Purdue 63, Texas A&M 61 (OT)

Hands down! Great D and an unexpected - at least to the national scene - hero at the end!

    don't forget: xavier v. kansas state (d OT) was pretty darn good. Why pick just one? It's been such a good tournament so far.

      As good as the Kansas St - XAVIER game was last night, gotta go with UNI just for the ramifications of the upset...greatest upset ever IMO

          Absolutely the K-State game!
          But as a Wildcat fan, I must admit to a little love for Northern Iowa!

            Didn't Butler win by beating Syracuse & K State beat Xavier in double OT??

            You have K State beating Butler??

            They haven't played each other  yet!

            Michael- don't you love that 41.2% voted for a game that hasn't been played. LOL. Maybe MSNBC is now in the prediction business.

              We all knew what they meant! KSU game, double overtime, it's obvious.

                psa to all scorers --k state beat Xavier tonite & play Butler on sat . Is this a case of March Madness or early senility?

                  Kansas was the favorite and rated Number One before the tournament and they lost to Northern Iowa???????? This is a major upset. Not as thrilling as a buzzer beater of overtime intensity but more significant, as was Syracuse's loss to Butler.

                    I picked "other". Deff Kansas/N Iowa is the highlight so far. Although, I think the Kentucky/WVU matchup has the potential to be one of the best games in the tourny.

                      Are you trying to confuse us? Butler hasn't played KS yet! Wow, if KS wins in double OT on Sat., you've gt some explaining to do.

                        The only choice is other since the games were actually Kansas State 101, Xavier 95 (double OT), and Butler 63, Syracuse 59.

                          Kentucky, Kentucky, Kentucky. Any game Kentucky plays. How many NCAA teams has gotten as far as they have with 3 freshmen as starters. You may not like Kentucky but you cant deny over the years, Kentcky has been there more than any team in NCAA history.

                            Well, anything to put KU in mourning is a good thing! :) But hands down last night's game KSU-XAVIER in double overtime! (Since the right team came out on top!) GO CATS!

                              Now that you have given me the winner of the K State-Butler double overtime game, give me the score and I will know how to bet my money. You must be the same jerks that wrote columns saying no one could beat Syracuse, the greatest team of this year by all stretch of the imagination, or the column that said almost word for word the same thing about Kansas. I wonder how Sherron Collins will enjoy the K State - Butler game. Or how Wesley Johnson will enjoy going across town in Syracuse watching Kentucky and West Virginia battle it out for a Final Four spot? Sorry Self man and Jim B.... but your teams are just spectators now.
