    14 out of 16... a total of 5 points away from going perfect. Missed LSU and UCLA. My bracket will probably go to hell in a hand basket tomorrow I have got 7 lower seeded teams winning including North Dakota St. over Kansas

    12-4, not a horrible start especially since all my Sweet 16 teams are still in for the moment...

    Why did the Utah State player avoid the defenders on that last shot? Dude, you're down four, your only chance is to hit a three while getting fouled. You've GOT to draw contact!

    There goes my first Sweet Sixteen team. At least OSU pulled out the win...

    15-5 so far, and already an automatic "L" in the next round.

    Much worse than last year.

    The worse thing you can do is pick an Upset team to make a run because if you miss which Cinderella team makes a run then that is two parts of your brackets messed up for sure.

    Which is why I don't understand why I picked Northern Iowa to get to the Sweet 16. :mad:

    same reason the kid for VCU last night settled for a jump shot down by 1 with about 5 seconds to go, instead of taking it to the hoop and trying to get a foul.

    because he's a college kid. :)

    Collison and UCLA played good defense on that final play...

    but yes i told my roommates the way Maynor was getting the calls last night I wouldnt be surprised if he drove in and tried to initiate contact and go to line for the potential winning points.

    needless to say for my school pride and bracket I am glad he didnt.
