I was shocked about the out come of the game between UNC and Kansas. My team was out long time ao but I wanted to see UNC in the final but I guess I wasn't lucky enough. Now I am not sure who will win the champianship. Memphis had some good games and after how kansas played tonight it will be a good game.

Lets see who will come on the top this year. Good luck to all Kansas and memphis fans.

Me too. I'm very dissapointed at the outcome of the game tonight. Sorry folks, I just can't get into the NCAA without an NC team being there. I know Kansas and Memphis are good...but sorry...it just doesn't seem right!

I have to agree this is true, but it was unfortunate when I was pulling for the heels tonight only to have my hubby come in when kansas would make an excellent shot and he would compliment them.............

we had to be in different rooms....

I'm another ABC fan. I was struggling before the game b/c I also hate Memphis and was prepared to pull against Memphis regardless of their opponent. Fortunately, Kansas came through last night and provided wonderful entertainment as they whipped up on the Holes! I must admit I was shocked because I thought UNC was playing so well that they would be untouchable.

I didn't think they'd be untouchable. I figured it was just a matter of time before the cakewalk they had in Raleigh and Charlotte caught up to them. Besides, "Ole' Roy" learned the art of choking from the Master.

I was rooting for Carolina because they were the only team from NC in the Final Four. But I take solace in the words of my 8 year old son. When he heard the Jayhawks had won he said "It's good that Kansas won. Because, Mom there isn't a whole lot else that Kansas has. All they've got is boring plains, no beaches or mountains like NC." Sorry if I've offended any Kansas folks.

Having spent a little time in Kansas, I'd say your son is wise beyond his years!

Like many of you, I was disappointed Saturday night, too -- not so much that UNC lost, but by how poorly they played, especially the first half. It would have been nice to be watching them tonight, but honestly, all four of the teams are winners.

Just wasn't UNC's year to bring it home, evidently.
