This Virginia vs TT championship game is gonna be like 32-30, and it will be exciting as fuck.
McQuaid got a great look at a wide open 3 when it was 54-51 and bricked it. Can't do that against a great defensive team.

That Auburn game is a tough one to swallow. Don't know what that Auburn defender was thinking on that foul.

What about? The foul call was legit. The Auburn player lunged himself at the shooter, and made clear contact with his legs.

Foul was legit but they missed a double dribble before the half court that would of gave the ball back to Auburn.

They were a +405 on Monday morning before playing Mich st. Was so pissed I didn't bet when I had the chance. By Friday it was +110

I always hate taking underdogs for the big payout, always seems like a sucker bet, but that would have been a great get...all the sharks took that +405, which is why it shifted so much.

I usually hate parlays too, but was looking for something to make the game a bit more exciting. Should have just taken the obvious over bet, and ran with it.

There have been some real duds of tourneys over the last several year's. Not this one boy's.

Competition was high and there wasn't a dominate team. I definitely enjoyed this one. It always helps when your team is in to peak interest levels.

This Duke group was one of the most overrated of all time.

Could you ever imagine having the worst loss in the history of the tournament and then winning it all the following year? I think Disney would reject that script as too unbelievable. With all the reports of Addidas and Nike paying/directing recruits to the blue bloods, it's nice to see two new programs in the title game
