Senior Year here at UCONN- will we get a Final Four?

[wrkclskid]

I am so psyched! About 3 hours left before UCONN plays to go to the Final Four! I am born and raised in the nutmeg state and I have rooted for this team since I was a wee little grasshopper (any one remember Burell cross court to George with 1 second left to beat Clemson? I was 8) and now attend this fine university. I am a proud husky and just felt the need to boast. Alabama is gonna be tough but we should be able to win it. In a couple of hours I shall begin my pre-game ummm..... festivities (I know its early but it's my senior year :beer: )So enjoy the game and don't forget to sing!


UConn Husky,
symbol of might to the foe.
Fight, fight Connecticut, it's victr'y, Let's go
Connecticut U Conn Husky,
victr'y again for the White and Blue
So go, go, go Connecticut,
Connecticut U. Fight!
C-O-N-N-E-C-T-I C-U-T. Connecticut,
Connecticut Husky, Connecticut Husky,
Connecticut C-O-N-N-U. Fight! (repeat)

Ok so it's a dumb song but who cares? I am in a corny school spirited mood :-)

1. You'd better be in the final four

I picked UCONN to WIN the tournament in my pool!

2. Yeah me too

Even though I wasn't entirely sure they were up to it before the tourney began. I am such a homer but I figured why not go for it? They have really stepped it up for the tourney though. Hope we can win you some cash so that a left person really can finish first.

3. I couldn't be more content with my championship game pics

KU 78, UConn 75

I'm so glad I went with my heart and picked KU. UConn was a head pick. My entire final 4 is still intact.

6. Wow great pick.

Definitely a possibility. I'll admit, I had Kentucky going to the final four, guess I have payed the price for my lack of creativity.

4. A buddy of mine is a grad student at UCONN

Odds are you've never heard of him, but his name is Jim Edwards. He's a graduate student and he teaches classes in distance learning education. We served together during the first Gulf war, aboard USS Blue Ridge. Jim was a fellow Navy journalist.

7. Never heard of him

But thank you both for your service to our country. Oddly enough, I was at an Air Force ROTC party last night (my girlfriend was in AIR ROTC before she was diagnosed with a real bad strain of asthma, they still let her take the Air Force history courses cause she is interested, they call her "special student) they didn't have a lot of nice things to say about the Navy, but all in good fun. I salute you.

5. I think so

I hope Alabama pulls the upset, but I don't see it happening. Alabama was totally dominated by the Syracuse big men. There's no way I can see the Tide stopping Okafor.

I might regret this later, but I predict UConn wins by 10 + points.

8. Kick

Kick for the Huskies, I'm off to get ready for the game!
