College Basketball Tourney - What's cooking these next 3 weeks and Who makes the Final Weekend?

I planned accordingly for the first time in a long time, and have the first 4 days of the tournament off. My favorite rounds by far. Should be a good one. Wide open through my eyes. 

So what does your Final 4 look like and who wins this thing? 

And show a few of your game day cooks along the way.

    I used (key word) to really pay attention to college basketball and did so from the 60's thru 2019.  Gotta admit that the 2020 covid shutdown wiped out most of my interest.  I may have watched the total equivalent of 3 college games this entire season.
     I will follow the outcomes and that will drive whether I turn on a specific game-more to have it available as background then to watch.  Once we get to next week's game that may change.

    I get it Cap. I'm certainly not glued to the tv all season. But definitely keep up with the State schools. The early round upsets still bring me back to this thing each year though. 

    I ended up with: Arizona, Marq, Texas, and Kansas
    With Kansas beating Marq

    Wings for Day 1 later on.

    Daughter is a UH alum so I’m pulling for them (also helps Final 4 is in Houston).    Think Bama will make a good showing as well.  

    For the first time in a very long time my squad is not in the mix-it’s maddening.  

    I doubt I watch much until it gets to the nitty gritty.

    A bonus during the tournament are the commercials; AT&T with Lily and the Spike Lee, Charles Barkley, Samuel L. Jackson and guests.

    As cap would say, PSA. If you have YouTubeTV there is a new multiview feature that lets you watch up to 4 games at once on a single screen and switch between all four quickly. This is only on smart tvs, not mobile or web. It is still in test, so if you don't have it, talk to support and ask for access. I got access today and it is very convenient and handy.

    TN brought the muscle to that game.  Reminded my of old school Big East games.  If the officiating continues to go that way they will be tough to beat.

    I went down that road several years ago.  Some great eye candy.

    In the first two games UConn has been lukewarm in the first half, and on fire in the second half. They are going to have to do better to get past Arkansas.
