Virginia is really looking good. Too bad for them they got the #4 seed instead of a 3

 

Alot of people thought they were overseeded at 4 to begin with. This isnt coming from me, just what ive read and heard.

Yeah, Virginia at 4, considering how they ended the season and the fact that they didn't have a fantastic resume to begin with, was pretty ridiculous. In fact, VT and Duke at 5 and 6 was wacky too.

 

GT needs to keep storming back - I have them in the 16.

 

I too have them in one of my pools. good coach.

 

Good coach? Wow. I have Georgia Tech in the sweet sixteen, too, but only because of athleticism/talent. If you're waiting for them to win on coaching, you'll be waiting a long while.

 

They did go to the finals with a marginally talented team a couple years ago. He deserves some credit for that. Of course you could throw the IU coach at me too (his name escapes me). Anyway i thought that GT team was well coached.

 

Mike Davis. Dusty Baker nearly took the Cubs to the World Series, was he a good coach?

 

I'd also consider that Georgia Tech team more than marginally talented, BJ Elder was good and Jarrett Jack has been a good NBA player so far. Besides, they got blown out the first time they played a team with superior talent. They also didn't play a higher seeded team until the final four and Oklahoma State -- which was very nice victory. It was a nice run, of course.

 

PS Are you watching the end of their game now? Look like a well coached team?

 

Yes and no. They need to go to the Izzo school of rebounding. I forgot about the easy round Tech had going into that finals...where were you when i filled out my bracket.

 

Hey, I had GT winning two the same as you, shows what I know.

that was one of the best 10 second rebounds ever by winthrop

Ugly stuff. I'm no Notre Dame fan, but Falls was mugged on that drive.

Yeah, I couldn't believe they didn't call that - the foul on Falls I mean.

[Careless]

wow, huge swing there

[soccer10k]

Not a good end to the half for Notre Dame.

[cubweiser03]

WINthrop by 4 at half.

[cubweiser03]

Vols rolling. I dont care for Bruce Pearl very much.

[Z38Cubs]

Long Beach St. has a guard who's about 260 pounds, and has a beautiful shot. They're also creeping back into this game, but I still don't feel too good about putting them in the Sweet 16.

[Careless]

Wisconsin down 7-0.

heh

10 nothing :lol:

There's a reason I have them going out in the second round in 2 of my 3 brackets

10 nothing :lol:

 

That's a game I'm going to be watching very closely-I think there's a small but reasonable shot at an upset there.

[treebird]

i think al pacino delivered the pregame speech for corpus christi. they've got a little energy so far.

[cubweiser03]

SOB wisky is down early.

 

At first when i saw the seedings i thought this was a community college....hahha

I do too. Definitely wouldn't mind a first round upset there.

Agreed. Wisconsin is slumping and Texas A&M-CC is very athletic. That said, I'd still be very, very surprised if Wisconsin loses.

I have them as my Champ, but I would be willing to see my whole bracket busted to see Texas A&M CC beat them in the first round. That would be excellent.

[Careless]

ye gods, does wisconsin look terrible. nice pass into the rim

this might kill my mother

[cubweiser03]

damn it wisconsin play better!

you are a solid tournament program.

[Banedon]

And Wisconsin scores! :P

Hey Nevada, get the ball to Nick Fazekas please.

[Chocolate Milk]

Wisconsin has trouble putting the ball in the hoop.

[Sosa21MVP]

Wisconsin is getting ripped right now. :shock:

[soccer10k]

Ugh, Notre Dame down 11.

[cubweiser03]

Listen to the rim at the Wiscy game, its broke or has like all its screws loose.
