    thank god Nova came back.. I had them going a few more rounds. I started 8 of 8 before being undone by a dumb upset pick(Min over Texas) but I will take 9 of 10.

    I think I'm the only one that has Syracuse going all the way in this bracket. C'mon Orange. I think they could possibly do it.


    Watch them lose to Stephen F. Austin.

    Sittin in the middle of the pack (46th) so far. 9 of 12, but haven't lost anybody I had going more than a round yet. All in all, could be worse.

    Yeah that run UCLA had before the half hurt VCU but I see them coming back in the second half and making the game interesting. VCU has legitimate players that are tournament tested.

    while albany (or whoever) did have significant lead in the 2nd half against uconn, the closest a 16 has ever come to beating a 1 was princeton against georgetown in the late 80s. i think georgetown won 60-59. i don't remember if princeton got a shot off or turned it over on their last try or what, but that was the closest in terms of time left on the clock a 16 has ever really gotten.

    Man if VCU beats UCLA my whole bracket is ruined.
