I live in the St. Louis area and always watch a lot of SLU basketball. Highest AP ranking in years and one of the best defenses in the country

Duke-UNC is the best rivalry in college basketball and one of the greatest rivalries in sports. It seems like there's rarely a non-competitive game between them.

UConn women about to win their 100th consecutive game. About a third of those wins have come against ranked opponents. Incredible run.

The most exciting tournament in sports starts tomorrow. I can't wait for my bracket to get busted by some amazing upsets.

I think it'll be UNC-Arizona in the championship game on April 3 with Duke and Michigan as the other Final Four teams.

From the home of the defending champions. Calling for a rematch this year a la football. I think UNC gets it done.

Too bad you won't know what those players, except around 15 of them, are doing 5 years later.

That's the point. It's all about the one shining moment.

Even though college basketball is inferior in player quality to the NBA, it's a whole lot more exciting to watch imo. The crowds are way more into the games (even in the regular season), creating a much better atmosphere than at NBA games, and chaos reigns supreme with upsets coming out of nowhere all the time. The tournament is the best in sports because the games are a one-off—none of this series and two legs bs. Each team has to bring it every game and cannot afford one off night. Win and advance, or lose and go home.

In the NBA, I rarely watch the regular season because it's basically known during preseason how it'll play out. The only parts of the NBA season that actually interest me is All-Star Weekend, the Conference Finals, and the Finals.

Holy shit! If the Arizona - North Dakota result holds up (which it should at this point), I'll finally be 16/16 after the first day for my first time ever. Thank the based CBB gods.

RIP.

Wisconsin shouldn't have been an 8 seed though. They should've been the 5 and Minnesota should've been the 8.

Nova and SMU have now destroyed my bracket :( Had Nova losing to UVA in the Sweet 16

UVA completes its redemption arc for the 1st men's basketball championship in school history. From being the first 1-seed (and the #1 overall seed to boot) to lose to a 16-seed to becoming national champions this season.

Decided not to attend UVA because I always wanted to go to college out of my home state, but I'm happy for the school and all my friends who went there/are attending now.
