Default March Madness 2015

Figured I'd make the thread.

Just want to say I hope Kentucky slaughters Arkansas today and doesn't let their boot off the throat of the HAWG.

Thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart.

Kentucky obviously the favorite to go 40-0 and win it all, Duke could upset and possibly Wisconsin as both should be #1 seeds and avoid the Cats until the final four, don't see anyone else unless UConn gets in and finds more March magic. Like Buffalo to surprise and win a couple games, Iowa State will be a tough out.

Kentucky will never go undefeated. No way they win out. they good, but theres a reason why teams don't go undefeated. Other guys are good too. Villanova , Arizona, Wisky, Duke, all have A games that will beat them on an off night. we shall see

Arizona could be there if they score enough, same with Nova...Cats are monsters on the "D" end and their height make them hard to beat, I personally love Duke and Wisconsin but things would have to fall right for them...North Carolina could get hot, so could Gonzaga but Kentucky is clearly class of field.

The team that scores the most points in each of its games will win for sure!

Mike Golic: All I've got from you guys for filling out my bracket is Kentucky going all the way.

Jay Bilas: That's all you need.


Kentucky isn't unstoppable, but it will take an opponent's A+ game and a Kentucky meltdown. I don't believe that happens. If Kentucky gets past its West region opponent, they cut down the nets.

It was my favorite 30/30. One of the all-time greats of college basketball.

The Laettner family is a dying breed. Confident, unashamed competitors.

All time great sports moments that I still remember where I was:

Duke/UK GAME
UNC/Michigan Championship game (Webber time out game)
McGuire breaking HR record
Ripken breaking Gherigs record
1987 NBA Eastern Conference Finals Game 5

I can't disagree with any of these. The steal by Bird....certainly a moment I will never forget! Walton's reaction & Ainge in that clip at the end "they forgot about Larry Bird"...priceless!!!

Chuck Daly's reaction after the game was priceless, too. The fact that it happened to the 2 biggest pricks on the Pistons (Thomas trying to inbound to Lambieer) made it so much sweeter.
