Butler and UConn earned their right to be here, no doubt...

but watching this game already its just apparent to me, that Ohio State, Duke or even Kansas could probably beat either of these teams by 8-10 on most nights....

Not saying they should be here, cuz they failed when it mattered and these 2 teams didnt, but it just shows you what a one and done tourney can bring ya...

alot of it is matchups, and who you play in the tourney, and when, etc........basically its like trying to maneuver a minefield and who can stay alive to the final....

all that being said, Go Butler...!!

From a Ct. homer to an Indy homer, you are correct.

What's amazing is UConn was 11th in the BE preseason polls, and the so called experts said Huskies would be lucky to go 12-18 this year.

This is all gravy for me.

i was reading an article last week comparing the BCS to the NCAA tourney. for all the hell people raise, the BCS is more likely to have the two best teams in it than the tourney title game . the dynamics of the sports are different though so maybe a football playoff would actually work better than it does in basketball (to get the top 2 in the end). games like tonight just make me respect the history of guys like coach k more.

Yeah.

I agree. This tournament sucks. We should have just crowned Ohio State National Champion. Done.

Screw the Super Bowl too. Green Bay was the 6th seed, they shouldn't have been there.

As for the NCAA Hockey Championship, why play that either? Boston College should have been crowned.

UConn showed they could beat anyone when ALL the chips are on the line.

Kenda Walker and Jim Calhoun made everybody their bitches for 3 weeks, but Duke and Ohio State must have been better.

As for Butler, if you think your team is better ... It's simple ... BEAT EM.

The game is over, now back to regular scheduled programming.

We apologize for the misconception.


Sincerely,
