Great games today and tomorrow...I'm very excited to watch some good basketball.
That and my bracket is still looking good with USC and...fucking MSU being my only loses thus far. Not so humble brag?

I think most people have no problem rooting for Big Ten teams other than MSU and OSU.
For me, it depends on the team and the sport, and sometimes the coach. For example, I have no problem rooting for Indiana in football, except for when they play us.
But IU basketball, back in the psycho Bobby Knight era? No way in hell. And losing to them in the 1976 NCAA finals didn't help.

I'll happily root for Wisconsin and Sparty. Always root for upsets!
Would love to see them knock off Gonzaga.

Yea I think MTSU takes it. They have 3 different guys that can score at will and take over a game. Horribly seeded as a 12.

I hate teams like West Virginia that foul you on every possession and dare the officials to call 20 fouls a half on them.
when they get that press rolling. Yikes.
Why does ND always have the douchiest coaches?
ND is by definition of collection of pale, angry, alchohol abusing lepers.
I had Notre Dame losing this game anyway, so the result short of the last three minutes - where admittedly anything could happen - is pleasing to me.
Lots of good ones today, I think. Happy viewing, everyone.
Mike Brey looks like he lives in a family-sized vehicle down by a swift-moving body of water.
ND loses posbang!
I will never ever ever root for OSU or MSU in any contest,other than those 2 I root for BIG 10 in Tourney.The only consolation I have if Nova wins is that they are in Dooks Regional.
Does this year's rendition of Louisville have a random white guy who can rain 3s down on us? If not, then I feel a lot better about tomorrow.
Always hate when you get a guy like him. Never heard from again, lights it up in a big game and it had to be against Michigan. Hancock I think his name was. Frickin putz.
Huggins will probably go down in history as the most underrated coach ever. What he does year in and year out against much better talent is simply amazing.
Didn't he also cheat at Cincy?
that is a good-looking team
How is Villanova so good year in and out? They don't recruit like UK, Duke, Zona or UCLA either.
Wright is a hell of a coach.
mgoblog double post special
I regret I picked them to win the tournament though...They haven't looked imposing at all.
Happ getting the Wagner treatment
is making me appreciate how good Michigan is playing. We beat them soundly and they're playing even with one of the best teams in the country. Those 3's at the end of the shot clock that they have made were blocked by us. Those extra passes for shots were tipped or guarded so well they missed. Their defense could barely hold us. I know it's transitive but dang. We put it to this Wisconsin team and they are leading Nova...
And without Happ makes it more amazing
Nova is a team that plays well into Wisconsin's game because Nova is so guard heavy. Wisconsin can keep up.
Perpetually confused by basketball refereeing..
Badgers taking it in the ear in the last 4 minutes from the refs.
called that a block.
right to his teammate
Nova is deff not used to playing against Wisco lol.
gets away with hooking the Badger on the drive. Should never have become a shot attempt in the lane.
They ignored it since it wasn't on Wisconsin.
WHAT THE FUCK? Are You kidding me? lol too funny
was in the air. BS call.
