Here are all of the SquidCasts sent by katiyana from the lens March Madness 2008:

We have our Final Four - and History is made... - Mon, 31 Mar 2008

All four #1 seeds in the four regions have reached the Final Four, something that has never happened before. Our semi-final games on Saturday will pit North Carolina against Kansas and Memphis against UCLA. This may be the most power-packed Final Four in the tournament's history, so you won't want to miss a single minute of the auction.

The Final will be Monday night - and pit the two winners of Saturday's games against each other.

Thanks for following my lens - only 2 updates left to do

Third Round has just ended - with a Cinderella still dancing - Sat, 29 Mar 2008

The Elite Eight have been decided: Xavier, North Carolina, UCLA, Louisville, Memphis, Kansas, Texas, and the Cinderella of the tournament, #10 seeded Davidson. One of these 8 will be the National Champion for 2008.

My brackets were pretty broken up early on, but my best set has 7/8 correct (how many could have picked Davidson to make it this far?).

The Final Four will be determined this weekend - and I'll update you with the results Sunday.

Second Round has just ended - and more excitement! - Mon, 24 Mar 2008

We have three double-digit seeds in the Third Round, and only 1 region managed to bring their Top 4 seeds through intact! Come check out the latest results, and see what the Sweet 16 Matchups have in store!

The Third Round will be played Thursday and Friday, so our next SquidCast will come Friday night when we're down to the Elite 8!

First Round has just ended - and what excitement!! - Sat, 22 Mar 2008

A total of 8 upsets made the First Round very exciting, including the first time in NCAA history that the four lower seeds at one venue all won their games (must be something in the water in Tampa, FL!). I have updated my lens with the winners and scores from the first round, and set out the second round matchups for you in each region. Only one region brought the Top 8 seeds through the First Round, so there should be lots of excitement in the Second Round which gets underway tomorrow.

Selection Sunday has arrived! - Mon, 17 Mar 2008

ATTENTION ALL MARCH MANIACS!

In case you forgot, today was Selection Sunday for 2008! I have updated my March Madness 2008 lens with all 65 teams that have received invitations, and show you the First Round matchups in each region.

Will the 4 #1 seeds (North Carolina, Memphis, UCLA, and Kansas) all reach the Final Four? It's time to fill out your brackets, make your picks, and track the results of the tournament on my March Madness 2008 lens. Results posted daily once we tip off!
