NCAA Tournament

I just don't like the state... Tending to be more liberal of a state, IN is more of a Republican state. The issues go on and on with me and IL. Although I love Chicago, Seattle may be the only other big city I like better then Chicago.

Villanova gets robbed!

With 20 or so seconds to go traveling is called when the guy is bumped before his third step lands. Should have been an +1 if anything.

The Utes go down.

OMG - My Fighting Illini outscored Arizona 17-3 in the last 2:48 to send the game into OT. They then got a HUGE defensive stop at the end of OT to win by a score of 90-89. One of the best College games I have ever seen played.

WOOHOO!!!!!

We turned from the Arizona/Illinois game, and Arizona was leading by 15 I believe, then the score comes across the screen saying that Illi won!...I wish I could have seen the whole game...sounds like it was a thriller.

Congrats 6th what a win for them tonight. Next game is a tough one and I am not gonna root for either this time. I like Pitino as a coach and have been pulling for them also.

Either way it will be a great game and I think Ill has the edge and is a better team.

I'm sorry Arizona didn't win. I was hoping Mike Bibby might have something to brighten his day...

Since the Wildcats are out, I'm going to have to root for Louisville especially after watching their comeback...

GO CARDINALS!!!!!

I'm confused. You don't like Illinois because they tilt left, but yet at the same time you like Seattle? You must have some other reason for liking Seattle.

Being a Californian I can't pull for a team thats been #1 most of the year thats from the big10, it just wouldn't be right. In all honesty I had them getting upset in the second round. Don't ask me why.

I just hope NC doesnt win it! I cannot root for an ACC team. Wouldnt mind seeing ILL or Mich State win it though.
It is unbelievable that there are 2 Big 10 schools in the final 4. We certainly are not used to that. I am rooting for a Big 10 final.

GO BIG 10!!

Illinois has never gone past the Final 4 to reach the Big Game. It is their time.

GO ILLINI!!

Had Wisconsin not screwed up against NC it would have been 3 schools from Big Ten... But back to Illinois - Arizona game; that was the best college basketball game that I have ever seen and the most exciting basketball game that I saw (as a fan) since April 16, 1992.
