Question about final four tickets. What's the cheapest legit option? What I have seen is vivid seats, are they legit?

It'll depend on how early you get them. If you're the gambling type, you could wait to see who is in the Final Four and hope teams like Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Michigan State, etc. aren't in it.

As for where to buy them from, I have no idea.

Interesting to note the rapid inversion of fortunes of Oregon's basketball and football programs

Be very wary of anything that isn't stubhub. Stubhub has guarantee. Either use official channels or stubhub.

Josh Hart is off to a stellar start as a member of the defending national champions. The 6-5 swingman from Villanova will begin his senior season on The Associated Press' preseason All-America team. Hart, the Big East's preseason player of the year, received 53 votes from the same 65-member national media panel that selects the weekly Top 25. Grayson Allen of Duke was the top vote-getter with 61, four more than Ivan Rabb of California. Dillon Brooks of Oregon had 30 votes and Monte Morris of Iowa State had 24.

Homer post, but UK is too low.

The season starts on Friday!

 

[rangerssharks414]

Villanova is up 23-2 already...

How is uconn losing

 

[rangerssharks414]

This Arizona/Michigan State game hasn't been well played, but it has been exciting.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Yale beat Washington on the road. Not a good few days for Husky athletics...

 

[Cody Webster]

Nova and Purdue in a battle

Nova and Purdue in a battle

This has been a great game.

Meanwhile, UConn lost again.

 

[John Price]

UConn should not be 0-2.

Kevin Ollie has been pretty subpar since his debut year.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Baylor beat #4 Oregon.

 

[John Price]

Georgetown and Maryland in a good one.

What was the reasoning behind Oregon being rated so absurdly highly? Honest question

Hype from last year. Everyone knows the preseason rankings are useless this early anyway. Maryland looked **** and they started off ranked...same with uconn

 

[Say Hey Kid]

The Pac 12 usually does not do well in the tourney.

Made it to the elite 8 and they returned every single one of their important players.

They were without arguably their best player (Dillon Brooks) last night, but that's still a bad loss for them.

Big 12 should be a race for 2nd place this year. KU's loaded and all 3 of Texas, WVU, and Iowa State are retooling a bit.

Vivid is fully guaranteed. It's a very legit company. I've had a friend work there for 6 years now.

The Gametime app is great too, I've had a lot of success with their customer service. Went to a Hawks game 2 weeks ago - when I walked in they said my ticket had been used. Called them up, and had a new ticket texted to me within 5 minutes.

I'm really liking this years UK team. No huge stars like Towns or Davis from previous years, but just a nice mix of talent all over the roster. (it sounds stupid given we have 3 top ten recruits, but its just the way the season has felt)

This may be Cal's most underrated team since he got here.

Michigan State just won on a screwjob. The timekeeper started the clock while the ball was still airborne and the buzzer went off as the Florida Gulf Coast player got the ball. Absolutely should've replayed the final play, him missing the shot has nothing to do with it as the argument obviously could've been made that the early buzzer threw him off.
