NCAA Basketball

[Paul]

whats everyone think of it?

I was watching Kansas vs. Missouri and i enjoyed it more than the NBA ...

It was such a good game ... really entertaining

I always watch it over NBA...it's more entertaining -- it's for the love of the game, not the money

College basketball is the best! The atmosphere and passion far surpass the NBA, I think. I go to every home game at my school (Univ. of Oregon), we're always jumping around and chanting the whole game. We play Stanford tomorrow, I'll be there, can't wait!

Plus the tournament is one of the more exciting sporting events around.....it's my personal favorite after the World Cup. A big team can easily be knocked off by a smaller school with a great work ethic......and watching your team make a run in the tournament is really fun (we made the Elite Eight last year)

NCAA is an exciting basketball college competition. Just wait until March comes, most ppl here call it March Madness in which 32 schools will battle to finish the top.

Here's All College Participants.

My school (Long Beach State) really sucks ! Only won 2 & lost 15...

Eek. March Madness is the Conference and NCAA Tournaments, and the NCAA Tournament is the top 64 teams in the land.

Yeah, I watch it over the NBA too and just love the whole season, ESPECIALLY THE TOURNAMENT! Hell, one of my favorite nights of the year is the NBA Draft, not because I like the NBA, but because I like College Basketball.

The Ducks? Oh come now, just because you have Ridnour (GREAT player by the way) doesn't mean you can get past our Badgers. Devin Harris and Kirk Penny will light up anyone!

I'm thinking of running a pool in my dorm for the tournament (and taking 10%-20% off the top) should be fun as usual.

I thought it was 65 now, cause of that 16/17 playoff in one bracket, the winner plays the #1 overall seed in America.

March Madness is great, most games come down to the wire and have you on the edge of your seat the whole game!

Good thing for me, I live in ACC Country

Can't wait for the tournement

Well, technically I don't know. Because it's the "play-in game" which determines who gets into the tournament, so I'll still say it's the top 64 teams.

K. Hinrich is class

skating & surfing ? Yeah, I heard about them too. But, I'm not really into those sports. I mostly play soccer on the campus every weekend. There are tons of activities that you can find too around campus.

About the campus, it's really an okay campus. Not too big, & not too small either. There is Japanese garden, the blue pyramid (any big events held here), & mostly other general buildings like Student Union, Cafe Lounge, etc.

i go to Arizona State and even though we suck at B-Ball i like watching it over the NBA cuz like someone here said they play to be better and get drafted, so they put lots of effort into it.

Its much more exiting.

Got back from the game today, it was a good one! We beat Stanford 79-64. ShiftyPowers, you're right about Ridnour, he always amazes us, he scored 23 today, all in the second half. And the Badgers? Well I don't know what to say about that, since my cousin's a Gopher....I guess does the 2001 football season ring a bell? Looks like your bball team's doing well though, and you should definitely put together a pool in your dorm, I won 90 bucks last year in mine

And we have a Cougar on the board too? Well, most of the Pac 10 got a chance to beat us this year in football, but I wouldn't count on that upset in Pullman....does 0-10 have any meaning to you?

ASU, you guys are tied with us actually......Diogu is class, he'll be a force if you can keep him around long enough.

Yes it does. We won the axe!
