    SEC is 4 - 1 and should be 5 - 0 with the only loss being Vanderbilt and the bone head play at the end.

    I really liked the Gators to make the Final Four until their big guy Beast Egbunu went down with an injury. They still look real good against UVA right now.

    The ACC took it on the chin today going 0 - 2. FSU got blown the fukk out which really surprised me.

    The ACC isn't all that good this year. SEC got overlooked. If it didn't seem like 6 teams are easy wins, then more teams may have got in. The ACC looks like it was 10 deep, which it was but anyone could beat anyone. No great teams besides UNC, and Roy can blow that in a minute. Louisville is overrated as well. Oregon would roll them if they didn't lose Boucher.

    ACC is way overhyped. BEAST is a mid-major at best.

    SEC and PAC got the shaft this year. Although, CAL would have been a horrible addition to the field, my complaint is the seeding of PAC teams and the fact more SEC should have made it in.

    In reality, you guys care too much about conference shit. The ACC had two in the FF last year. Just looking for a reason to say something. It's about matchups, not conferences. It's getting overplayed. The Tourney is a crapshoot. Play 7 game series then we can see who the best team is when it's over in August.

    ugh..its always like that.

    1 or 2 mid majors may surprise but its not like the tournament is ever owned by these small conferences that get 1 team in.

    Just donate the ML money to me. A mans gotta eat. No chance. Roy can't even ruin this one. Seton Hall could have rebounded with UNC, but the refs made sure that wasn't happening. UNC doesn't lose in the Carolinas. They had to move the rig job down a state. Just a heads up. I'd love for UNC to lose, but watch out for the refs.

    People just want to hate Cuse. Last years tournament was basically another ACC tournament plus Nova. Now a couple ACC schools lose in round 2 and all of a sudden ACC isn't good as far as I can see all the real title contenders from the conference are still in.

    I haven't watched ESPN in ages. Except when I bet on a game. Never listen to those fools. They do love the ACC because of $$$.

    I'm not a conference man anymore. They hate us in the ACC. We're just some damn yankees outsiders to the ACC. I miss the Big East.

    Arkansas is the type of team that can upset anyone. They can put up points in bunches and are road tested. The few games they lost this year, the refs did them no favors. If they can stay out of foul trouble they will stay with UNC and who knows when pressure hits in crunch time.

    I love +10.5 but +525 looks delicious. I really like Arkie first half +6 as well.

    Which is why they play the games. I've seen both teams all year and I've had Arkie on my radar for this game. I really see Arkie going toe to toe in this one.

    They could, but guarantee you will be bitching at the refs. It will be 8 on 5.

    Oh yeah, I expect a huge home crowd and the refs will be on them as much as Duke and UK. BUT, Arkie just had a game controlled in favor of UK, so I think they will go at this game differently. Mike Anderson is going to come up big in this one, I have a feeling. I think he coaches his best game ever.

    Mac, they are going to get routed and most likely give up 90+, there are a few teams that can play at the pace UNC wants to and have a chance to win, Arkansas isn't one of them. Hogs tried to run with Kentucky and got routed both times and then tried to run with OSU and was routed. Now what do you think is going to happen when they try to play the exact game UNC wants to play?

    This will be Anderson's one shining moment tomorrow. This will be a last possession game.

    Rocket's should be smarting to exact revenge on the Pelicans on Friday. Rocket tickets are so fukkin expensive it's ridiculous. A reasonably good seat was $700 each, one close to mid court was $3,500 and they wanted $72,000 for one of the worst suites for the Cav's game last week. My son begged me to go but my media room was the best seat in the house.

    Arkie can run in spots Unde. I think they'll slow it down some as well. This won't be a blowout.

    If my uncle didn't want to go I was gonna ask you. It is houston federal credit unions suite. We get free alcohol. We get on court to shoot before and after game and supposed to have a rockets legend watch the game with us. I'm rooting for drexler. Met him and reid gettys when he coach u of h. at cincy airport. My uncle is in charge of immigration at bush airport and hoping he has some cubans for me.

    Okay Mac, good luck. I will be the first person to congratulate you if its a winner but I don't think Hogs have what it takes to play with the Heels.

    SMU choked away a win against USC, Rhode Island took care of Creighton pretty easily, and MTSU dominated Minny. Butler beat MTSU today finally and Saint Mary's lost to Arizona. Exactly how in the penetrate did power conferences dominate? They won like 1 game they weren't supposed to. Committee set up Saint Mary's/VCU that way one would lose, same for Dayton/Wichita State. Funny how that happens instead of matching them up with power conference teams. Committee protecting the sacred "big boys" like usual

    You nailed it on the head. What a frustrating game to watch the bullshit by the refs. UNC had 3 fouls with little over a minute to go in the game. Unfukkkingreal.
