	I would not be too overconfident UCLA(pac-10). Washington State just got destroyed by North Carolina. Wazzu played u guys pretty tough both games. Doesn't seem UCLA, or the pac-10, should feel all that comfortable with what has transpired in the tourney so far. Half of your representatives were ousted in the 1st round and UCLA and Stanford were very lucky to have gotten out of the 2nd round. The Cougars looked better than anyone until they ran into North Carolina. If the Tar Heels and Bruins make it that far, I would have to favor North Carolina.

	yayadia, you must not understand basketball. This deep in the NCAA's the games are always close. I am a Xavier fan so i will sound biased. I honestly think that Xavier matches up well against UCLA. And i believe X will pull off the Improbable (not impossible) with a score of 67-64. X's stifling defense and three point shooting will be the difference. Duncan can shut down love and we all know burrell will shut down anyone he guards. GO MUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

	Xavier always has no chance according to people that don't see them play very often. I heard almost every analyist pick W. VA last night before the game. Then after the game they all predicted a UCLA win over Xavier. Digger even went as far as saying the reason X would lose is because of free throw shooting. If he did his homework or if any of you doubters knew much about Xavier, comments like that would never be spoken. Xavier is one of the top free throe shooting teams in the nation. They also have basically 6 guys averaging double figures in scoring with only 4 of them being starters. They're deep and hard to defend against. They play a tenacious defense and UCLA will have its hands full. To say Xavier has no chance is showing your ignorance. They may not win the game, but they wouldn't surprise anyone that knows anything about basketball if they did. They're a 3 seed for a reason. They're one of the remaining 8 teams for a reason. Ask Tennessee what they think about 3 seeds. West Virginia has no chance but Xavier could and might win it all. That's why they play the games.

	You sound exactly like that yutz, Dick Vitale. UCLA has been playing the way Connecticut played 2 years ago. Remember how easy it was supposed to be for COnnecticut to win the whole thing? Well, they played sloppy the whole way through . They should've lost to Washington. Then, when they played George Mason, the sloppy play bit them in the butt. This is what I feel will exactly happen to UCLA.

	You are probably right. Xavier is a better team than UCLA but there is no way that the refs are going to let them win. I know that if the games that my team was winning were all fixed I wouldn't be talking a lot of smack.
