Big East.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

I am checked out. Waiting to see if we lose anyone. If we do, it creates an opportunity to improve the roster. Will be interesting few weeks.

I’ll be rooting for the Big East teams to win because it brings credibility and excitement to the conference.  That said, I truly believe we’re better than X, UCONN, and Creighton, which makes the BE’s success very bittersweet.

Not sure if anyone else was in the same boat, but I couldn’t bring myself to watch any more basketball after the MU game tonight.  Think I’ll be ready again by Thursday, though.

My wife is from Indiana, so I’m watching their annual implosion.  I’ll root for the Big East, but maybe X a bit more.

I always want Big East to do well.  But damn, Hurley is hard to be for.

I think I’m pulling for Creighton. Mac winning a national championship would be pretty funny. 

The other 2 big teams would be behind them but are 2nd and 3rd for me.

I won't be able to sleep tonight.  Any decent newly released ass kicking films?  Like something in the ballpark of The Equalizer (Denzel) or Man on Fire (Denzel)?

What's a good Bronson flick?  Ty.

I will be rooting for the Big East teams, except that as an alum I have to root for Princeton against Creighton.

As the sting of today’s disappointment eases a little, the thrill of winning the conference will be sweetened by knowing that MU achieved the championships by going 6-2 against conference teams that went to the Sweet 16 (and possibly further).

Yeah tourney has lost its luster for me now.  I will root for big East teams but really not much left.   

I hope we keep all of our players but we know we are losing at least one.   Will be obvious soon.  Hope the rest stay

I root for the Big East - if I have to pick from them, X and and Creighton would be ahead of UConn. I also root for Gonzaga as a fellow Jesuit school.
I root against the Big Ten, the SEC and the Big 12, because I hate what the football leagues have been doing to college sports. I have generally rooted against the ACC but that factor has kind of diminished lately.

I’ll pull for Creighton and whomever is Becky’s next opponent. 

Don’t care for Miller or Hurley.

Rooting for all the Big East Squads. Would love to see Creighton or X in particular win the whole thing.

I guess that makes sense .. maybe K.State because of Nowell.

Nowell has to be the most exciting player in the Sweet Sixteen.  Behind the back passes, through the legs passes, no-look passes…he put on a show against Kentucky.  The MSU-KSU game will be a good one.
