    I have Michigan State to win it all in the pool I am in so that pick is still looking good.

    March Madness morphs into April Apathy as the frenetic pace of games freezes for a 6 day pause until the final four completion.

    Only three games remaining, should be played on Tuesday and Thursday of this week.

    There is someone in my area (Illinois) that still has a perfect sheet! Can you imagine that! I don't know what his final picks are. I wonder if anyone has ever had a perfect sheet?

    Wow, great Auburn/Virginia game, tough ending for Auburn. Imagine if their big guy wasn’t hurt, probably the best team in the tourney

    That was a good call on the foul at the end, but they missed the double dribble before that would have sealed the win for Auburn.

    I didn’t catch that call live, neither did the announcers, did you?

    Paul Finebaum will be epic Monday.

    Auburn got the shaft but that kid from Virginia was money in the end.

    I saw it right away. It was right in front of me. When he picked up the ball and started dribbling again.... I said WHOA DD!!!

    Great game, bad call on the no DD. I did think the shooter was fouled at the end. If you're the defender and your team has the lead, you can come close to touching the shooter for fear of a call. Give the VA kid cudos for hitting those three foul shots on the biggest stage, and after getting iced on the third one.

    You’ve got another career waiting as a big time referee!

    The guy who put $1500 on Texas Tech to win it all at 200-1 must be jumping for joy right now. I think the safest play is to put $150k on Virginia to win, so he would be guaranteed to win $150k. What do you guys think? Obviously, that’s based on the assumption that Virginia is even money to win, which might not be the case.

    UVA is a slight favorite but I for sure would lay off some action.

    On a separate note the O/U is at 118. That’s intriguing

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    I think Texas Tech will win, they looked very impressive is wins over MSU, Michigan, and Gonzaga. Both excellent defenses, I would take the under 118.

    This NCAA Championship game is unbelievably great!

  • DIMEMANDIMEMAN Posts: 22,403 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Great game. I think Texas Tech. wins in regulation if they let the guy go to the rim for 2 instead of collapsing in on him and leaving the 3 pt. shooter WIDE open to tie it and go to OT.

    You have a 3 point lead why guard the lane!!!!!!

  • JustacommemanJustacommeman Posts: 22,847 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Great entertaining game with lots of clutch plays
