Coogs needed to hit their free throws at the end. That was the difference.

Will be interesting to see how they match up against A&M's size in the paint.

Yea, i dont feel so bad about UVA losing now. Lol If anything, the tournament this year has proven that there is no one dominant team. Thanks for the company guys, i really needed that.

10 years from now the only thing anyone will remember from this tournament is the 16 over 1 tough. That's going to stick to UVA forever.

Shut Yo trap!

It'll be okay, North.

If it makes you feel any better, North, I realized my old Arizona hoodie has pretty much gone down the crapper and ordered a new one the night before the first round. The new one came today. Whoops.

I had them in the Final Four. Whoops.

I read that all 17.5 million brackets on ESPN are busted. Anyone know if that's true? Seems a bit hard to believe.

A 16 beat a 1.

That played into my logic as well. This would be their FU run through the tournament. So much for that.

That one game destroyed EVERY bracket

I'm pulling for Nevada and West Virginia now. Would be nice to see one of my former homes win it.

I'll root for anyone that isn't NCAA royalty like UNC, Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, UCLA. Wouldn't be shocked if somewhere it was predetermined that this is Jim Boeheim's year.

The sport only matters because of the royalty. You should love Duke - They used to never matter at all - and one coach changed that. In a couple of years you'll probably hate Villanova, too.

I like the Wildcats of Nova. While it is easy to hate or dislike teams like UNC or Duke because of the conference rivalry i wouldnt have it any other way. They are hated because of that success and whenever they lose it makes it more enjoyable but it would suck not having them in the Tourney.
