Well, Tennesee is still in until next Friday anyway. It looks like are going to have to play Louisville, and Oklahoma is getting smacked by them right now. I sure wish Mississippi State could pull off a win over Memphis. And North Carolina is picking apart the Hogs.

Right now is 103 - 67 UNC. I believe the hog has been picked clean to the bone.

and Memphis squeaked by Miss. State, they are not looking like a final four team.

I've always felt Memphis is way overrated. My husband thinks so also.

LadyD, do you think Davidson has what it takes to get to the final four?

I believe this is your Final Four winner.

I would say at this point Skunky that it is a possibility. They seem a good deal better than their #10 seed. The Gonzaga win I wouldn't consider near the upset as knocking off #2 Georgetown.

But I'm with Minnie, I think North Carolina is going to take it all in this one. They are playing too good. Two back to back 100+ point games.

I wouldn't put it past Michigan State to take out the Memphis Tigers next week either.

I picked Memphis to win it in my pool, as a nod to my father-in-law who is an alum... but I don't think they really can win it because they can't shoot free-throws.

My husband, who picked more seriously, picked UNC. Which I think is more realistic.

But all I have to say about this year's Big Dance is.... WAY TO GO, BELMONT!!!! I graduated from Belmont, and work there, and I cannot TELL you what an exciting thing it was when they played Duke. We were on our way home from SoWal and had to listen to it on crappy AM stations, which made it even more heart-stopping because we kept losing the game. For us, a small regional christian school, to almost pull off an upset against Duke... wow. The last two minutes of the game I don't think I even breathed... and at the end I was crying. And I do NOT cry at sporting events.

But I KNOW the coach, I KNOW some of the players... it was so personal to me, and I know how hard our boys played. They have a tremendous amount of heart, our team.

GO BRUINS!!!

Gotta agree about the UofM tigers. Two squeaker wins do not make a F4 team. Never did believe they would make it all the way and probably will get hammered by Michigan.

I am thinking NC myself
