    Wow, that was a big smack down of UNC. Congrats Scott.

    Michigan State goes down as well, to the last team in ...Syracuse. That was pretty shocking as well.

    Nevada continues to wreck my bracket...they beat Cincy today. I have one team left in the South Bracket...Kentucky and I didn't have them advancing.

    All of my brackets are in danger now, with the exception of Duke! Congrats to Scott as well. I was very surprised when I saw that score on the board.

    I still stand by that.
    But... We can wait til the tournament is over before doing anything...
    :p

    How you can be so unprepared one week then lights out the next is beyond me.
    The Aggies have truly been Jeckyll and Hyde all year.

    Hoping for a few more weeks of the good.

    Talk about a bad day in Cincinnati....both Xavier a #1 seed and UC a #2 seed lose. Worst day since the Pindale Mall was bombed with live Turkeys.. :)

    What conference has the most consecutive years with multiple teams in the Sweet Sixteen?

    Obviously B1G or I wouldn't be posting this. But it's not even close...it's 11 straight years.

    Next best run is six. Big 12.

    I'm not a big stats junkie...I just read this somewhere.

    Is it true that the Pac12 is soliciting Buffalo and Nevada for basketball-only membership to try to make the conference competitive?

    (Chain yank alert :lol: )

    USNews Ranking of National Universities.

    Rice #14
    Texas #56
    Texas A&M #69

    distant #3, that's nothing to be ashamed of, they do have a better Vet school though then either Rice or Texas!

    Yes... the school in Austin is definitely more in touch with today's issues, so obviously a better place to send your kids...

    Michigan has been red hot with treys in the first 20 minutes. The second half should be interesting one way or the other? :idea:

    Wow I was in a meeting tonight and came out got in my car and turned on the Aggie game, I thought the Ag's had a good shot at the win. Oh boy glad I didn't have any money on the game.

    Congrats to Bobda, UM looks like a team that got hot at the right time..always a good thing in playoff basketball.

    Well done by your boys Bob... the Aggies barely showed up today to give you some practice time.

    Good luck going forward!
