Bama and Florida are already through to the elite 8.  Bama dominated BYU with record setting 3pt shooting (25-51).

Cooper Flagg is taking over.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

That was probably the best game of the big dance that I have seen.   Both teams back and forth between two teams that were just going at it.
Congrats to Texas Tech.

All my final 4 picks still in it: Tennessee, Florida, Auburn & Alabama..got Florida winning it all..yelp all SEC

Four football schools, only one of which cared anything about basketball pre-1975 (Tennessee) or pre-1990's (Florida) or pre-Bruce Pearl (Auburn).
Alabama hired CM Newton in the mid-70's and he recruited great players. Florida didn't care about much of anything before Steve Spurrier.

It's interesting that we might end up with a pretty chalk Elite Eight.  There's a strong possibility that it's 1 vs. 2, 1 vs. 2, 1 vs. 2, and 1 vs. 3.

Whoever wins this thing is going to have to run a gauntlet of very good teams.  Hopefully that's Duke, but that's going to depend upon how physically they're allowed to play.

Absolutely game of the tournament. 16-3 run to end regulation, and then OT was intense for both teams. Every possession was monumental. What it's all about

Have to give Clayton Jr credit. He took over for FL and made some very difficult shots.
