It's odd, I didn't watch much college basketball this year, but I've got a fever building for this tourney.

Go Ramblers!

It's a good year for the tournament because the Illini are so good. On the one hand, it will be fun to watch them advance a couple of rounds. But on the other hand, it will be even more fun to watch their fans melt down when the inevitable collapse occurs.

It really would have been great if Loyola was sent to Michigan's region. I think they would have had a great chance at an upset

I wish I could share in it, but an old friend won't want me to root against his son.

And they DID get screwed with their seeding.

Has Biden done a fuckin bracket?

It looks like Obama has done one.

Another sign of who the real president is.

He probably thinks Walton is still playing for UCLA

Much like the cicada, I’m all in on the Illini every 16 years or so. Lived in Champaign twice during my youth and love the Illinois program in my own way.

I dropped $20 bucks for a few brackets this year. I really want to see Loyola and Illinois play. I'll probably jump on either of their bandwagons.

MSU - UCLA , great game, headed to OT now.

Hard to believe MSU didnt win this one in regulation, with their pedigree and experience.

Unfortunately they haven't been worth watching every year. I followed them closely in the 80s when living in Champaign
and again in the early to mid 2000s. Last time I watched regularly is when Brandon Paul was on the team as he went to the same high school as I did, but the last 5 years or more have not been much fun. I generally don't consider myself a fair weather fan but with Illini basketball I admit that I have been.

EDIIT; oh wait, are you saying your friend's son is on the team? Yea that's a little different. You're excused.

Idk, Illinois Drexel doesn’t seem to offer a whole lot of drama. Arkansas Colgate seems boring, but I’m working through my annual refusal to find TruTV so I’m probably missing something.

Arkansas/Colgate was good, thankfully Arkansas woke up.
