Re: College basketball
St. Peter's has proven themselves to be a formidable force - as their coach said, "what do they have to say about us now?" But eventually Cinderella's shoes turn into pumpkins, usually. And St. Peter's has ridden that glass slipper for a long time. Still, if they were playing anybody else but UNC or Duke, I'd root for them - even against the 'Canes. They have a great story and definitely a "one shining moment" in this tournament. So GO: Heels, Canes, Blue Devils, and 'Nova.

So great if Coach K can retire with a Championship season.

Re: College basketball
John Wooden did that in 1975, but then he won 10 of his 12 years at UCLA . Coach K's 13 Final Fours now beats Wooden's record . He has never faced UNC in MM.billy.pilgrim wrote: ↑Sun Mar 27, 2022 8:48 amSo great if Coach K can retire with a Championship season.
2 Villanova won, but may be done.

I would root for it vs 1 KS, not vs 10 Miami.

Re: College basketball
It occurred to me that in the possibly unlikely event that the 'Canes get past Kansas, we'd have a Final Four to be happy about no matter who eventually wins. Sure, I'll root for UNC today, but if Cinderella keeps riding their pumpkin to the Final Four I couldn't be too upset about it.
If you were Roy Williams, you'd think it's pretty cool if UNC plays Kansas that you were the head of one or the other of those programs for 33 years.

Re: College basketball
UNC vs. Duke for the chance to go to the championship. Doesn't get much better. Bad thing is, whichever one wins will probably lose in the final, just by totally exhausting themselves.

Re: College basketball
No preference? You think the other semi will be a cakewalk?
Final 4, GO
Duke (2) favored by 4 early > N. Carolina (8 Cinderella).
Tough call, but 1st year coach has many years of opportunities. Go last year coach!
Villanova (2) > Kansas (1) favored by 4 early, but 2nd half Kansas looked unbeatable.
Is anyone else appreciating a playoff without the Big 10 or SEC?

OK, so it doesn't matter to me personally - I get TBS, but seriously - they're not showing the Final Four on CBS? TBS? Really?
