lot and always seem to have trouble with the Missouri Valley teams. We just KNEW this was going to happen. The number of people who came by my desk at work on Friday with threat of, "KU had better win the championship because otherwise my bracket is done!" All day! So I'm going to go out on a limb and say they were a Final Four staple with most people.

Another one for good measure.....

I did not pick Kansas, but my bracket is still totally busted. I am a huge UK fan, though, so I am totally happy for them. This tournament has been completely awesome to watch! I am jonesing a little today without it.

So, guess who''s going to see Cornell play in their third game against Kentucky?

This girl!!

I am so excited - I can''t wait. I do wish they were playing anyone other than Kentucky as I don''t really think they have a shot at winning, but I''ll be there to support them! The game is in Syracuse, DH''s team, so I think just going to the Carrier Dome is a big deal for him and supporting Cornell is even better (though he did say that in the event of a Cornell v Syracuse game, he would root for Syracuse unless it was the final game, then he would root for Cornell. What a weirdo)

So proud to be a UNI Panther (alum)!!!!!! I fully endorse them screwing up so many brackets! They''re on the cover of the next Sports Illustrated so we''re probably screwed now with the SI Curse!

UK all the way! My husband is from KY and is a big fan, and now he''s sucked me in even though I''m not usually that into basketball! Who could resist them, though?

Kentucky caught a break today (and Washington, for that matter). West Virginia''s starting Point Guard broke his foot today.

How about them ''eers??!!!
