What way did I act? I didn't rub it in. Not one word to you because I'm sure you're pissed.
Aside from S&L, anyone rooting for any team in particular?

I would love to see Loyola win, just for the story. But I really don’t care.

Ditto. Michigan would be my second choice.

You wouldn’t let S&L be cordial.
Just a joke lol. I ok.
Loyola winning would be insane. Be hard to fathom really. Definitely won’t root against them.
Michigan? Meh, won’t really bother me if they win but prefer they don’t. Houston shit thy self...I don’t like that part of it but wasn’t Michigan’s fault.
Villanova...seem clean cut but like 02 mentioned they get away with hand checking many teams don’t. Brunson is tough but prefer someone else win.
Kansas...mixed feelings. I like Graham. Little bitter Newman looked like Klay Thompson but players are supposed to step up.
I guess based on that I’m rooting for Loyola and however the game goes will determine who I pull for with the other 3. I do have Kansas winning my bracket but bracket not in quite good enough shape to win a big pool.
Definitely rooting for Loyola, but just don't see them beating any of the other three that are left. I'm still pissed at Nova for 2016, and Kansas is a blue blood and is competition to my team when looking at the big picture. Obviously, my dislike for Michigan basketball isn't even close to what it is for football, but I still don't want them winning.
I only picked one Final Four team correctly. Had Nova losing the title game.
I had 3/4 final four teams but still need Kansas to win it all to win my bracket league. Shit

Who did you have Kansas facing in finals?
I’m rooting hard for Kansas to win it... mainly because I’m in a random team pool and I drew Kansas and I would win $680 lol

Same here but had UNC instead of Michigan, that was my toughest decision of that bracket and I went the wrong way

Had the same decision. Had Carolina made it to the Sweet 16, I liked their chances since they beat Michigan convincingly during the regular season. Never really considered that they wouldn't even make it that far. I guess Michigan is pretty fortunate that they didn't get ousted by Houston though.

I agree about Loyola not beating them BUT I didn’t think they’d win any games so....what do we know.
posted by Ironman92Lane violation on 5 players...no call
Did enjoy the replay showing the slap on the arm
Random to post this here, now...but, you don’t call a lane violation unless the FT is missed. Had it been a miss, he would’ve gotten another (Kansas was at fault). Had it been on Duke, immediate whistle and no FT taken.

True. They've been defying the odds for four games now. Hope they can keep it goin for two more.

Two of the players were Duke. I thought that negated the free throw regardless of Kansas violations.

It’s only who goes in first, or more precise, who causes it. There can’t be “multiple” lane violations. After there is one, that’s it.
No one is talking about how lucky Michigan has gotten to get to the FF. I am fully expecting a Loyola win and them playing for the championship.
They had to play a fricken 9 seed to get to the FF, and the 7 seed A&M and not defending champs UNC in the sweet sixteen.
14,6,7,9 and now 11 to get to the championship game lol unreal.

This is all very true. But Michigan is playing lights out. 32 wins is the mark of a very good team, and while the B1G is way down, they won the conference tournament, so they are definitely on fire.
All that to say...I think they would’ve beaten UNC and/or X if they had needed to play them.

Definitely wasn’t trying to say they aren’t a good team. Just that they’ve beaten some average teams on their way here. I’m taking Loyola over them next Saturday.

Yeah, I think I am too. Loyola plays a style to perfection, and they can execute it well enough to beat Michigan. Michigan is better than anyone Loyola has had to play, so I expect it to be a really fun game.
For title purposes, a Michigan win likely makes for a better game. Kansas or Nova are disciplined enough and athletic enough to just beat Loyola no matter what they do.

It was a photo finish for that only violation lol

Yeah, usually they will judge the person causing it. Like, if you initiate contact on the box out too quick. Not necessarily on who is in lane first.
Anyway, enough about that play lol.
