OK, well, I'm a Zag fan for the next set of games. ABB. And how did the Bears not get the death penalty when all the shit hit the fan? Fuck Ken Starr.

Now that Michigan is gone, I'm kinda ok with whatever, but if I had to pick a team I wanted to win it all, it'd be Gonzaga, number 1 reason being Indiana would no longer be the last team to go undefeated. Fuck them too.

I feel the same way about a group of Raritan Rejects from that farce of a state univerSHITTY in New Jersey....

As for Michigan... I'd rather enjoy watching them get all the way there, and watch the rug get pulled out from under them... I want to see them get screwed by a bad call, like they benefited from a bad call against my alma mater in 1989

What is the lowest seed to make Final Four in NCAA Tournament?

Unfortunately for the Bruins — or fortunately, considering they had to win their previous five tournament games — history is against Cronin and Co. No team lower than an 8 seed has ever advanced beyond the Final Four, and only one such team has ever won it all (Villanova's 1984-85 team, which beat Georgetown 66-64 in the final).

Several teams have tried it since 2000, but all have fallen — some harder than others — in the penultimate round of the NCAA Tournament. Can UCLA break that trend and become the greatest Cinderella story ever? Or will the Bruins succumb to history at the hand of Gonzaga's overpowered team?

Either way, we can't wait to watch their attempt.

Didn't the NCAA eliminate Baylor's non-conference schedule for a season due to that scandal?

With all the scandals that went on at Baylor (I believe there were a lot of sexual assaults by football players a few years later), I am astounded that the NCAA did not hit them with the death penalty in either instance. Same thing with Penn State football after the Sandusky scandal, and subsequent cover-up fiasco by Spanier/Schultz/Curley.

Where was Butler seeded, when they were a missed half court shot away from beating Duke?
