Can't hit layups, won't win the game.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Dammit, protect the ball.

[Jon]

UCLA still doesn't believe that Kansas has the ability to strip the ball, apparently.

 

And I don't get why UCLA would pass up wide open layups. On the last one, if Collison got rid of the ball, they would've gotten the easy 2 and burned more time doing it.

[snoodmonger]

Congrats, Raisin. beat FLa, plz.

Too bad for UCLA that they have to play Florida next (assuming Florida beats Oregon which I believe they will).

yeah, and they won't get a home game against that 1 seed. :wink:

[WindyCity]

Way to go Bruins!

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Yay!

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Thanks. Easily the best team we've played all season. KU is scary good - esp with Wright returning.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

And I loved the "One more year!!" chants as Arron was being interviewed on the courts. :)

 

And I just found out my old college roommate was AT the game. Lucky bastard.

[Coach C]

Good job UCLA. You guys played solid and smart basketball, and was able to convert oppiturnites.

 

KU had their oppiturnities, just could not convert them.

George Mason made the Final Four last year with like the 150th most talented team in the country. Not a good measuring stick

[Sosa21MVP]

I realize both teams had a lot of steals but man Kansas was playing like the ball was greased with vaseline. :lol:

 

I'm feeling a Florida-UCLA rematch in one national semfinal. 8-)

With tonight's wins I'm now #1 in the NSBB Yahoo Pick Em' Pool. If Florida and G-Town win tomorrow, I'll have the Final Four picked 100%

If Florida wins, I'll have picked 3 of the 4 correctly. I've never done that well. My only mistake was Texas.

For the sake of my bracket, I hope you pick the Final Four 100%.

How can that be? I'm listed as #1 and I definitely have the most overall points. I also have Florida and G'Town along with UCLA/Ohio State.

College basketball isn't done yet?

give me break. we lost to last year's runner up (who should have been a 1 seed) in their own backyard. I'd hardly put the blame on Self. I'm so sick of bitter illini fans talking smack about Self's coaching. We lost to a great team. At least we didn't give up a huge lead in the waning minutes to lose to a mediocre VT squad.

 

Have fun with your mid-major roster in the big ten. I'll stick with Self.

There's two nsbb pick'ems. The one I started in this thread you are number 1. I don't know about the other one except that there's a thread on it in the general fantasy sports forum.

 

Our group is doing exceptionally well. I'm in the 91st percentile of all yahoo entries, but I'm only in 6th of the 10 entries in our group. All 10 of us are in the 70th percentile or better.

 

But when Florida and NC win tomorrow, I think I'll be ahead of you. ;)

With today's action, I've moved into a tie for 3rd in the NSBB Facebook Pool. I too have Florida and Georgetown in the final 4. My championship game is actually Florida vs. G-Town, with Florida winning.

Watch the end of the Division II national championship game. Absolutely insane. The video quality if bad, but its worth it.

Highlights were on my local news (Barton, the team that wou, is a local team). I actually interviewed for a teaching position at Barton several years ago but took a job at another school (in the same area) instead.
