Baylor not looking great against Nova rn still close though, their women's team also won in OT earlier in their tournament game.

The offense is playing horribly right now. Villanova's defense is fire right now. They aren't giving Baylor any room to try to put up the points. I'm sure HoHo's watching the game right now.

Gonzaga beats Creighton 83-65, to advance to the Elite 8.

Michigan moves on to the Elite 8 beating Florida State 76-58.

After a huge run by Bama early in the game, UCLA suddenly got hot late in the first half to lead the game 40-29. I knew this would be a tough game for the Tide as they face a good shooting team that is the Bruins. Bama needs to find their consistency again to get back in the game, or else it'll be too late.

And the bad news is, Herbert Jones picked up two fouls in the first 41 seconds of the game, he's now on the sidelines for his mistakes. Come on dude!

Bama ties the game at the buzzer at 65 all, to take the game into overtime!!!

I think I have three teams left - no idea how good any of them are.

There goes the end of the road for Bama, as they lose in overtime, 88-78 against UCLA.

They had better shooters that night than Bama did and they managed to show up in overtime, beating the Tide in double digits. Despite the loss. I'm still proud of those guys making it to the Sweet 16.

There's always next year.

ROLL TIDE ROLL~!!!

Houston's headed to the Final Four for the first time since 1984, beating Oregon State 67-61.

Baylor's Mulkey: 'Dump' COVID testing for Final 4

Baylor women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey said the NCAA should "dump" COVID-19 testing for the Final Four. "Wouldn't it be a shame to keep COVID testing and then you got kids that test positive or something and they don't get to play in the Final Four?"

Just lost all sympathy I had for Baylor after getting screwed on that no-foul call against UConn lmao

Gonzaga's advances to the Final Four, beating USC 85-66.

Baylor also advance to the Final Four, for the first time since 1950, beating Arkansas 81-72.

After Gonzaga's win, I have three teams in the Final Four (Baylor, Gonzaga and Houston.)

#11 seed UCLA upsets #1 seed Michigan, in a low-scoring game, 61-59, to advance to the Final Four, for the first time since 2008.

Only chance Gonzaga don't win is if Baylor pulls out the performance of their life and Gonzaga have an off day.

 

[Wolverine]

Baylor's headed to the National Championship, defeating Houston 78-59!

Now, comes the other Final Four game, between the Cinderella team of UCLA. Vs. the high powered, undefeated team that is Gonzaga. The winner will play Baylor for the title.

What a story it would be for either team. For UCLA, if they can pull off a gargantuan upset, or for Gonzaga, they can remain undefeated if they manage to get the victory.
