2nd OT coming up in the Xavier-Kansas State game.

[flames_1987]

Man I love just being a fan watching this game. i just don't want it to end.

[Jesse834]

It sucks that a team had to lose they both deserved to play in the Elite Eight.

Kentucky has recruited another superstar player for next year (Kanter):

Wall, Cousins, Patterson, and maybe Bledoe and Orton will go to the NBA Draft next year but they already are on their way to replacing them.

Anyways, I hope West Virginia knocks off Kentucky but Kentucky should win.

I really hate saying this, but Moon is pretty much on point. Calipari will win for a couple years and get out of dodge before the NCAA uncovers just how crooked he is. The guy just bounces around bringing short term gain and long term destruction to every program he touches. In a world full of shady characters it doesn't get much worse than Calipari.

Baylor is crushing Saint Mary's 46-17 at the half!

Ohio State with a 42-39 lead over Tennessee at the half.

[OILFAN #81]

Tennessee beats Ohio State 76-73 to advance to the elite 8!

[Jesse834]

Tennessee is on to the Elite Eight. Will play the winner of Northern Iowa/
Michigan St game.

[Jesse834]

Baylor is off to the Elite Eight, Like a lot of people said St.Mary's was a terrible matchup for them.

[Jesse834]

Northern Iowa up 7 at the half.

[moon]

Duke is playing as bad as they could this half, making dumb mistakes and horrible turnovers.

Purdue is supposed to be a good defensive team but Duke is making it too easy for them.

[Displaced Flames fan]

I really hope UNI wins, but I am not going to stay up to watch it.

Hmm...8 minutes left..maybe I will tough it out.

[Jesse834]

The dream for Northern Iowa has come to end, time to cheer for Butler now.

[drew24]

It feels like I'm just cheering for teams with the best chance of beating Kentucky. I hate one and done's.
I really don't like the draft rule where athletes can't come straight out of high school.

[Jesse834]

Had to work this afternoon happy to see Butler is moving on.

[drew24]

28-26 for WVU at the half

I couldn't sit since the 5 minute mark of that half... Good good basketball game thus far.

[fundmark19]

does this go down as one of the best tourny's ever?

Me too! Work would've been unbearable had K-State went on to win the tournament....and they had a shot.

3 very annoying K-State fans with no perspective in our office. They have been silenced!

West Virginia eliminates Kentucky.

Wall, Cousins, Patterson, Stevenson, Krebs, Harris, and perhaps Bledsoe and Orton just played their last game in Kentucky.
