WITHOUT Claws
PLEASE beat Loyola!!! I don't want another Butler type story. I would really like to see a final four sometime in my life! You can't dream up brackets this open! Please take advantage!!GO CATS!!!
Congrats EMAW Nation. This is bittersweet. Elite 8 and very possible Final 4. You may have just secured Bruth for another 10+ years. God help you.
in the end, EMAW will always win.

Beating 8, 16, 5, 11, 9, 11 to win a national championship would be the most amazing thing that has ever happened in sports.

How else would you determine it?

If anything the tournament is pretty compelling proof that no matter how much you like ranking/ordering teams, there is just not that much separation between them. Say Virginia demolishes UMBC and then has their UMBC-type performance against KSU. Why would that suddenly make our road to the E8 that much more impressive?
