Im leaning towards taking Wisconsin tonight...have a feeling UNC will be the popular pick of those left.

Famous last words, but Butler looks way overmatched by UNC.

Maybe another tourney favorite is finally waking up.

I'm liking most of what I have seen from Carolina so far, but I have seen them lose focus too many times. They need to extend this lead even further going into halftime. Can't let up.

South Carolina is ridiculous right now. Pretty crazy.

Well, as usual, North Carolina decided they were done playing with about 10 minutes to go in the game.

I'm not too worried about it tonight. They won't be able to do okay like that on Sunday though. UCLA or UK will beat them by 20 with this current effort.

If they would have kept their focus, this lead would be 20 and Berry would be sitting. Instead, he's hurt yet again and the lead is 10. Seriously, fuck this.

New form of military torture.

A best of 7 between Baylor and Virginia.

Berry is still playing, but he's gonna be sore as hell on Sunday after rolling that ankle again. He won't be able to stay in front of anyone, I'm afraid.

Geneva convention would stop that after 3.

Good win for Carolina. Gotta make free throws and focus for 40 minutes on Sunday. They won't beat UCLA or UK without bringing their A+ game.

The way South Carolina has played, they honestly are probably going to the Final Four. Neither Wisconsin or Florida are going to scare them and their defense is just crazy good right now.

Again, where does Thornwell fall in the draft and is he the next Kawhi?

Thornwell won't even be a first round pick. Too small to be a 3 and an average at-best athlete. And he'll be 23 years old. Not exactly the most coveted draft profile.

Does he make an NBA team? More than 5 years in the league?

Staying up to watch Xavier until 1:00 and then driving 65 miles to work at 6:20 am...not recommended

Lol. Yeah, I was pretty tired this morning too.

Fox has outplayed Ball in the first half. He has been amazing.

What is the point of driving that every day?
