Could this finally be the year a 16 takes down a 1? This is statistically the worst group of 1 seeds ever....

never forget....

Also some really bad #16 seeds.

Survive in overtime. Covered the spread too. Princeton ain't bad.

Gt surprisingly smashed houston.

will have to revise my tulsa elite 8 pick.

1st 60%, 2nd 30%, 3rd 10%


Just opening it up to everyone here.

Eem, it's at 22 brackets right now after just the first half day. Should hit that 45-50 mark.

Hey updating this, we're at 56 brackets currently. Eem is in it with 2 brackets.

Winners projected:
1st- $672
2nd- $336
3rd- $112


I can do PayPal if anyone's interested at all.

64 brackets ($762 to winner) pretty impressive.

reports coming out that Ty Wallace broke his hand, would be a big loss for Cal

SPORTS!

(also Liverpool v. Man United in Footie action)

does anyone think UConn can be upset in the women's side?

Depending, you can play with a broken hand. H's a borderline NBA guy, right? Late second round? If I were him I might risk playing in the NCAA tourney...

If a team can keep it close with them they might lose--they obviously don't play a lot of close games. South Carolina, Maryland, and Notre Dame played competitively with them during the year but still lost by double digits. Notre Dame's beaten them before.

That's awesome, that is an even bigger take than Penn Stater one that I do.

97.5 Midday guys severely underrating Oregon.

They probably haven't seen them play. It's a philly sports station.

good point

I'm an sju fan but they're a severe underdog

pacino wrote:I'm an sju fan but they're a severe underdog

I have Oregon in the FF but I would LOVE to see St. Joes pull that off. That would screw me(and everyone else to equalize it I guess) since I always pick all my brackets the same. It pays off big when you nail it. I won a lot last year. Two of them before the the title game was even played.

best game of the day per KenPom is Arizona-Wichita State. The committee really fucked up the seeding of Arizona/Wichita State. Shame one of those two teams will be out tonight.

Really think Gonzaga-Seton Hall, Yale-Baylor are going to be good ones.
