Not likely to be a long visit. Nova should take care of them.

Hellllllll yeah. I picked Marquette to beat you guys even with D-James out but I realized those odds probably wouldn't have been very good. A lot of people in my money pool have Mizzou going to the Elite Eight and some even to the Final Four. Now this looks a little better.

[Butterscup1679666578]

It all seems like posturing to me though. How the hell can he just magically be better.

I believe he'll play, but how much will be the question. I don't see him getting anything over 15-20 minutes. Can a broken bone in your foot heal in a little over a month?

I went 8-0 during saturday games. I made up a lot of ground which I am happy about. If i can do the same thing sunday as I did Saturday Ill be in real good shape to take home some money.

Absolutely shocking news.

[Andy]

If Marquette beats Missouri, who my entire bracket picks rest on making the Final Four at this point, due to James, I'm punching people.

 

Mostly because there's no way in hell I'd have picked Mizzou to get past Marquette with James.

[Exile on Waveland]

nova should beat duke

 

I picked Duke, but after the first two rounds Villanova certainly looks like the smart money.

 

 

I went 8-0, which redeems my average first round performance and shot me way up the leaderboard.

[da bears]

Mizzou just needs to come out strong in the first half and run James all over the floor. I doubt he can last much longer than 20 minutes, so the first half will tell a lot, in my opinion.

[Derwood]

I, too, was 8-0 yesterday, but can only go 7-1 today due to having WF in the Elite8

[Illini Iceman]

For some reason I have a feeling today is going to be crazy with a bunch of upsets.

 

Arizona State knocking off Syracuse in the early game would set the tone nicely.

Yesterday went according to plan. That usually spells upset doom the next day. Not sure who or when, but an upset is coming today. I picked Arizona State and Wisconsin. USC could give Michigan State problems, and Pitt might want to play a little better than they did against ETSU (sure they will -- similar to Memphis). Doubt Siena has much of a chance, and not really sure about Dayton.

[Derwood]

as long as Cleveland State beats Arizona, I don't really care what happens in the rest of the games.

[NonProfitCow]

feels like Syracuse is shooting 100%.

Speaking as someone who's had a few broken bones in all parts of his left foot and is no sort of doctor, yes. I'm reading it's a metatarsal, which is a toe... That would still hurt and sounds like a bad idea.

Dayton over Kansas, please.
