Never mind. Gators control their own destiny haha.

Gators can/will beat Wisconsin and Gonzaga. Arizona would be close. If gonzaga beats Arizona then the gators are in the championship game.

As for the other side of the bracket, Louisville has been upset and several others in the top right. Kansas is the clear favorite to get to the final four. In the bottom right which was clearly the strongest region from the start, predictably the top 4 seeds advanced to the sweet 16 unlike the rest of the bracket. 1. UNC v #4 butler and #2 Kentucky v #3 ucla. Really it's #1 UNC v #3 Butler and #2 Kentucky v #2 ucla.

I was out of town because of a death in the family

The SEC has 3 teams in the sweet 16, but I could see all of them go down in their next game. I am hopeful that they will continue to advance, but either way, the SEC has put up a good showing for a conference the does not get much respect in basketball.

Yeah the SEC is looking decent. Especially South Carolina which is more surprising compared to Kentucky or Florida.

The planets keep aligning for gonzaga to have the easiest route ever to the final four.

Kentucky and ucla are both good but neither can survive unc and Kansas back to back. South Carolina, Florida, gonzaga, and Xavier.... I don't know.

I agree that SC is playing the best out of the SEC teams.

I hope UK knocks off UCLA so we can stop hearing the Lavar Ball talk about how great his son is.

I hope the gators pull it off against Wisco. I'm calling it a night for tonight...

FLA/Wisc game was crazy - Wisc hits a 3 with 2 seconds left to send it to OT then FLA is down 2 and hits a 3 to win as time ran out in OT

Kentucky sent UCLA home

FLA will play SC next, they split their games this year with each team winning at home. They are evenly matched, but SC is playing very well right now. I would give the edge to SC.

UK will play UNC, UNC has more talent as a team and is a deeper team. I would give UNC to edge in this game.

While I am surprised with how well Wisconsin played this season and just past game, it's always fun for me to see Wisconsin sports teams lose.

SC is both the most surprising and the most dominant team on the left side of the bracket. Florida, SC, and gonzaga are probably comparable in skill. Gonzaga being overrated and the lesser of these teams probably, and SC being on fire right now.

UNC and Kansas both look very good. Kentucky is a good team, but they play rushed basketball. Which is ok as long as the ball is going through the hoop but it means that Kentucky's consistency isn't as solid as other teams. If unc or Kansas has an off game and fox or monk are having one of their best games ever Kentucky can win.

Xavier has a chance against gonzaga but I don't think Oregon can beat Kansas.

Look closely at the attachment below.

I missed out on 8 grand from missing the spread by .5 points. And 2 inches farther back and UNC's game winning shot would've been a 3. Holy shit, I've never barely missed a big payout quite like that.

I finally got that wager I've been looking for(a reminder to all that I only deposit 100-200 dollars at the start of the season, work my way up, and only gamble with my profits). This is awesome. I won more bets than what is shown, not quite running naked through the streets worthy but I did the best I've ever done.

The zags are facing North Carolina.
