Congrats Lady Vols

Lady Vols win 2008 ChampionshipLady Vols win 2008 ChampionshipJust another quick congratulations to another College Basketball Champion.  The Lady Vols of Tennessee proceeded to hand it to Stanford last night.  Tennessee had a little bit of struggle just getting to this game as their leading scorer Candace Parker dislocated her shoulder twice in the same game during the Regional Finals, then outlasted LSU with a tip in with under a second to go in the Semis of the Final Four.  Either way, they are champions now, and have earned Tennessee their eighth Women's College Basketball Championship.  Congratulations from Who To Bet.

Mario Chalmers Celebrates Kansas' TitleMario Chalmers Celebrates Kansas' TitleIn what can only be described as one of best championship games in recent memories, Kansas came out on top of Memphis.  I had my doubts about Kansas coming into this game, going so far as to pick Memphis to cover, and if it weren't for Mr. Chalmers, all would have been correct.  I gave Chalmers a hard time saying he wouldn't be able to handle the long and strong Memphis back court, but he scored 18 on 5-13 shooting, but all of that doesn't matter, because he hit the only one that mattered...a near last second 3 to tie the game and send it into OT.  Of course, Memphis should have fouled so that Kansas wouldn't even be able to attempt a 3-point shot, but that is a whole other story.  Enjoy it Kansas, it's been a long time since you've celebrated a title!

It's showtime!  History has been made, and now we are set with basically the best Final Four in the history of the tournament.  No other Final Four group has had such a high win percentage, and you'd be hard pressed to find a more talented overall group.  Of course, you'd have to expect this type of scenario seeing at is the first time that all four #1 seeds made it, but they all made it here in slightly different fashions.  Let's get on to the Matchups...

Free March Madness Picks 2 (Elite 8)

Two tickets have been punched to San Antonio.  Actually, you know what, I hate that phrase.  Let's just say that two teams have made it to the Final Four, and they did it in impression fashion.  First, UCLA absolutely dominated in their matchup with Xavier.  I had been betting against Xavier all tournament long, and as soon I switch to their favor, they burn me.  In the other matchup, North Carolina dominated, but had to hold off a 2nd half surge that brought an eleven point lead down to nothing.  Fortunately for them, Hansbrough stepped up again and took control.  The guy is already the second leading scorer in UNC history as a Junior!  Rumor has it he has already signed paperwork for his house for next year which means he'll come back for his senior year, but let's wait and see.  So, let's get on to today's matchups.

The Elite 8 is here, and we've definitely have some great matchups for today.  We thought we had some good matchups yesterday, but it was blowout city for most of the games, which is quite disappointing as a fan.  However, the spreads are only 6.5 for each of the games tonight, so let's find out who will cover.  On to the matchups...
