President Obama picks….

It is odd that all these people are picking us, including Bilas to the final four, and yet we got a 5 seed. I don't think we got picked this much when we had Zion, lol. Online gambling is not legal in Texas or I would have put a few hundred on Duke and even Marquette, given the odds. I could drive a few hours and do it, but I'm too lazy to drive that far unless a whitetail buck is involved.

I agree - I love this team but they’ve had a good run against (on paper) mediocre teams sans Miami. They’re also very young and will be playing some veteran, battle-tested teams should they advance.

I agree. All the underrated talk has probably caused us to be a little overrated. We are probably somewhere in the middle. If the team continues to improve anything is possible.

Glass half full: Five ACC Teams made the NCAA Tournament. So Duke had to beat an NCAA Tournament team in each of their three games to win the ACC Championship.

Glass half empty: Furman just took out one of the ACC'S top 3 teams all year.

Injury factor? Vander Plas for UVA, how big a factor today and Saturday? though we know offense is not their strength and nor is free throw shooting. Has anyone heard anything about Miami's starter that got hurt Friday?

Fourteen bless you, talking hoops in general is enjoyable (especially ever since I was fired by Miss Cleo in the late 90's and I'm a rarity in Vegas). But to make you happy, I've been so busy this week I had a mad scramble at 11:30 to complete my bracket today before the office pool deadline at 12:15. FYI I picked Virginia so enjoy!

Oh and I picked West Virginia so it's not starting off well.
