How West-leaning is the Elite Eight? The University of Michigan in Ann Arbor is the Eastern-most remaining entry in the field at 10 hours from the Atlantic. It is the only team left from the Eastern Time zone ... and yet the Wolverines hail themselves as the "Champions of the West!" That's because at the time the Big 10 was the Western Conference, it didn't become the Big 10 until much later. ( And Even Big 10 became obsolete when Penn State joined )

Baylor vs Houston in one Final Four matchup. Last time Baylor got this far was 1950 , when the tournament had just 8 teams. Back then,Baylor lost to Bradley then lost the third place game to NC State.

I'm cheering so hard for the Zags and trying to keep up with the PBJ stuff and, boom, official Bert Smith collapses on the court. Yet another example that all the rest of this is secondary! Thoughts and prayers to Bert and his family!!!

Very odd half. I can't tell if it's bad offense or good defense? Other than Juzang no one is playing particularly well. Only 3 Bruins have a scored.

UCLA hangs on! They are just the second team ever to go from the First Four to the Final Four!

Jesus Christ is the Big Ten overrated. What’s more overrated - Big Ten basketball or Big Ten football?

First time ever that there isn't a single Final Four participant from East of the Mississippi.

Granted I have not seen as much college basketball as others. This Gonzaga team might be the best college basketball team I have ever seen.
