They’re in my final four there too.Lighten up, my friend. You want to roll your eyes when I brought up how well they were playing, you open yourself up to some ribbing about it. It’s all in fun.
But every UConn fan I’ve ever known is a complete tool. We get it: they play great basketball in the Nutmeg State. What is this inferiority complex all of them seem to have?![]()

And it should be noted that all the regions of the continental US are covered:
NW: Gonzaga
SW: SD State
South-Central: Texas
North-Central: Creighton/K-State
SE: Miami/FAU
NE: UConn
No B1G schools. No SEC schools. No Pac-12 schools. CUSA has more schools than those three leagues combined.![]()
Miami is your last ACC school standing. Let me repeat that Miami is the last ACC school standing.
The supposedly over-rated Big XII has two schools along with the Big East. Of course, the Horns are headed to the SEC in the not too distant future and Gonzaga is expected to come replace them. But that has yet to occur.
Just musings bouncing around my head this morning,

There really isn’t a Blue Blood (maybe UCONN) Left which is awesome
Texas has something to prove and I can’t believe they haven’t removed the Interim tag from their coach
Tonight’s UCONN Gonzaga game is the National Championship game….although Texas looks good
