Get your game faces on.

Are there any college hoops fans around here? Who do you guys like?

Here's a direct link to rankings...

March is the best month of the year. :)

I have an idea if anyone wants to play...

NCAA easy pool. You select your picks and insert them into the program. It tallies points, etc. and determines a winner at the end. Anyone want to play?

*edit*
sorry, i can be the host of the pool if you guys wish, if we have enough people who want to enter. **

March Madness is mandatory here on campus. We're required to spend every waking moment fixated on it. http://forum.ascendacoustics.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif http://forum.ascendacoustics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

I don't follow it, but my 10 year old son made his own rankings chart....guess I'll have to consult with the "expert"!

oh well, 2 votes for yes. i didn't expect many participants.

How about those ohio state buckeyes defeating no. 1 Illinois??? They were getting stomped in the 1st half. What a turnaround! That was GREAT! An unranked team takes down the undefeated team in the nation. A college bball fan's weekend highlight. ;) This is what I love about college basketball.

*disclaimer* best experienced with an Ascend surround sound system. ;)

Yeah...I am one of the two.

Starting to catch the fever now....some of my friends and I do the ESPN pool every year.

I think this year we are going to catch some of the Sweet 16 or Elite 8 at my place in hi-def, and then do some golfing.

I'm definitely game. I love the tourney more than any other sporting event during the year (yes, even more so than the Super Bowl). I love the drama, the emotion, and the fact that just about any team has a chance on any given day. A tournament where there are no "guarantees." You win, you survive, you win by one, you go on. One loss and you're done for the year. :)

And how about that Tar Heels - Duke game yesterday??? Coming from being down 73-64 w/3 minutes left to going on an 11-0 run & winning 75-73 - unbelieveable!

Bring it on, baybee...;)

Great stuff....I was swapping channels back and forth between that game and Doral golf tournament.
