    Did anyone see the UK/UL game today? What a wild finish. :eek: Wildcats come from 16 pts down at the half to win on the road against their biggest rival. What a game!!! You don't get excitement like this in any other sport, IMO.

    March is FINALLY here! :D :D :D My favorite time of the year. I could watch college basketball 24x7.

    Tournament starts soon, and University of KY looks like a #1 seed once again.:D Although I am sorry to say I think they are over-rated. :rolleyes: Illinois looks like the team to beat. And I don't think it's going to take long for that to happen once the tourney begins - just my prediction. ;)

    Illinois is undefeated. But--this is the time of year for upsets.

    Hi, Sugabella. K-State has a good team. Don't like Pro ball, though. Not nearly as exciting as college.

    Well, maybe not so well tonight. But, this loss might be so bad for their Tournament prospects **. They will be hard to beat in late March.

    "...what's a game, Girl, if you never lose. Ask a winner and you'll probably find, ooh Jackie, they've lost at sometime."

    Oops. I was a day or two early. I didn't realize they played Ohio State only today. :D


    Today was a day full of upsets. My fav team lost on the road, too. To hapless Florida. Maybe that 1-seed isn't a lock after all. :'(

    Yes, Texas is coming around at just the right time. Too bad TT didn't beat Oklahoma. I really like their coach. Just don't make him mad. ;)

    I'll bet the Indiana fans would love to have him back. I've also heard the folks in West Texas love him.

    Yes. And as the saying goes, you don't really know what you have until you've lost it. In don't think Texas Tech will make that mistake.
