Non-Razorback of course,

Dunk City by a mile.


UNLV with LJ, Augmon, Greg Anthony, etc. They had zero bench though.


Loyola Marymount with Gather and Kimble. Those boys ran it.


I also remember staying up super late as a kid and watching UTEP with Tim Hardaway and Hardaway just sliced and diced this team to embarrassment. Was probably the day I fell in love with the tournament.

UK in '96 won their NCAA Tournament games by an average margin of 21.5 points. Their two closest games were against Camby's UMass squad in the Final Four and Syracuse in the NC. They scored over 120 points in multiple games that season.

I liked the Mutombo/Mourning Georgetown team, but they were probably the most disappointing tourney team I can remember. I stopped pulling for Georgetown after they lost. That was the team that should have lost the 16/1 game to Princeton.

Also the team that lost at the buzzer to LSU in the Superdome. THAT was a game to remember.

My teams:
00 MSU
06 Florida
09 Michigan State (seeing all the people in metro detroit was really cool, just ended short with the NCG vs UNC)

Others:
06 George Mason (I loved Jai Lewis, and I really respected that team)
03 Syracuse (I was a huge Carmelo fan that year)
06 LSU was cool to watch as well, Big Baby and TT

2006 LSU. Dont care if it is a homer pick. That was the most fun I have had watching a tournament.

VCU's first run was pretty great also

Yeah that UConn team won me $1000 in the Gyno tourney challenge, so I'm going with them.

1986 LSU -
1. Beat Purdue in OT (?)
2. Beat Memphis St. @ the buzzer
3. Beat Ga Tech in Atlanta
4. Beat Kentucky and Kenny "Sky" Walker with Blanton playing center. I think Kentucky beat us 3 times that year.

Was that also the Chicken Pox year?

Easy answer 2006 with LSU. But I loved Arizona's run in the 1997 tournament. They beat a great Kansas and Kentucky team.
