LOL... Maybe If they meet up in the Final four. But these match ups aren't equal. Your team has Miami... Mine has Gonzaga. Hard pass.

Jon Jon Jon... You are the Aztecs. And I have a funny feeling... you will be stealing the Tide from me.
I predict a Bama victory but by 4-5 points. 72- 67. The spread is hanging around SDSU +7.5.

As a Californian, you should know that the Aztec moniker and depiction of the barbaric weapons are culturally insensitive and racist. The university would do better if it just adopted the mascot that everyone knows San Diego by and that is the vagina of a whale. This was attempted in 2003 with some jungle cat named after the original wine cooler, Zuma. unfortunately it would not be until 2004 when the truth of how San Diego was discovered was reported on by anchor man Ron Burgundy. As it stands the confused identity of SDSU is in need of a leader to propose a change to a more culturally sensitive non-human mascot. When SDSU takes down the Net next month, a Task Force will put forward a national referendum to adult the vaginal organ of the Pacific Humpback Whale as its representation of this elite state run institution.

Some history on this horrificly racist situation for those who aren’t Woke, taken from the university President’s webpage:

History of the Aztec Identity​

1925​

  • After nearly three decades of unofficial nicknames, including Professors and Wampus Cats, student body votes to adopt the Aztec moniker. The decision to choose the Aztec as a moniker was in conjunction with preliminary plans to move to a new campus and was done in unison with changing the name of the school newspaper to ‘The Aztec’ and featuring a yearbook with prominent Aztec symbols.

1937​

  • SDSU unveiled acclaimed sculptor Donal Hord’s black diorite piece, titled ‘Aztec.’ This highly acclaimed Works Progress Administration-funded sculpture was the centerpiece of campus for many decades.

1941​

  • For the first time, a student portrays an Aztec in a football game skit. The character becomes known as “Monty Montezuma.” Over time, the character’s apparel is adjusted to become more historically accurate.

2000​

  • Associated Students’ University Council passes a resolution, backed by the Native American Student Alliance, that calls for retiring the Aztec moniker and Montezuma mascot because they are racist and culturally insensitive.
  • The University Council puts the issue to a student vote, and students vote to keep the Aztec moniker and mascot.
  • The University Senate, comprised of faculty and staff, votes to retain the moniker while retiring the Montezuma mascot.
  • The Alumni Association board votes to support the moniker and mascot.
  • SDSU President Stephen Weber appoints a task force to make recommendations on the Aztec moniker and Montezuma mascot.

2001​

  • Task force recommends updating logos and symbols to be culturally appropriate and historically accurate; defining Montezuma as an ambassador but not as a mascot; educating the university community on Aztec history and culture; and strengthening programs and events that support indigenous communities.
  • Weber decides that the Monty Montezuma name should be dropped, the costume should be made historically accurate and the character should have a regal bearing.

2002​

  • Ambassador Montezuma debuts to speak on Aztec history and culture at events, but he is poorly received.
  • Alumni form the Aztec Warrior Foundation and unveil an unofficial, more historically accurate Aztec Warrior representation.

2003​

  • Associated Students approves a resolution from the Native American Student Alliance and Movimiento Estudiantil Chicanx de Aztlán to oppose the Aztec Warrior and hold a student referendum to vote on “non-human” mascots.
  • The Aztec Warrior becomes official through a referendum vote of students and alumni.

2010​

  • SDSU debuts Zuma, a jaguar mascot, at football games. The jaguar was retired in 2012.

2014​

  • Queer People of Color Collective back a resolution to abolish the use of “Aztec” and the Aztec Warrior, which is rejected by the Associated Students University Council.

2017​

  • Associated Students University Council rejects a resolution to retire the Aztec moniker and Aztec Warrior.
  • University Senate votes to end human representation of an Aztec and to stop representing the culture with spears or weapons that “connote barbaric representations of the Aztec culture.” The resolution calls for forming a task force to consider the use of the Aztec moniker and education related to the Aztec identity.

2018​

  • February: SDSU President Sally Roush appoints a 17-member Aztec Identity Task Force comprised of students, faculty, staff, alumni and members at large.
  • April 30: The Aztec Identity Task Force recommends to SDSU President Sally Roush that SDSU retain the Aztec moniker; it is divided on the Aztec Warrior. Among other recommendations, the task force suggests the use of a variety of Aztec symbols, providing education on the Aztec culture and supporting indigenous cultures.
  • May 17: SDSU President Sally Roush reports to the University Senate her decisions to continue the use of the Aztec identity. She also establishes a governing authority, chaired by the president, to ensure recognition of and reverence for the Aztec civilization become part of daily life at SDSU.

Weren't the Aztecs the first American Indians who welcomed Gilligan to Plymouth Island?
 
I wish UConn would have won by four and looks terrible doing it, instead of looking like World beaters.😁
 
Looks like Princeton is going to get another point in their game tonight. Spread has moved to +10.5 against Creighton.

UConn looked like champs yesterday pushing Jeff @CigarStone on to the Elite 8
Jason @jacot23 moved in with Florida Altantic if anyone wants to slap themselves for doubting that one go right ahead.
Mike's @StatHaldol wife Christina took care of biz with Kansas State besting Tom Izzo's Spartans
And in a battle for what I believe is going to be the Champion... Aaron @TexasTraveler was victorious with the BULLDOGS of Gonzaga.
No team steals happened so... wah wah wah...



Jeff @CigarStone ... that chicken gif you tried to goat me into wagering with you? Yeah... scroll back.... well it should have been a Eagle my friend. I'm keen to snakes and rats scurrying around. LOL I thought UCLA might have a chance to win but Timmy would need fouls for that... anyway, My Bracket is in the dump. But not this little gig we got going,

You either believe or you don't! I believed, you didn't.

Maybe Uconn and Bama will meet later and you will have some balls.;)
 
A couple line moves...
SDSU back down to 6.5
Princeton up to 10.5
Xavier up 4.5
