i appreciate the help. i forgot there are those with smaller screens, and they may not be able to clearly see the bracket results. sorry about that, and thanks for the help "rickctroop13". ;)

 

by the way, i received the Blazing Sun Micro Geocoins today from "crowesfeat30", and they are really cute! pretty little round geocoins, the perfect prize and shape for a little round ball tournament! :blink:

With apologies to our Spanish speaking audience... will the Wildcats from Philly be going to the Sweet 16?...... NO-VA

I just do not get how the seeds are made like that! If a seed 11 team is not so good comparing to a Seed 3... how Washington is 20 points ahead of New Mexico???

 

Kansas was 1 and lost from a 9...

 

SMC was 10 and won a 2!!!

 

Ok... it is a game and in games with ball.... you are never sure of a result, but....

 

sorry for asking... A long time ago.. Greek TV used to show a small USA basketball championship... probably college... and there was a good team named UCLA... I can not see it in here... isn't this team playing here? Is it in an other leage?

this is exactly why it is called MARCH MADNESS! in one game of basketball, if the players are motivated and play hard, they can beat a better team...for just one day...for just one game...for just one shining moment...they can be better! its an amazing thing to see!

 

as for UCLA...yes they are a Division 1 University, but they did not have a very good season this year, so they were not invited to play in this tournament. there are close to 200 Division 1 teams in the USA, and only the top 64 get a chance to play in this tournament every year, so it is a very elite field of invited teams.

 

UCLA has won this tournament the most times with 11 championship titles!
