Corey Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I Usually hate basketball, absolutely cannot stand to watch anything related to the NBA. But for some odd reason, I can sit down and watch a college game in the tournament between two teams I know nothing about. Maybe its b/c I have money riding on the games in the pool, whether I like to see the Cinderella upsets, or something I cant even put my finger on. Oh well...March Madness is in full swing! Boiler Up! Hoping the boys in Black and Gold can make a good run this year. Do it for Robbie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3quartertime Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Northern Iowa? WOW... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDB Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I hear ya. I have been a long time Kansas fan but found myself pulling for Northern Iowa. What a game. This has been a great tournament so far with 5 top 5 seeds leaving early and 7 more are playing today so the list WILL grow. And guess what the stands are still packed. I'm just glad this isn't run like another college money maker, in mean "sport". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougCarden Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Northern Iowa decided to play with a chip on their shoulder since most people thought they should have gotten a better seating in the tournament....looks like they are following through..... I am not a basketball fan, former wrestler of course... I was glued to the tube, and was hooting and hollering with the best of them! Go Panthers!

Corey Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 my bracket is currently sitting at 9 of the 16 teams, slightly better than .500. rough tournament for the big teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJDOUBLETAP Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Northern Iowa will have a pretty good chance on friday, since Kalin Lucus isn't playing for Michigan State. They will have a hard time if they get to the Elite 8 though... Go UNI! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3quartertime Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Huge shout-out to Indianapolis's own; Butler Bulldogs!!! Small school goes the distance to the final game. What a great story line. Tiny school makes it to the title game and they get to play it right in their back yard! Even though they are located in my town can't say I know much about them, but I'll be rooting for them hard! And it should be a great game!!! Go Bulldogs!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gameplayer Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Haven't been a basketball fan since IU fired Bobby Knight. But seeings how I was raised on the old Butler campus (Butler/University Ave.) I'll give them my support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3quartertime Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 I have them in my office brackett. Looking forward to them winning the NC....and getting my pay-out... WOW!!! How did you pick them to go this far? Kansas, Syracuse and Kentucky were so strong all year I can't imagine anyone not picking one of them to be in the final game. Hope they win and your super long shot pays off big! I did have Duke going to the final four, but getting beat by Kentucky. In the 'what if, fantasy' department. What if Purdue had made to the championship game? Purdue and Bulter playing in Indianapolis for the national championship. Wow, that would have been big!

3quartertime Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 What a game!!! This is a much better match up than I expected. Butler gives up some serious height across the board, but they make it up with some excellent ball control and patience... As always the second half will be the story everyone remembers, but right now it looks good for the hometown underdogs!!! If Bulter pulls the win off it will be the movie Hoosier's here like crazy!!! Go Bulldogs!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted April 6, 2010 Author Share Posted April 6, 2010 if they keep up the strong D and watch the turnovers, they got a serious chance. Duke is in the exact same position they were against Purdue tho, barely up at the half, struggling with the opposing Defense. They made some serious adjustments at the half and Purdue couldnt keep up. we'll see if Butler can..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
