Heartbreak. I will miss this team so much. I've gotten to know and love many of the players. I've been dreading this day for over a year- not the loss, but the end of the team.

With the Duke loss, the 2012 version is already in the books as great. Could not care less who ends up winning.

Go Blue Devils! There is always Lacrosse.

PS too bad for Vandy.

Every year I have a "real bracket" and a wishlist bracket. As a fan of the Big 10 I am sitting pretty right now with IU, Ohio Sate and Wisconsin. I never thought I would see a sweet 16 with this many corn-fed, hand spanked fans.

MB,

I hope after today there will be more from BIG in there.

My bracket is Big 10 heavy, too. Worked out splendidly so far. I have MSU and OSU in my final four so fingers crossed that they do well. I was wise enough to not have Michigan going too far though.

I'm currently in 1st place in my pool so working today and not seeing the games is torture. -.-

I'm happy to see Big 10 doing well, especially when my team is in the mix .

MOWC - completely agree about this team. It has been wonderful to see them get better and better as the year progressed. I enjoyed the team when Shan Foster was a senior, but this group has delivered even more to the fans, IMO.

My alma mater, as usual, failed to produce a winning season and therefore failed to make the tournament. Argh!!! Thus, every year I happily root for an underdog like Lehigh. Hate the brown uniforms though.

Not a Duke hater but Coack K's superior attitude burned my britches years ago. Typically great ball teams, but often boorish behavior demonstrated by those squads. Just like the BYU football teams of the past.

I'm sorry about Vandy, too. Last Sunday's game was amazing. I'm getting over my Mizzou mourning and starting to pay attention again.

With Wisconsin playing Syracuse, I am conflicted as to who to cheer for.

My bracket and I would really like to see a NC St upset against Georgetown. I'm also cheering for Lehigh and Norfolk St as those parts of my brackets are busted and I love a good cinderella story.

I'm bummed that I can't find the games on the radio here at work. My ESPN app is just not the same

It's worth paying the $3.99 for the March Madness app that lets you watch any game at any time and get all the scores.

Indeed I did and I'm comfortably in first for the time being. Now, let's go green!
