2021 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament

[Thwomp!]

It's going to be a strange one, folks.  Probably covid forfeits and huge upsets if the conference tournaments are any indications.

I've decided I'm rooting for Gonzaga.  They should finally win one, and why not in this crazy season?

I'll root for the Bonnies and Orange if they make it in.  I'm an Orange fan, but I don't see their team this year going anywhere.

I'm really disappointed in UB's effort last night.  Blown out by freaking Ohio.

I probably won't watch many of the games; none of my schools are in.  My brother-in-law is a Houston grad, so if they make it (they should), I might watch their games.

Bonnies A-10 champs

[Thwomp!]

Orange > Bonnies > Oregon St. (Yay for Beavers!) > Underdogs > any ACC team

 

The Orange's suckitude has made me hate the rest of the ACC.

Stupid Ohio missed a bunch of weeks thanks to Covid, including the last two weeks of the regular season. They came into the MAC Tournament rested and it showed with UB playing a tough OT game the night before.  However UB did get into the NIT. They will be on ESPN2 again Friday at 7pm vs. Colorado State.

Whatever

If the Drake - Wichita State game is any indication, it's going to be a great tournament.

Waiting so long between games due to covid guidelines is painful. UCLA - Michigan St is gonna be a late one.

Ohio State fans are even more angst ridden than Sabres fans at this moment.  #2 seed Ohio State falls to #15 seed Oral Roberts!!!

Ohio State people are lucky if they can spell the name of the state.  And we even gave them two circles and a straight line to start.

Good game going between Orange and Mountaineers.  WV must be in the hall of fame for taking charges.  They've gotten every one of those calls all game and has the Orange in foul trouble because of it.

Syracuse getting clowned by Houston. 5 pts in the first 10 mins. Disgraceful. This is Sabres like bad play.

Buddy has played the last 2 minutes of the first like absolute garbage. His defense is awful and his offense is non-existent. 10-0 run for HOU and I feel like he's responsible for 8 of it.

They fought back, then disappeared again in the last 3 mins. Buddy's been chucking bricks from downtown. Refs didn't help at all. Felt like I was watching a Sabres game.
