Woooo Nevada! Only 1 loss in the first round of the South bracket for me, I'll take it.

[soccer10k]

Nevada wins and, for the time being, my bracket is okay.

[Exile on Waveland]

Fazekas fouled out for Nevada. Shouldn't have reached in.

 

Raftery needs to shut up about how they should've called it on Shiloh, it was obviously on him. Even Enberg told him he was full of it.

 

That's Lundquist.

 

Him too.

 

 

Yeah, regardless, Raftery was wrong.

Creighton joins Old Dominion for my two failed Sweet 16 picks. I'm 20/24 in one pool and 19/24 in another.

 

EDIT: Assuming Oregon finishes off Miami

[soccer10k]

Only 3 wrong so far with Notre Dame being my only Sweet 16/Elite 8 pick that has been eliminated.

[Careless]

damn, I got the creighton/nevada game wrong

[Soul]

Somehow Mia-OH scraps back into it by halftime. Shouldn't last though.

[Andy]

:(

 

I hope Oregon beats Winthrop by 150

 

Tory Jackson is nails. He pulled up and hit two triples in the game despite a bad shooting game overall. I love that guy.

 

Brey, never run press with a slow team again.

[Banedon]

Damn, I had Creighton in the Elite 8. At least Wisconsin pulled it out.

 

Hopefully the fact that I'm doing really well in the first round will make up somewhat for Creighton in the next few rounds.

I wouldn't mind seeing Oregon go down. It would definitely hurt a lot of people and I only had them winning this game.

I had them losing in the first round. I was pretty happy to see Miami's 9-0 start. Not so happy to see Oregon's 20-0 run that followed though.

They'd be my first sweet 16 team to lose . sounds good to me.

[Careless]

I picked them to lose in most of my brackets, but keep it up IL

[soccer10k]

Allow me to be the first to say, go Illinois.

[Careless]

ha!

Pruitt picked up 2 fouls before the first media timeout.

 

The Illini just need to survive the first half.

As usual, foul trouble early for the Illini.

[reds44]

RANDLE!!!!!!!

 

14-5 ILLINI RUN!

 

Tech doesn't have a fg the last 9 minutes.

[reds44]

Tech is shooting 23% from the field right now. Illini need to finish the half strong.

Welcome to Illinois basketball. Make the game ugly and drag other teams down to your level...which is why I picked them to win two games in the tournament.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I have Texas in the Sweet 16, but I have no trouble hoping they lose to the Fighting Reggie Theuses(Theii?).

 

Go NMSU

Illinois tried to give them 5 easy points to end the half and momentum, thank God that long 3 didn't go in.

 

29-21 at the half. I'll take it all day. Keep playing strong D in the 2nd half and we are in very good shape.

[Sosa21MVP]

I took a nap and missed the 2nd half of the Oregon-Miami, looks like I missed a great ending!

 

Purdue and Illinois winning, man it would be awesome to see the Big Ten go 6-0 in the first round! :D

[soccer10k]

Arizona needs to pick it up.

Go Big Ten. Which is hard to say with Purdue and Illinois playing, but I really expect the Illini to win. They've played much better as the season progressed.
