Do you enjoy beer and plasma physics? If so, you just might be his spirit animal!

So, do we trust Vegas or 538? My money's on Vegas. 538 didn't predict the election correctly at all, everything they say needs to be taken with a grain of salt now, IMO. Like seriously, that Presidential race shook my faith in odds-making as a whole.

When I see a semi-plastic fluid interact with a magnetic field under ideal lab conditions I just feel all giddy inside.

Fair warning, this won't be on CBS this year. It will be on TBS, also the Final Four will be on TBS too.

Hearing that TBS is changing the format to differentiate from CBS. They will be making the entire field alphabetically at the start of the show and then slotting the brackets. Gonna miss teams waiting the entire show for their name to be called. Loved that suspense.

Yeah, it will be a real shame that ASsU won't have to wait to the bitter end to find out their bubble got burst.

Looking forward to UA being the 4 seed in KU's bracket and the eventual pounding we'll give the Cats. Better get some more dress shirts ready for the Sweat Master, he'll need them.

Kansas couldn't even compete against ASU at home and would've likely finished 9th or 10th in the Pac 12, what makes them think they could hang with Arizona?

You have no point guard. Trier is a chucker. Alkins will shoot your team out of a game. Your offense doesn't run through your two best players - Ayton and Rustic. We also have the better coach. Kansas by 20.
