The greatest thing about College Basketball is the heart. You have kids in College playing their very best for a spot at a tournament- which really is a HUGE deal in the States- as big as the Superbowl really (especially over time), but not as big world-wide of course. These kids play as hard as they can, knowing full well that most of them will never ever make it to the NBA. Some may make it to the farm, but this IS their NBA, big time, time of their life, etc.
The heart and soul of the kids in College ball is what makes upsets happen. Almost any team can beat another at any time, during the regular season or in the tournaments. The tournament is full of buzzer beater games that are sit-on-the-edge-of-your-seat fun.
It's very hard to resist once you become addicted. You just have to watch a few games, a real sports fans won't be able to help themselves.
NBA is all about individual players, whereas College is about the team coming together as a unit, in my opinion.
