I really want UF to beat AU. I think that semi will be a great game! That game will be good on good!

I think Duke will get by Houston, but Houston is a tough out. Just think Dukes size/length will be too much for them.

UF/AU vs. Duke for the Final.

I'll be rooting for UF (Go Gators) over Duke.

If it's AU vs. Duke, I'll being flying my Blue Devils "Flagg!!!"

I don't live in Alabama but I can't imagine how insufferable the Barners will be if they finally win a NC in basketball.

Thank you, @BamaMoon !

Feel the same about the games.

I'm not confident the Gators can beat Auburn again. They need to stop with all the turnovers and get their 3's going again.

Duke vs. Florida would be an amazing final, so we'll see......

Alijah Martin interview on Finebaum today was pretty good - kid's got a good head on his shoulders!

Nobody cares...close this thread!

IF I watch, I'm pulling for the Gatazza's.

This is almost exactly my view.

I think Fla and AU will be a nail biter for most of the way but that the Gators pull away in the final 5-10 mins.

I think Duke just wallops Hou though.

Fla vs Duke for the NC and on paper it could be an All-Time Classic.

It does not matter to me which SEC team wins to be honest. I’m pulling for UH over Duke.

UF, Houston, Duke and if not them a big whole in the earth.

Duke, Florida, then Houston, I have Duke and Florida with Duke cutting down the nets in our office bracket

 

[BAMAVILLE]

Fla and Duke

 

[CajunCrimson]

Two notorious cheaters, one given the keys to a kingdom and told not to burn it down, and an alleged creeper. Not much here to pull for to me. I guess Florida is preferred.

King Honda of Auburn/Honda ran a March Madness commercial. I’m dying because Aubies are in meltdown.

Been a long week waiting for today's games.

I'd be lying I said I wasn't a little nervous!
