NCAA basketball

Anybody on here watch bball? Since my school Tech has rebranded as a basketball school, I find myself watching it more than I do football. March madness is approaching...who are ya rooting for?

Current top 25:

1 Gonzaga (56) 21-1 1,496 2
2 Auburn (4) 23-2 1,413 1
3 Arizona 22-2 1,370 4
4 Kentucky 21-4 1,350 5
5 Purdue 22-4 1,163 3
6 Kansas 20-4 1,151 8
7 Baylor 21-4 1,148 10
8 Providence 21-2 1,093 11
9 Duke 21-4 1,073 7
10 Villanova 19-6 911 15
11 Texas Tech 19-6 858 9
12 Illinois 18-6 778 13
13 UCLA 17-5 711 12
14 Houston 20-4 700 6
15 Wisconsin 19-5 631 14
16 Tennessee 18-6 595 19
17 Southern California 21-4 554 21
18 Ohio State 15-6 503 16
19 Michigan State 18-6 485 17
20 Texas 18-7 410 20
21 Murray State 24-2 290 23
22 Wyoming 21-3 190 NR
23 Arkansas 19-6 158 NR
24 UConn 17-7 112 24
25 Alabama 16-9 80 NR

Texas Tech vs the world here. They just knocked off Baylor for a clean sweep. Got another grudge match against the shorthorns tomorrow. Guns up!

I'm not traditionally an Auburn fan, but they got me all excited this year. War Eagle?

Any team in the SEC that makes the top10 except Kentucky is unusual. Personally, I don’t like the game, how "the rules" are enforced (when was the last time you've seen a traveling call?. I just lack intetest in it. I like watching baseball playoffs at the college level, but besides that the only sport that excites me is football. Every August, my mom sends K a sympathy card for being a "football widow".

I haven't seriously watched college basketball in a good while. But, as with college sports. I am an LSU Tiger and want them to win. I sort of follow on Tiger Droppings

Kansas State fan here which orients me much more to football. The Cats were competitive in basketball a while back and may be again as soon as they tire of Bruce Weber. Every place he's been his best records cone early with the preceding coach's players and recruits. Beyond that the ceiling is what I call high level mediocrity. He's a pretty good Xs & Os coach. IMO recruiting is his weakness. Last Saturday they slipped off of the bubble with a loss to Oklahoma State, a team below them in the conference standings.

Watched the Michigan--Wisconson game and thought I recognized Michael Buffer doing the play by play during the brawl afterward.
