I'm not a fan of basketball but you don't have to be a fan to have enjoyed the games over the weekend. After maybe a few to many I really got into the FL/Butler game cheering for Butler when they were down by maybe 12. I'm probably now hooked on the sweet 16 and will watch again next year.

I like college basketball a lot but not a huge basketball fan, football is my favorite sport by far. Outside of the CAA I don’t really keep up with many teams; ill watch VT when theyre on tv and ill watch Duke since their always on tv. But I think the most exciting thing in sports is the NCAA tournament by far. It surpasses playoffs and the Superbowl for me. You have seniors that are playing the last high level basketball game of their lives, freshman in transition to the NBA not used to losing, underclassmen who want to help their seniors dreams come true, first time NCAA tournament crashers, unbelievable upsets, multiple high intensity play/effort/hustle basketball games at once all day long, girls winning their office pools, experts eating crow, Cinderellas, and a stark difference in emotions on the 2 opposing sides of the court once the final horn is blown.

Obviously with the Rams winning this has been the most enjoyable and memorable tournament for me so far, but this is something I say each year to my friends. This is the best event in sports.

GO VCU!!!!!!!!!!!!

You do realize the tournament starts before the sweet 16 right?
