2014 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship: Who Would've Thunk It?
The tournament is down to two teams... and everyone is pissed! The favorite Final Four of many people's brackets: Louisville, Arizona, Florida, and Michigan State. They were the favorite teams by many who filled out brackets to be one of the teams to win the national championship this year. So what happened? They all LOST! That's right! None of four teams previously named are in the national title game. Only one of the four teams, Florida University, made it to the Final Four only to find themselves being upset by one of two teams that gave them a loss in the regular season: Connecticut. Yeah, that's right. A No. 7 seed team that some picked to maybe make it to the second round of the tournament, has almost made it to the peak of the mountain called the National title game. And who are they about to play you might ask? Kentucky! A No. 8 seed team that has beaten the No. 1 seed and undefeated Wichita State Shockers, No. 4 seed Louisville Cardinals, and beat two No. 2 seeds in the Michigan Wolverines and the Wisconsin Badgers. Yes, this year's bracket just kept getting worse and worse as he weeks continued to progress. And honestly, it just seems fitting that these two teams would meet up in the NCAA national championship game. I just wish I had known that somehow this would happen. But surprisingly, there is a handful of people that I have seen on ESPN.com's bracket challenge leaderboard that have actually picked this matchup to occur between UConn Huskies and Kentucky Wildcats. I know what you might be thinking: WHAT??!! Seriously??!! Yes, it is true, and no I do not think they can see into the future. Hell, even fortune tellers could not have predicted this kind of stuff to happen this tournament season. But it was quite spooky when I saw that Kentucky's star forward Julius Randle had wrote on his twitter that he hoped to play and win a championship in his home state two years ago. Two years later, he is on the grand stage and about to get after it. Ladies and gentlemen: It's GAME TIME!
