Arky is shooting 62% from the field (75% from 3).....and they are down 10.

If USC and UCLA win it would be 2 Texas teams versus 2 Cali teams. Don't think it will materialize, but it would create a backstory in the process.

We will be guaranteed a SWC final vs Pac final.

If USC and UCLA had their opponents swapped, I'd favor USC over Michigan. But with USC playing Gonzaga and UCLA playing Michigan, I don't think either one has a great chance.

Then again, the Pac-12 has been playing great basketball. I won't count either one out.

God Gonzaga is good.

God Gonzaga is good.

So far, OU has played them the toughest and still ended up losing by 16

I'll always wonder how far we might have advanced if we'd could have pulled off one or two more wins down the stretch.

God Gonzaga is good.

A very well oiled machine. I'm almost 50 years old....and they move without the ball and pass it as well as any college team that I've ever seen. And they make it look so fluid and effortless. I don't really like Gonzaga, but they are one impressive bunch this year.

So UCLA beat Michigan.

So UCLA beat Michigan.

Michigan was dead in the water once they learned they weren't getting Livers back. 6'7 senior forward that averaged 13ppg and was their best 3 point shooter at 43%.

They are good without him, but they are much better with him.

I think we could easily have made the sweet 16. Had we been seeded an 11 or even a 10 we had a better chance than the one they gave us. Or had we been the 8/9 in the other brackets we had a better chance than what we got.

I'm inclined to agree.

If we would have played like we played in that Gonzaga game, there were only two teams in the tournament that we might not had a shot against.
