March Madness
Narr:
UNLV got an 8th seed in the Midwest conference. I'm pumped. Our win over BYU in the Mountain West conference was amazing. Seriously, our season this year could not have been any more awesome. Everyone counted us out at the beginning because we lack size and 5 of our 6 best shooters from last year left. Two of our starters are walk-ons.
However, those two walk-ons happen to lead the Mountain West in two categories.
I'm not too worried about Kent State in the first round, but we'll have to face Kansas in the second. I don't see us winning that match-up, even at my most optimistic.
We should have a Facebook bracket pool up for QC. What do you guys say?
BobJoeJim:
I'm up for a bracket pool, sounds great! I wouldn't write Kent off though, Narr, I think that's gonna be an excellent first round game that I'm very much looking forward to watching as an impartial observer. I have it at the top of my list of games that I think "should be close". And Boise's triple OT conference championship game to get in was awesome, gotta pull for them in the first round after that :)
Narr:
It's not that I'm writing Kent off so much as I'm confident that UNLV can win that match-up. I've got faith in my team.
I was the only one at my entire college our in Virginia last year (which isn't saying much as there's only 750 kids there) that had UNLV progressing past the first round, let alone making it to the sweet 16. I would probably do the same this year, but I just don't see Kansas losing to any of the other teams in the Midwest.
But hey, half the fun is watching your bracket fall apart because anything can happen, you know? The NCAA tournament is probably the single most dramatic sporting event finale in any sport out there, I think, except for like the World Cup and the Olympics.
ZJGent:
I blame Dantalion.
PickItUpPutItDown:
I'm not necessarily a fan, but I've lived in Vegas all my life, so seeing UNLV get into the tournament is always an interesting story to follow.
I don't particularly care for basketball, though. I'm much more of a NCAAF fan.
Ohio State, son!
