First Four to Final Four - not too shabby. Glad the Pac-12 didn't go unrepresented. And, the Big 10 is officially put out of their misery.

Man, UM guy has 2 chances in the last 30 seconds to hit a 3 for the likely W. Airballs one and clanks the other. That’s gotta suck. Nice to see a team we beat take down a #1 seed. Nice to see a PAC-12 team (that’s not the *ucks) back in the Final Four. Now time to rain on the Zaggs parade.  |

Yes, hats off to UCLA! I can't wait for some great grind it out battles with them at Gill and Pauley in the future (and Pac 12 tourney and NCAA Tournament).

Amazing that they were a play-in just to get into the tourney and now they’re in the final 4. When was the last time a school did that?

The tournament field is 68 teams and UCLA have won 5 NCAA tournament games. |

Michigan was much more obliging. |

The tournament field is 68 teams and UCLA have won 5 NCAA tournament games. At the same time, you have to win the First Four to play in the "First Round." I guess that makes the First Four the Zeroth Round? That is as out of the Tournament that you can get without actually being out of the Tournament. |

My primary point was that you both have valid points. |

Pac-12 got 18 units: UCLA 5, Beavers 4, USC 4, Oregon 3, Colorado 2. Oregon's walkover vs. VCU counts as a unit, I believe. Finished with a 14-4 record.
I thought Colorado had the muscle to go the furthest, since NCAA games are sometimes wrestling matches. LOL, they're the first ones out. That explains my bracket!
