HELLUVA GAME!!! A game with no losers... that was crazy!! As Jayhawk Nation rejoices!!!!
It was in... and around and around... and then...
as if John Wooden's ghost slapped it out to preserve his share of the record... for at least another year.

doesn't seem like 10-15 years ago to me
Seems like 10-15 years to me
Just to clarify, there were 22-25 teams in the tournament for nine of Wooden's wins, and 32 for his last title in '75...'75 was the first year with 32 teams. The first expansion of the tournament field was from 16 to 22 in 1953.
Nice clarification, it's weird to consider so few teams in it to win it... but... well... you know.
As Nova is putting the wood to Kansas to start the 2nd game of the night!! 19-4! ITS RAINING 3s!!

Back in the day, it was primarily conference winners in the tournament.
I only know this stuff because I'm a UCLA grad...I risk having my alumni membership revoked otherwise.
yes it was pretty much just the conference winners then
Good luck against NOVA on Monday, your team stands a good chance to win it ALL!
I doubt NOVA (or any team) can/will hit 3s again like they did tonight... live by the 3, die by the 3
Im rooting for Michigan... and Im not sure why... prolly an underdog thing.
I'd like to see NOVA go 2/40 shooting 3s tonight... cuz they used them all up the other night
Proud of our hometown team. Watching them all season, it was not hard to see this coming, but the tournament has a way of humiliating even the best teams. With many of the same players Nova could have won last year as well, but got upset in round 2. That's why I did not want to be cocky, but this team is really that good. They beat every opponent by double digits and it would have been more fun for the average fan if the games were a bit closer.

The good news for my Bracket is that I picked both Villanova and Kansas for the Final Four, with Kansas going all the way.
The not so good news is that the other half of my Bracket has been shot ever since North Carolina lost!
Oh, well, still not too bad!

12 Final Four appearances John Wooden
1962, 1964, 1965, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, 1975
all with UCLA
But... back when good ole John Wooden set the final four appearance record with 12 it was easier to be in the Final Four, at least there were fewer hoops to jump through to get there. It is easy to forget that not long ago (1978) only 32 teams started out in the tourney.
In 1939 there were only 8 teams in the tourney
In 1950 there were still only 8 teams in the tourney
In 1951 there were 16 teams
In 1978 there doubled it to 32 teams
In 1983 there were 52 teams... and in 1984 they added 1 to get to 53 teams
The 64 team tourney began in only 1985... (seems like only 10-15 years ago).
Then sometimes they added a some more chum... and now we have 68 teams.
I think 64 is enough myself, but whatever they see fit to do is fine by me.
I love this thing... it is the most sports fun event of the year, it is madness, but it is fun

Good first game...
Just waiting on the next one, it should be another heavy weight boxing match.

GO BLUE! They have Wagner and the nastiest defense in the country. We'll see if Villanova will be able to bomb away from the three like they are tonight. Kansas is soft on D. Michigan will be a whole other story. Wagner was a rebounding machine tonight. Should be a great title game of blue bloods.
GO BLUE!

Looking forward to watching tonight's game. I'll be rooting for Villanova. Not exactly sure why.
Recommendation:
If y'all missed the women's final four games and final... Go find and watch the rebroadcasts. All four #1 seeds made the final four. Both semifinals games went to overtime. Notre Dame won both their semifinal and the championship game with last second shots by the same player. Although "my team" didn't win in the final, it was still a lot of fun to watch the game and the ending. Just wish the officials could have allowed the ND girls to celebrate rather than having to wait while the clock was studied to put .1 second back.
Peace,
Mr DJA

Rooting for Villanova Wildcats. My hometown team. Plus wifey went to 'Nova Law School. Hope for Final Four but at least Sweet 16.

Ouch! Michigan got taken to the woodshed. DiVincenzo could hit a three from the parking lot. Congrats to Villanova for their second title in three years. Congrats to Michigan for making it to their seventh title game. Michigan had a great year with only three star recruits. Shows what a great coach Beilein is.
