Any NCAA MENS HOOPS FANS HERE

me!! Anxiously awaiting selection Sunday. Currently my team (Michigan State) is predicted to be a 2 seed but there's a lot of bball yet to be played. Including the B1G tournament. 

I watch tons of games. You would think I would do better on my brackets. But no. It's always those ppl who pick winners based on team colors and know nothing about basketball who win their office pools. 😄

Anyway chime in if you're into the Madness and GO GREEN 💚 GO WHITE

Guess I'll pull for Wisconsin, although my heart is always with Northwestern.

Re: Any NCAA MENS HOOPS FANS HERE

@smoochy  I usually love some March madness. I am from North Carolina and there are a lot of huge mens college basketball fans here with rivalries between Duke, UNC  and Nc State.But this year it has not been very exciting. Unfortunately.     NC state and UNC  seemed to have lost their way. NC State just fired their coach Kevin Keats after such a tragic loosing season after having been  to the final four last year. John Scheyer seems to be doing an excellent job at Duke,  he is a former Duke player. UNC had a chance to win  against Duke the other day after the came back from being way behind only to end up going way behind again. Way way to many failed attempts of 3 point shots instead of taking some high probability two point shots. 

 Anyway I Love Duke , and UNC  and a lot of times pull for the underdog NC state.

On another note,  another good team is Houston cougars coached by Kelvin Sampson who is from North Carolina. I would like to see them win a championship. 

So many chanes going on in collegiate sports, it does not seem to be what it used to be.

I watched that Duke NC game. NC could've got into the big dance had they won. They  had a fighting chance. I was born and raised in Big Ten country, upper Midwest. Grew up going to Butler games with my dad. Hence my love of college hoops. 

My team blew out Michigan yesterday. I'm ready for the B1G tournament this week!

but hey, the loss gets it out of their system now, instead of a first or second round loss later. They know the mistakes they need to correct. Plus an extra day of rest that Wisconsin and scUM won't get
