My Longhorns enter the tournament in the best shape in years as a 2 seed and an AP ranking of 5. But I’m worried about the first round. Colgate probably should have been seeded better and their lineup is a matchup problem for Texas. Upset potential is high.


It is too bad they fired their coach. He was probably the best up and coming coach in Division I basketball.

Congrats Ed!!

That was a good Maryland game. The way WVU came out in the first half I was concerned for the Terps.

How about Furman pulling an upset of UVA. That is what the NCAA tournament is all about.

Great start to March madness
Early in the game on the Terps message board, fans said the game was already over and terps lost. Lol
Tough win.
Bring on Alabama
Loved Furman winning. I was pretty shocked they got that shot to win.

I hate that UVA upset. I gave my wife a hard time for picking Furman. Now she gets to gloat.
The mind hungers for that on which it feeds.

It’s too bad his actions left them no choice. I have lost all respect for Chris Beard.

The charges were dropped so clearly he was innocent. LOL

Any time a 15 beats a 2 it is exciting.

FDU over Perdue
What a game
16 seed that's actually the shortest team in division 1 beats a 1 seed.
Amazing game.
I loved their scrappy press
I knew Perdue was suspect, even my Terps beat them.

Crazy, the last three years I think Purdue has lost to a #13, #14, and a #16.
