I have to agree with USC coach; NCAA absolutely wrong to put the USC and Oregon, best two teams in the Pac-12, in the same region.
 
Oregon State put up a good fight but were outmatched by number one seed South Carolina. Standard advanced to Sweet Sixteen. Three other Pac 12 teams, UCLA, Oregon, and Arizona play today.
 
Oregon upset three seed Georgia! Georgia had early lead but game tied at halftime. Ducks led by 7 third quarter but Georgia came back to take the lead in the fourth. Game was neck and neck until Ducks pulled ahead and won 57-50. They will face winner of Louisville/Northwestern.
 
Last year was a year the ladies could have won the whole tourney, I hope they karma is on their side.
 
Wow. Northwestern was up 18 and Louisville came back to win. Ducks won't have an easy time getting into Elite Eight.
 
If Florida St and Alabama make it to the elite 8 I think I win the bracket challenge. The victory is sealed if Alabama makes it to the Final 4 as the current leader nearly has an identical bracket to mine outside the East region.
I have Baylor as champs and USC in the Elite 8 so if both those happen I like my chances.
 
First #1 seed to fall as Indiana upset NC State 73-70. Indiana would have had an easier time had they not apparently attended the Chris Dudley School of free throw shooting, bricking more than half their free throws. But stopped clocks are right twice a day, true? A 50% career free throw shooter made two in the final seconds.
 
I was shocked at how ill-prepared Oregon was. I thought Altman would spend all week teaching a couple of tweaks against the USC zone. Can't play Lawson in a big game; he is a choker. Not sure why Figueroa was so afraid to take fairly open threes, and why Williams when he was the inside guy wouldn't take open ten footers. Just very puzzling.
 
Oregon women got clobbered. Their starting point guard was injured and early in the game the backup point guard had to leave with an injury. It showed, as offense ground to a halt.
 
So crazy that the OSU men are the last team from the state standing.
 
Maryland won their first two games by 40 point margins, then we're upset by Texas in a nail biter.

Today is much hyped Elite Eight matchup of UConn and Baylor. Both considered strong candidates to win it all.

Yeah, I saw that going into the sweet 16, ESPN had actually moved Baylor ahead of UConn as the tourney favorite.

Generally I'm fully pro-Husky, but I'm just not feeling it with this year's squad. Go Bears.
