    just saw a stat on espn. this game is only the 8th time in tourney history where same teams met in consecutive tourneys.

    7 for 7 the team that won the previous year won. i really liked arizona before this stat. not sure now. might just go arizona 1st half.

    Zero in basketball. Absolute wrong sport to get jacked up and emotional. Need to be calm or you look like Witchy State did the other night chucking layups off the back board and not hitting the rim. I never understood why jerk off coaches like Frank Martin try to act like a football coach on the sidelines, screaming his head off at his players.

    Goldie, why do you keep saying this? 18-20 year old kids don't want revenge? did you go to high school or college?

    Revenge is a dish served cold..meaning you have to be good enough to beat the team you are seeking revenge from.

    If the revenge factor exists at all, it's most surely built into the line and therefore worth nothing.

    it matters a ton if the right players "care about revenge"

    many athletes are too soft

    Probably the most important factor in handicapping.
