Sure, University of Kentucky basketball fans are ecstatic right now, but don’t mistake that happiness for satisfaction. They’re already focused on the future – and they’ll do anything to make that future successful for UK basketball. Anything.

For the second night in a row, the odds-on favorite to win the NCAA tournament did so, and this time in dominating fashion. Brittney Griner had another monster game and Baylor defeated Notre Dame 80-61. With this win, Baylor becomes the first college team ever, men’s or women’s, to finish the year 40-0. Just an incredible season for the program. More, including RG3′s reaction, after the jump.

Earlier, we told you about the riots in Lexington following Kentucky’s victory in last night’s national title game. Thankfully, no one was hurt, and a few fantastic photos have emerged from the chaotic scene.

Things didn’t work out quite like I hoped. Here’s what happens when you trust Nick Lachey with your bracket.

As you probably know, last night Kentucky won the national championship, opening up a big lead over Kansas and then withstanding a late rally for a 67-59 win. And you know what happens when a school wins the national championship: the town in which that school is located gets a little crazy.

This year’s juggernaut, the Kentucky Wildcats, fulfilled their destiny and won the national championship, cruising to a 67-59 win over the Kansas Jayhawks. They may be a one-and-done factory, they may be coached by the little-beloved John Calipari, and their victory may signal the end of college basketball as we know it. But they are also a damn good basketball team.

The NCAA was touting next year’s Final Four on the sideline of tonight’s game. Apparently, it will be in the city of “Alanta.” Is that also in Georgia?

Look, he’s vulnerable! The AP Player of the Year has nine rebounds, three blocks, four dimes and (amazingly) no points so far, as well as one messed up contact lens. But that’s not stopping the Wildcats, who are rolling over Kansas right now. Video after the jump.

Note to the NCAA: don’t enlist The Fray for future performances of the national anthem.

Who ya got in tonight’s national championship game? The official Kansas website is taking, yes, Kansas to win it all. How sure are they that their team will pull off the upset? They were selling 2012 Men’s Basketball Champions shirts just a few hours ago, well before the game started and before either team was crowned champion. If Kansas does win, these people will look like geniuses. Otherwise, they will not.
