NCAA BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

I am amazed and amused at all of the thoughts that people have about the NCAA basketball tournament.  Coaches are coaches and there is no such thing as a tournament coach.  In being able to advance in the tournament, we all hear about matchups, which is true. We hear about seating which is somewhat true but we need to remember that every team that you play is as good or better than your team or they wouldn't be there.  You have to play well to win but there is also some luck involved in being able to advance.  The ball has to bounce the right way and avoiding injuries play a big part in your success.

Several games come to mind that could have easily gone either way.  Their teams were alike,Vandy and Wisconsin, Murray and Marquette, Cinn. and Florida State.  All of these teams were similiar in style.  And if you played these games again, the other team might win.  You could start this tournament all over again from scratch and probably have 10 new teams in the Final 16.

Keep watching and have fun.  Wimp
