Whew. They are Elite 8 for me, don't know if they will make it that far now though. Winner of Nevada vs. Montana will get a tired BC team.
montana won't stand a chance. -yes, from now on i'm going to talk as if all my picks are factual winners-
If I remember correctly, they pulled off an upset last year. I'll have to see if I can find the 411. [edit] Yep! It wasn't much of an upset last year. 8-9 matchup. They beat Pitt.
Whew. I have Boston College in my final 4. Almost ruined my bracket. I got the Oklahoma game correct too, so far so good for me.
I'm sure either 610, 790 or 740 have to carry NCAA games. You can also watch games for free online at http://ncaasports.com/mmod
I'm 3 - 0 so far. As far as the bomb threat thing goes, did anyone ever just think the dog wanted a hot dog?!
boston college with the miracle cover. not that it really matters as i have them covering as part of a never-gonna-happen 8 team parlay, but i like being right any chance i get. i really can't believe they came back after those back to back 3's by webb where he just pulled up off the dribble and drained them. not very good shots, but confidence crushers if they go in. BC is pretty good to fight that off. and what a dunk on that one fast break after the steal to go up 7 in double OT. i can't remember which bracket i have BC in the final 4 in. i wanna say final 4 in one but only sweet 16 in the other 2. considering how many people picked them to go far it might almost be better for me if they had lost. also nice to see ou sucks get handled by an 11 seed.
For sure - Personally, I wanted BC to lose just for the lame-azz tradition of players shaving their heads (most of them - i suspect that Dudley's too macho to shave off his cornrows) and having everyone on the team wear a white headband. When teams take up trite and cliched practices like BC did today, for good luck and/or to become a closer team they deserve an early round exit.
my rule is one bracket per year... ...otherwise, are you really good at choosing games??? or just lucky? if you change all your brackets to having different teams and stuff, then you really don't know anything about any of the games. ..although even with one bracket - a lot of it is luck anyways..
I know! I picked Alabama over Marquette, but them someone on ESPN was raving about Marquette, and so I picked them. Now, they're gonna disappoint me. WTF is up with Nevada?
could this alabama/marquette game be any more boring? lets watch the 2/15 potential upset b/t tenn/winthrop. a. good job by CBS of listening to me. b. i don't think i've ever seen anyone get beat by a backdoor cut worse than that tenn guy. i saw it coming for like a whole second before the pass was even thrown and the guy still hadn't recovered by the time the pass came. it was like he just didn't care or something. c. tennessee seems like the type of team to have a wingate type guy, a guy who can only dunk and if the lower seed can manage to foul him he'll blow the ft's. i bet on tenn to cover since the spread was so low (-7) b/c i didn't think they could actually be this bad. apparently i was wrong.
yeah...but if you look at my bracket - you'll realize that they end up losing. tennessee will lose it's next game (to Wichita St.).
