Welcome back to BracketRacket, your one-stop shop for all your NCAA tournament needs. Today,Buy duvetica jackets aliaoutlet outlet duvetica down jackets sale 2014, an injury to Louisville guard Kevin Ware dominates social networks, we flash back to 1965 and work our way to 2012 to revisit the remaining teams' last Final Four appearances, and see what kind of payday you could have shipped had you bet on the other Louisville on Sunday. But first, let's look at your Final Four and the chances they'll keep their win streaks alive. CARDS STILL THE FAVORITE The Final Four catchy name for a quartet of teams who just won a quarterfinal. Not that surviving the opening rounds of the NCAA tournament isn't a worthy accomplishment (ask Gonzaga,デュベチカ 通販, Kansas, Indiana or any of the other teams who were "supposed" to make it this far). Las Vegas casinos still have Louisville as the favorite to win it all. Casinos see the other semifinal as a tighter contest, with Michigan favored by 2 points over Syracuse, Bell said. If you think that means a Louisville-Michigan final is most likely, fine, but don't forget all the unexpected turns this tournament has taken. Wichita State started the tournament Advertisement
at 300-1 odds to win the title,デュベチカ 通販, while Michigan was 20-1 and Syracuse was 35-1. FLASHBACKS Each team in the Final Four has been there before, some more recently than others. Here's a quick chronological look at the last time each school made it this far and how things played out. 1965, Wichita State: The Shockers went 21-9 in the 1964-1965 season, winning the Missouri Valley conference and making their first ever Final Four. Then they ran into UCLA and the Wizard of Westwood. Wichita State lost big to the Bruins, who went on to win their second national title under coach John Wooden. The next night, Wichita State was blown out even worse by Princeton, 118-82, in a third-place game. 1993, Michigan: Michigan's last trip to the Final Four featured the Fab Five,Buy Roger Vivier Designer Shoes & Heels Online, college basketball's biggest rock stars at the time. With Chris Webber, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard, Ray Jackson and Jimmy King,Duvetica Down Coats, the Wolverines beat Kentucky in the national semifinals, then lost 77-71 to North Carolina in the final. The national title game was made even more famous by Webber calling a timeout Michigan didn't have with 20 seconds to play,デュベチカ専売店, sparking a technical foul that led to four straight free throws for Carolina's Donald Williams. "If I'd have known we didn't have any timeouts left,ダウンジャケットレディース, I wouldn't have called a timeout," Webber said after the game. 2003, Syracuse: NBA star Carmelo Anthony was a freshman along with Orange star Gerry McNamara, and third-seeded Syracuse won its first championship in school history. Syracuse beat Texas 95-84 in the semifinals before beating Kansas 81-78 in the national title game. For Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim, the win in New Orleans redeemed a loss 16 years earlier to Indiana in the national championship in the same city. "Honestly, it was better than if we won someplace else,モンクレール," Boeheim said in 2012. 2012, Louisville: Last year,デュベティカアウトレット, Kentucky was fairly unstoppable on its run to the title and beat in-state rival Louisville 69-61 in the Final Four. But it was unlikely for Louisville to even be there given three season-ending knee injuries,デュベティカアウトレット, several concussions and a run of eight players who missed at least one game in a wacky year. The Cardinals got into the tournament by winning four games in four days to take the Big East tournament title. The run helped erase bad memories from first-round losses in the NCAA tournament in 2010 and 2011. "I told the guys . 'I'm celebrating a season where we worked around the clock, around injuries and everything else. If you guys don't celebrate and have good, clean fun, you're fools.'" Louisville coach Rick Pitino said after the loss to Kentucky. WARE INJURY After a grisly injury to Cardinals guard Kevin Ware,デュベティカアウトレット, the outcome of Louisville-Duke took a significant back seat on social networks to thoughts about Ware and reaction to the play. Ware broke his right leg with less than 7 minutes left in the first half after trying to contest a 3-pointer by Tyler Thornton. The leg buckled when he landed, bending at nearly a right angle. On Twitter and Reddit, the reaction was swift, wide reaching and prolonged. Twitter hashtags "PrayforWare" and "KevinWare" were still trending worldwide nearly three hours after the play, well after Louisville won the game and secured a Final Four appearance. On Reddit, one of a handful of posts about the play hit the popular site's front page. Sentiments for Ware came from all over the sports and entertainment world. Simultaneously, everyday fans compared the incident with other famous sports injuries and traded less-gruesome ways to share the news, including pictures and video of emotional reactions from players and coaches. Joe Theismann, the former Washington Redskins quarterback,http://duveticaaustraliaoutlet.halod.com/, immediately reminded Twitter users of the 1985 injury on Monday Night Football that ended his career. "Watching Duke/ Louisville my heart goes out to Kevin Ware," Theismann tweeted. Sports network ESPN sent a message from its (at)ESPN Twitter account that was retweeted more than 17,000 times in less than 30 minutes: "Our thoughts go out to Louisville's Kevin Ware. Hate to see that happen to any athlete. Here's to a speedy recovery." MELO PROPS Syracuse's wins have been good for the guy who last brought the school a national title York Knicks star Carmelo Anthony. And it's more than just bragging rights: He's making doubters pay up. His Orange already knocked out teammate Jason Kidd (Cal) and coach Mike Woodson (Indiana). "I'm going down the line. I'm going down the line," he said Sunday night. (Smith) is rooting for Louisville, he didn't even go to school. So I mean, he might be next." Smith's brother,ダウンジャケットレディース, Chris, played at Louisville. That's if Syracuse beats Michigan first. "They're playing very well right now,デュベティカアウトレット, so we'll see what happens. We're playing very well,Roger Vivier Flats Cheap Roger Vivier Outlet Shop Discount Roger, too," he said. BAYLOR SHOCKER The biggest weekend shocker in basketball: Louisville knocking off Baylor in the women's tournament. Baylor,デュベティカ 激安, led by the top player in the women's game, Brittney Griner, was largely considered the most dangerous team in the tournament this year. After the loss, Griner squatted and pressed her forehead against her folded hands. Next to her, guard Odyssey Sims lay on the floor with her legs and green sneakers in the air and hands covering her face. Safe to say they were surprised with good reason. Baylor was a 24-point favorite to win the game. If you wanted to win $100 on Baylor to win straight up,デュベティカダウンジャケット, you had to wager $20,000, Bell said. On the flip side,デュベチカ専売店, Louisville was a 75-1 underdog to win. STAT OF THE DAY It took an amazing comeback by the Michigan Wolverines to defeat Kansas in overtime in Friday's South Regional Final. But there was no such drama on Sunday,duvetica down jackets sale, as Michigan downed Florida 79-59 and Louisville beat Duke 85-63. The two games marked the first time that regional finals were decided by 20 or more points since 1999, when Duke defeated Temple 85-64. AND A BONUS STAT Duke's record in regional finals after Sunday's 85-63 loss: 11-2. The last time the Blue Devils reached the regional finals and failed to advance to the Final Four was in 1998. Their opponent, Kentucky, went on to win the national title. QUOTE OF THE DAY "All he kept saying remember,ダウンジャケットメンズ, the bone's 6 inches out of his leg all he's yelling: 'Win the game. Win the game.' I've not seen that in my life." coach Rick Pitino speaking about injured guard Kevin Ware in a postgame interview with CBS after his team defeated Duke.
