Bummed that Michigan lost last night. They seemed to have a bunch of strong teams, but no one in the Big 10 made the final four.

Bummed that Michigan lost last night. They seemed to have a bunch of strong teams, but no one in the Big 10 made the final four. The Michigan-UCLA game was the most exciting game in the tournament so far. Both teams played their hearts out and it was too bad Michigan had to lose. The hard thing about the NCAA tournament that always strikes me as sad is that all but one team ends their season with a loss, and for many players, it's the last game of their career. On a happier note (at least for me), I'm still winning my family bracket competition and I picked three of the final four teams, so I think I'm in pretty good shape to win.

I’m exhausted after watching the UCLA-Gonzaga game! That last shot was unbelievable. Both teams played great.

I have not recovered yet. My former roommate called me crying and I didn't have any words for her. Goodness. Go Zags. I went to school there from 2001-2005. I'm ready.

Final is almost here! Looking forward to a fun game. Hope it's half as entertaining as UCLA - Gonzaga on Saturday!

If Gonzaga wins, I win the school pool. If Baylor wins, I come in 2nd.
I've already won the family pool

I don't follow college basketball but my kids have had the games on and, based on a complex formula of degrees of separation*, we're rooting for Gonzaga. * we used to live in WA, and they have starting players from both France (lived there for a year) and Canada (dual citizens) Hoping the game is as exciting as the women's final.

Gonzaga hasn't showed up for the game and Baylor is ALIVE and playing for the game of their life!

Yay Baylor! I’m so happy a Big 12 team won and even more happy I won the family pool! Gonzaga is an awesome team and had a great season.
This tournament has been so fun! I’m so glad we were able to enjoy March Madness this year!

Our power went out just before halftime. I felt like Leslie Jones in the UberEats commercial talking about last year - "I didn't get my Madness!" We're in eastern time, so it was late and I just went to bed.
Sad for Gonzaga but I was happy to see this morning that I didn't miss a fabulous comeback.

My heart hurts as that wasn't the same Gonzaga team I've watched all year, but Baylor played lights out yesterday and were totally deserving of their championship.

Congratulations to Baylor who clearly dominated from the opening seconds of the game. By the second half I was just sending all the vibes I could that it wouldn't be a 20 point spread so feel my energy accomplished something for Gonzaga.
