You heard it here first, Michigan will be beating VCU today.
That defense doesn't work on teams that want to run up and down the court.
Looks like VCU already pulled off?
1 dimensional gimmicky defense

Umm. I already had Michigan beating VCU in my bracket, so I already knew it was going to happen on Monday.
The Palace was rocking today. Michigan stomped all over VCU - highly surprising. Michigan is not a physical team, but they sure looked like one against what turned into be a Kleenex soft defense by VCU. It didn't help they got a few quick fouls and probably couldn't be as aggressive, but it was never in question.
Meanwhile, MSU played Jekyll and Hyde in the first half, forcing their will on Memphis and then standing around offensively to let them cut the lead to 3. MSU found its game again in the 2nd half - even with Harris' foul trouble, Appling's injury (and all around mediocrity while in the game), and Trice's terrible play. Glad they won big, but it didn't feel like a big win to me.

Ya. Probably.
I should have known. But how does Oregon get a 12 seed while Gonzaga gets a number one seed.
Don't get me wrong. I like both teams. They are both my "home team" having lived in Spokane for so long and now living in Oregon.

Marquette and Butler in a good one. So many games haven't been close. I'm glad for a back and forth affair, finally.
This is the best game so far.
Two really good teams hitting on all cylinders in a fast paced game.
Great game.
Gonzaga game is good. Hope they lose since it'll screw a couple of those in front of me up.
Also, if that's Marquette and Butler hitting on al cylinders, they're going to get stomped by Miami.
Now it feels like March! The Zags on the ropes right now, too.
Butler had two chances and couldn't get a good shot off. Can't even credit the D. They just took bad shots. Very surprised because Stevens had plenty of opportunity to draw up plays. That loss really hurt my bracket.
Gonzaga sux.
My bracket is history. And iQuit
But that Butler Marquette game was still pretty good.

hahahaha my bracket called the Gonzaga loss!
Sorry Peace.
If it makes you feel better, my Rams got killed by Louisville and my Jayhawks may very well lose tomorrow lol

Yeah, Oregon got totally screwed by the selection committee. They should have been a 3rd or 4th seed. My son is HUGE Ducks fan. It was great watching them totally dominate Saint Louis.
Wow Aaron Craft with the 3 to beat Iowa State. What an incredible finish.
Ironic, the best 3 point shooting team got beat by the 3.

Well I don't feel so bad now. Unless I'm looking at the wrong bracket members I can see most of us picked Gonzaga.
Ohio State was my pick over Iowa State.
