NCAA Tournament

Wouldnt it be hilarious if byu won and claimed it as a "National Championship"

wait, they already do that...
 
Someone is feeling bad they aren't in a tournament.

This is a serious thread, stop ruining it with your Yewtiness.

[I'm on to you, you actually came here to brag about being the 1947 NIT Champions, and for losing in the NIT in 1944, then going on to the NCAA tournament and winning it, then beating the NIT Tournament winner right after that. You bragger you! You would fit in nicely at the Y if you would stop wearing red and pretending you are kewl and a rebull]
 
I'll be there tonight. Sounds like BYU would still be at home in round 2 if they win also because TENN's court is being used by the NCAA women's tourney. It looks like a decent bracket.
 
This IS the womens tourney Suck Rodgers.

ahahahahahahahahah

One Brow thinks you are a misogynist, and not funny.

You sure are a big talker after your team got a couple of wins at the end of the season, don't let it get to your head Suckli Babi.

Meh.. UGLI's always a big talker.. always. Very cocky and kind of obnoxious about being generally 'better.'
 
Anyways... enough of Ugli's ego, and back to the topic.

This real NCAA Tournament is going to be epic. I'm really hoping for a showdown between the 2 juggernauts BYU and Kentucky.

I'm as pumped up about this as UGLI is every time he sees himself in the mirror... well, maybe not that excited.
 
Leave UK alone.

0 NIT wins against Robert Morris
 
I had no idea whatsoever. This sucks.

Maybe BYU can pull out a win though. All is not lost PKM. Just root for BYU for this Tourney. They won't let you down... okay, they probably will.
