	Clint, being a mizzou fan you must be from around here and should know that Southern Illinois is SIU

	Maybe accept "Miami" for Miami (OH)? Good quiz though

	ahhhh Oklahoma City University, right on the tip of my tongue...

	Great quiz but I'd accept Miami for both the U and Ohio. I was thinking of both when I put it. Anyone else?

	Pogues:	Mar 3rd, 2011 at 19:51 GMT		7 points
	I went so far as to put Miami OH and it didn't trigger. Exactly what do you need to put to get credit for that one?

	i fail, i miss read the title and was wondering why ucla, duke, kansas and syracuse were not going in

	Needs another minute or two, IMO. Otherwise, excellent quiz.

	Texas A&M was too picky. Wouldn't accept A & M or A and M.

	nswigginton:	Mar 3rd, 2011 at 20:15 GMT		6 points
	seriously need to accept 'Miami.' it's the official school name. and another couple minutes.

	If Adam Morrison hadn't have been so soft, Gonzaga wouldn't be on this list.

	There are five A&M's in D1 basketball, why accept A&M for Texas A&M?

	runinraider:	Mar 3rd, 2011 at 21:16 GMT		6 points
	Good point JPO. Nobody would expect "State" to qualify for Ohio State, Michigan State, NC State, etc.

	Sporcle might as well add another one to BYU's total now.

	Ouch! Kinda timely with the BYU thing...

	FYI: Pitt went to one final four in 1941, when the tournament had eight teams. We have not gone back since.

	Oklahoma City... hadn't even thought of them. They're not even in the NCAA anymore. (I do think they're one of the dominant teams in the NAIA, though, so they've got that going for them.)

	Hellpop:	Mar 4th, 2011 at 04:19 GMT		4 points
	I was surprised every time I got an answer right.

	Megawall300:	Mar 4th, 2011 at 11:32 GMT		1 point
	@JPO I guess it wasn't clear, but I didn't mean just A & M. I meant allow "Texas A & M" with spaces around the ampersand or "Texas A and M". It looks like they have added those now.

	Well looks like BYU is headed down the same road after kicking that kid off the team for having consensual sex with one woman.

	SaintsfanJoe:	Mar 4th, 2011 at 15:52 GMT		6 points
	@asdffdsaasdffdsa: He violated the school's honor code, which would be like violating team rules at most other schools. While their rules are different and more restrictive than other schools, it's not like he didn't know it, and sadly, it's not new in ANY sport that a player gets suspended or kicked off the team for violating rules/skipping practice etc. Sadly, he couldn't "keep it in his pants", and it's costing him and his team. Some people think that UNC lost a good chance at the BCS championship this year because of multiple player suspensions.

	As a Mizzou fan for more than 40 years I can't tell how heavy this quiz weighs on my heart. With all the very good teams we have had over the years and not being able to make it over the last hurdle just eats away at you. Maybe this year! (BTW obviously I am a Cubs fan too jaja)

	Very cool quiz. How in the world can somebody forget Oklahoma City University??

	HectorVortac:	Mar 6th, 2011 at 17:53 GMT		5 points
	quite happy just to get 10 right. About to enter Wyoming when I remembered... they won the whole thing! (around 1850 or so).

	good stuff

	BamaGuy:	Mar 7th, 2011 at 13:33 GMT		1 point
	@expat I sympathize. Bama had some really good teams back in the 80s under Wimp Sanderson, and a few years ago they finally made the Elite 8 but fell just short against UConn. I am happy to say though that the program is heading in the right direction now under Anthony Grant. Roll Tide!

	Thanks for the comments, but I have no control over the quiz after Sporcle published it. I didn't put "Miami" as an acceptable answer because there are two Miamis. There are at least four acceptable forms of it that I remember putting in, so it's not that hard. It takes Miami (Ohio), Miami of Ohio, Miami (OH), Miami-Ohio that I know of. Also, Texas A&M, Texas AM and even "Aggies" are acceptable answers. If you're taking the time to type "Texas A and M", you're just overthinking things. I didn't accept "A&M" by itself because there are multiple A&Ms in college basketball. Sure ... most people know what you mean when you say A&M, but it's not that much work to type the word "Texas" at the front of it. Anyway ... I just hope my team (Mizzou) gets off this list someday.

	i guess NOT drinking coffee is bad for basketball skills, huh?

	@BamaGuy, thanks for reminding me of Wimp and his amazing plaid jackets and scowls.

	We can officially now add another to BYU's total.

	brunson:	Mar 29th, 2011 at 09:35 GMT		2 points
	@Swingo Miami University was founded before Florida was even a state, so yes it is fitting for it to be Miami. But it makes me depressed that my two teams (Miami and Boston College) are high on this list.
