March Madness Is Must See Television For Sports Fans

Years ago March Madness was so much different. When you created brackets you knew most №1 seeds had an excellent chance of making the Finals. Now you cannot even make that claim aymore. Even a №16 seed could upset a Top-Ranked team in this tournament.

It has become where almost anyone can win a game in this tournament. Twenty years ago that was a rare thing indeed. This has made March Madness a must see anymore. You never know now who will win or lose a game. This means even the smaller schools have a chance to win some games in the tournament.

Does this mean we will see a smaller school win this tournament soon. I do not forecast that for awhile, but we are getting closer to that point. Players are choosing smaller colleges to play for where before that was taboo. As smaller colleges start getting better players the field will even out even more.

I enjoy the more level playing field in college basketball. March Madness for me now becomes a must watch for every round. Years ago it just wasn’t that way so I’m glad for this closer then ever playing field.

Notre Dame Men's College Basketball Making An Impact In The Big East

Last night the Notre Dame mens basketball team went to Pittsburgh and proved they were no fluke by defeating the No.2 team in the land by a score of 56-51. Notre Dame got 19 points from Ben Hansbrough and 16 points from Carleton Scott. Notre Dame has continued their impressive run so far this season. They have now beat No.2 Pittsburgh, Georgetown, and UConn.

Notre Dame plays tough defense and has some excellent shooters. This team is loaded with seniors and they run their offensive sets very well. The Fighting Irish play exceptional at home and are tough to beat on their home floor. Right now they are playing well and could be a tough matchup when March Madness gets here.
