For me it is Northwestern.
How about you?
Easily Northwestern.
Pound the rock, go Cats.
Louisville
Nova
Butler
Vanderbilt.
No - it isn't to be contrary to the NU fans; it's my other alma mater.
So easy.
It's a tie between whichever team is playing ND and whichever team is playing Wisconsin - until both are eliminated.
Princeton freakin' had ND today. A 40% 3-point shooter was left WIDE OPEN after Brey's defense blew its assignment. It looked like the ball was going in. Dang!
Tonight: Go Buzz!
Kansas State. Then all Big East teams. Then whoever is playing Kansas and Wisconsin.
Texas Southern!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agreed. Then it's every Big East team. $$$$$$$ for MU with each win.
At the moment, I'd have to say MTSU....
Nova or SMU
Nova
Superbar

Yup, yup, yup.
Every other BE team.
Minnesota.
Arizona.
Wildcats
Northwestern
I assume Marquette is Fischer, Hauser, Johnson, Rowsey, and Howard.
My second favorite team is Heldt, Reinhardt, Cheatham, Wilson, and Marotta.
Minnesota. Unfortunately they just weren't the same team without Springs. Made a game of it around the 7 minute mark in the second half, but just couldn't finish off the run. Oh well.
Tonight, my favorite team is Virginia Tech.

1 team, not 10 individuals or starters and backups.
Northwestern. Remember back when Byrdsong was around, what a tragedy, that it felt like it was right around the corner. Glad they have gotten there.

You do know that when Byrdsong was killed, he had been gone for over two years.

1 team is our first team, 1 team is our second team. Opening post doesn't preclude that.

I wonder what JJ, Reinhardt, Fischer, and Cheatham would think if Wojo told them they aren't part of the team because they don't start.

I didn't word the OP, I didn't criticize someone for their choice. If you can't have fun on an internet message board, I'd suggest looking into another medium for entertainment.
Always been a North Carolina fan as my #2, and of course whoever is playing Pissconsin.

Yeah, but he had some good talent there with Eschemeyer and a few other dudes.
All BE teams
And whoever is playing VCU.

+1. And ever since taking a trip out to the PNW and falling in love with the Oregon Coast I've adopted Oregon's athletics teams. Plus have love for Nova.
Whoever is playing Wisconsin and Norte Dame.
Big East
Whoever is playing Wisconsin, Notre Dame, and Texas.....oops.

No Schmitt! +1 and the ball
Next fav is arizona, my adopted 2nd home and then univ of cudahay by the lake-they are fun to watch and if ya snooze you're down by 20
All Big East teams. Nova probably tops this weekend, since I'll want them to eliminate UW or Buzz on Saturday and upside from upsets is probably not as good for the conference as the bad taste of losing the top overall seed on the first weekend. And Seton Hall pulling up the rear as a team I don't really like but am obligated to pull for anyway.
Waffle House
Purdue!!!! BTFU!!
then any of the Catholic schools except Gonzaga
Northwestern...
JLD posts the best victory gifs.
ND (kids went there) then Northwestern
UConn.
Michigan.
Princeton.
Fordham.
Old Dominion.
USC.
DePaul
Nova. NU. Big East o/t than Nova.
All Big East Teams
gotta go with UCLA or UNC
Right now, I like Virginia Tech. That will probably change in 20 minutes.

We'll give you a pass in rooting for a B10 team, since you attended there.
Oh and congrats on the paper.
Actually MTSU has to be it as the underdog with S16 potential.

Superbar
Superbar isn't even in the tournament Einstein.
My second-favorite teams (Princeton, Va Tech) went 0-2 on Thursday, darn it.
We'll see how my new second-favorite teams (Nova, W Va) do on Saturday.
I was pulling for Vandy, too, so that was another L.
Happy to see X, Butler and Middle Tenn triumph.
Duke
Michigan
I have a Syracuse friend that was being really annoying after they beat us in the elite 8 in 2013. So I made sure to buy a Michigan shirt just so i could annoy him back during the Final Four and root for Michigan. I've been a fan since.
Northwestern since i went to grad school there.

Syracuse beat MU?
Xavier
Have a lot of relatives who went there.
Whoa Nelly, there are some people out there willing to stoop so low as to cheer for Notre Dame? Disgusting!
Also, West Virginny?.. after all the class act things that Bob Huggins has done? Woof.
As if this morning I only like MU slightly more than Villinova.
I'm kidding... I think....
1. Other Big East teams sans Seton Hall
2. Northwestern
3. Michigan State
4. All of the small, low budget schools
NOBODY
Only the Warriors matter.
Period, end of story.
Where can one find our bracket challenge? I filled one out, among many others, but forgot where it was... :-[
I am on the Villanova and West Virginia bandwagons today.
Arizona, but then again they've been my second-favorite team for nearly 30 years.
All BE teams
(Virginia Tech last night, so 'nova just moved to the top of the All BE teams list).

Iowa State.
Was at the BC yesterday to watch all 4 games with my mom, who's a big college BB fan and an ISU alum. Their fans arrived in force and definitely made their presence known. It was cool to see Deonte Burton back in his hometown of Milwaukee; a couple of his plays (including a big block and baseline drive for a throw down) shook the house. The team plays with a lot of swagger and is really fun to watch.
Marcus
I spoke too quickly on my Louisville call. Iowa State is my 2nd favorite team this year. Hoping Burton has a long run.
Northwestern

Anyone playing any B10 team

NO CONTEST, Huggie Bear beats ND, therefore, WV is my team, along with Gonzaga if it comes to it.
After Marquette, the Badgers.
