9 Thoughts Driving All March Madness Fans... Well, Mad

Rooting for the Zion — er — Duke Blue Devils, are you?

March Madness is hands down the BEST time of the year. Putting together your bracket convinced that this year will be the year that you finally have that perfect bracket just to find out that the odds of that happening are one in 2.4 trillion.

It's still worth the fun of filling out that bracket though, and let's be honest, this year is bound to be just as crazy as any other year, and these thoughts are definitely running through every fan's mind leading up to and after Selection Sunday.

Will we be seeing the Zion Blue Devils or the Duke Blue Devils in the tourney?

Giphy

I get it, Duke is a great team either way, but with Zion they are real contenders for the overall title. Without him, well...they barely beat Wake Forest.

Are the Zags overrated?

Giphy

They're up there in the rankings, but they have one of the easiest conferences. To pick or not to pick the Zags is an ongoing struggle nearly every year.

What is Kansas without Udoka Azubuike?

Giphy

They've had some scary losses this year with Azubuike on the bench with an injury. SCARY LOSSES!

Will Virginia fall in the first round again?

Giphy

Let's be real...no one will ever forget the UMBC upset of 2018.

Who are the sleeper teams this year?

Giphy

My vote is for Temple, but I may be biased as a Temple grad. (For real, though, have you seen Shizz Alston and Quinton Rose play basketball?)

How far will Tacko Fall take UCF?

Giphy

Tacko Fall is 7'6", and he is a huge part of why UCF is a contender this year.

Are the refs going to see what I see?

Giphy

OK, but Mr. Ref, I really need this win for my bracket — please and thanks!

Why is this game tied with 10 seconds left?

Giphy

I can't handle an overtime match. I am not mentally prepared for this.

Why do I even fill out brackets?

Giphy

After like two games, my bracket is busted anyway...

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
