NCAA Tourney
Can't believe there is no thread on this so discuss all tourney stuff here:
First off Pacific knocked out my Panthers ... no suprise really, we played like shit all year.
My brackets got shot to hell with that because, well ... I always tend to pick with my heart.

Already got two wrong. w00t.
Congrats Makeshift. You got the Pacific game AND the UW-Milwaukee games right.
The Iowa game is going to kill a lot of people...

I lost 3 out of the 8 games on all 5 of my prediction sheets ... the good news is that on three of those I didn't have them advancing. My favorite bracket is still looking solid as well ... picked the alabama loss on only one, when I knew I shoulda picked it on them all, SEC is a joke.

I got 3 out of 8 wrong, and I have Alabama as a Sweet 16 team. Still, we are only getting started. ESPN hasn't updated the first round score, but they did update the maximum score one can get, and mine has dropped to 1580 from the original maximum of 1680.

I have Utah State beating Arizona as my upset pick of the tournament.

Lousy wording.
Should be 'from' you, and instead of '3', '4'.
Think it would be better if you put your other entries in other leagues. But doesn't matter, as I'm winning anyway. :razz:

Bogut had a great game: 24 points, 11 rebounds, 4 blocks...and 2 for 3 from three-point land.

Man, i'm 6-2 after the morning/afternoon games, but the two I lost completely messed up my Austin region in my main bracket. I had Niagara in the Sweet Sixteen and Iowa in the Elite Eight.
Oh well. I'm still holding out hope for my second bracket, which I based off of an ESPN College Hoops 2K5 sim. [-o<

I'm starting to regret changing my Utah St. over Arizona pick. I switched it at the last minute because I thought I had too many upsets. #-o

AZ will pull it out, just like Wake will. 2 and 3 seeds just don't lose ... especially not schools like AZ or Wake.

Yup. They're both starting to pull away. If Nevada keeps it's lead and Gonzaga get's it's shit together, i'll be 4-0 in this group.

Spoke too soon. AZ's lead is down to four. I like how Salim Stoudamire is 2-8 from 3 point range.

Arizona had actually choked numerous times in the first round in the past, losing when they were No. 2 and No. 3 seeds.

I think it is safe to say if Utah wins it all Mrs Smoker wins 10,000$

Out of about 500,000 entry's only 12 people managed to get a 9 outa 9 on the first 9 games.

Ha! Very true.
w00t! 4-0 in this group. Here's hoping for an 8-0 for all the evening games.
I've got West Virginia, Texas Tech, Fairleigh Dickinson, and LSU.
Oops. I mean Illinois.

heh, time will tell. I still have a shot at it overall if BC and Louisville can do what I predicted in one bracket ... otherwise no 10G for me

Although I'd do puuuurdy bad in my actual brackets at school, I'd love to see Fairleigh Dickinson win. It'd be funny.
