I am real glad the Big 10 is finally getting the credit they deserve. 2 Teams in Final 4, 3 Teams in the elite 8 that is awsome :headbang

i need unc to win it all for me to win my brack contest. But in all reallity i would love nothing but the Illini to win....i'm in a paradox.

 

If UNC and Illinois make it to the final. Do I root for UNC for the money, or root for Illinois cuz I'm a fan??

Easy call....... root for your team. The money is only there to help ease the pain if Illinois loses. Money never comes before the heart. And to go one step further never bet on your heart if you gamble. It's a bad bet.

Root for the team you like. I was in a similar situation tonight, but I'm happier with these results.

 

If Kentucky won, I would have had 3 of the 4 FF teams correct. However, I'm happy to see the Big Ten do so well in the tournament.

Well said

Now that my pulse is back to normal let me just say that I am so proud of Michigan State and the Big 10 this year.

 

We constantly get ripped for having a down year, yet when it comes down to it, Illinois and the Spartans win the big game when it counts.

 

Does it get any better than this if you are fan of either program? I think not.

 

So excited for all of the Illini fans who get to see their first Final Four since 89 and also excited for the Spartan fans like myself who get to see a group of guys who were picked by many to lose to Old Dominion in the opening round make a run at this thing.

 

Torbert, Anderson and Hill surely deserve this after the scrutiny they've been under since arriving in East Lansing.

 

What a great time to be a college basketball fan.

 

Good luck Illinois and Michigan State the rest of the way.

As far as brackets go, I have 3 of the Final Four in one of my brackets but I picked North Carolina to win in that particular pool. Now my allegiance to the Big Ten goes up against potential funds. I am not a fan specifically of Illinois or Michigan State, but you can be damn well sure I will root for them and not worry about the money. Can't let money rule over my enjoyment of the games themselves.

Heres to a Big 10 Final!!! :cheers

 

way to go MSU

yeah i was really pulling for Wisconsin to beat NC too but damn that Sean May guy made it look 2 damn easy.

I hope MSU can beat UNC

Not sure exactly what you mean, Steve, please clarify.

We constantly get ripped...etc. Sorry, but you're really not part of the team...also how much do ya hear about the team? Cause I get to hear so much. I don't say we...and I go to the damn school.

 

 

The team lost three games in the Big Ten. It was a productive season.

 

Who says Anderson is a dissapointment right now? 90% FT...

 

Torbert could never live up to expectations here, and Chris Hill is stuck because of his no true position.

How much do I hear about the team?

 

Hmm considering my Dad has been tight with Izzo since around 1997 and also very tight with Tom Crean for a long time, I'd say I hear a lot. Guess you were unaware on my background with that, not to be a smart ass or anything.

 

When I was at IU and Michigan State came to town, I sat right behind the bench with tickets Coach gave me several times.

 

In 2000, I was there when they won the title.

 

I've been a Michigan State fan for a long time, mainly due to Izzo.

 

And my comments about the senior class, well Drew Sharp and Izzo have both ripped them publicly this year and this is probably the first time anyone can say that they haven't been a disappointment.

 

Sorry to rub you the wrong way by my use of we, but I'm closer to the program than you think.

everyone thinks they are a bigger fan than the next :bang. I didnt watch Michigan St. during the regular season but from watching them in the playoffs i have enjoyed watching them as much as the Illini. I like Izzo a lot more than Webber, and ill prob root for both teams if they face off in the championship game.
