<p>Xiggi–I love debating sports!!! (I often have delightful conversations about your beloved Cowboys!)</p>
<p>Though, if you had put any of those points/topics into your original post, I probably could not have engaged them, as I’m pretty much a neophyte in regards to NCAA basketball. But I imagine other people could have. It sounds like you are far more informed on this than me.</p>
<p>Good grief, Canes!</p>
<p>I’m trying so hard to root for OSU. I just can’t. I can’t. It’s SOOO bad. I’m rooting for Big 10 team X.</p>
<p>Yeah- I pretty much needed Miami to show up!</p>
<p>always a good night when the alma mater wins…Go Marquette!</p>
<p>Only 1 of the 5 Jesuit schools to make it to sweet 16, so we know who the Pope is cheering for! (too bad his bracket is busted)</p>

<p>OMG what is wrong with Indiana? Much as I like the 'Cuse I didn’t expect this! Hoosiers seem very uncomfortable with the zone. I wonder if they can adjust? So happy for Marquette!</p>
<p>Hoosiers have their work cut out for them. I hope they can pull it off.</p>
<p>

<p>Yep, that’s what happened to mine! Gonzaga really did me in. I was going Jesuit for many of my picks. So yeah, I was happy that Marquette won! Plus the President there is the previous president at my kids’ university and we liked him a lot. My kids even knew his dog. So JackJack’s (the dog) team won last night!</p>
<p>Aargh!!! :(</p>
<p>Go BLUE!!!:D</p>
<p>What a game.</p>
<p>Andddd what a crap game. Boo. So much boo. We can’t get anything to drop. The refs are WAY too whistle-happy. Booooooooo.</p>
<p>I am so impressed by MU’s comeback.</p>
<p>Sorry for you, romani.</p>
<p>That MSU-Duke game was a heartbreaker (and a bracket breaker for me). :(</p>
<p>Sorry, Romani–was rooting for you guys. :(</p>
<p>Romani–now you can feel my B1G pain :(</p>
<p>Hoo hoo hoo Hoosiers</p>
<p>I also had MSU beating Duke. I feel SO sorry for the IU team- it’s especially hard to lose when it is supposed to be “your year.” Louisville is looking really good.</p>
<p>Thank you Kansas! Now, I don’t have to fret over the rest of the tournament. Now, I can just hope the jerk in the office does not win the pool!</p>
<p>I am mostly fickle about who I am thrilled to see win. Sometimes it is the coach, sometimes a particular player, sometimes the alma mater of a family member (though that is no guarantee). However, I confess, I am always rooting for Duke. </p>
<p>Wasn’t Pitino the coach for the Kentucky game in that famous regional final in 1992? Of course he is coaching for a different Kentucky school now. </p>
<p>I always am interested in what the pundits have to say, who they predict will win, and then I remind myself that this is mostly about how a bunch of 18-21 year old guys get their act together in front of millions of people. No pressure there. I would hate to have my fate and reputation, as a coach, resting on a group of kids.</p>
<p>Yes!!! Go 'Cuse! </p>
<p>Atlanta bound.</p>
