Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

16 games today and not a single one including the Big East. Nevertheless, one of the great day on the sports calendar.

Kevin Willard gets his 1st NCAA win in 5 years.

Furman just took the heart out of Virginia.

What a crazy finish to that game. Thought Furman had blown their chance for the upset.

Losing Thursday afternoon sucks. MWC about to hit an 11 game losing streak.

ACC fans used to gloat about having 4 Hall of Fame coaches: K, Williams, Pitino, Boeheim.
Now they are down to zero.

With UVA already knocked out, the ACC is down to 4 schools remaining in the tournament.

Tony Bennett has aged like 25 years since his epic loss to UMBC. I don't think we get many coaches coaching into their 70s anymore.

South region is in disarray already. Praying that the Jays catch lightning in a bottle.

Honestly, it wouldn't really be lightning in a bottle fluke run. Creighton has the goods to thrive in this format. I thought Arizona was vulnerable, but Creighton's going to get tested by NC State and if they can survive that, Baylor.

Auburn/Iowa is like the type of matchup nobody cares about. Hopefully Duke/Oral Roberts isn't a blowout.
