  1. I had Alabama as one of those teams that inexplicably was considered a lock, despite playing nobody in the non-conference season. They had 3 good home victories against Florida, LSU, and Tennessee, but just one decent road victory (Kentucky), and a bad home loss to Ole Miss, and finished 17-12 overall. Plus they looked horrible in their conference quarters against Kentucky. If we've learned nothing else, don't judge anyone by their conference tournament showing (BC, Cuse, Bama, Iowa...)
  2. I think Alabama is just as good a team, probably better, than Marquette. The Tide got underseeded IMO and that game didn't surprise me at all, I picked it. Cuse was a disappointment (again). The moral for them is never win the Big East tournament again, it's poison.
  3. To be fair, those were the 3 worst teams from the Big East that are finished. Good point. Barring upsets, the record will be 5-3 at the end of today.
  4. Memphis is shooting the lights out!
  5. Fairleigh Dickinson - that was exciting for a little while
  6. I hope WV keeps shooting 3's like this because no one in the Atlanta region can handle that if it's on. Don't look now, but 12 minutes in and Oral Roberts only trails Memphis by 1.
  7. It'll be an ND-Michigan grudge match on Monday night in Ann Arbor. UM has won the last two meetings by a total of five points, so the Irish have revenge on their mind, as well as possibly facing Creighton or Miami in the next round.
  8. When did Joe Herber decide to embrace his German heritage and become JOHANNES? And WV's gray uni's are ugly as hell. Why not have yellow home uni's instead? Mountaineers back on track, lookin good so far :)
  9. Raftery on Gansey: He gets his hand on balls... Don't ever start a sentence with that... WV looking sluggish so far.
  10. Got Gtown, WV, and the 1's in this one. Two of my final four teams in action at the same time...
  11. Bucknell wins too. This is going really well so far :D
  12. This is SWEET for my bracket. Makes WV's road easier and hurts some people that had Iowa going far.
  13. NW STATE WINS!!!!!!!
  14. Wisconsin losing is relatively harmless to my bracket, but come on NW State! :)
  15. Wow - Terrence Dials was just OWNED by Davidson's big guy.
  16. Just OSU among my 2nd-weekend teams playing right now. Bucknell, Sconsin and Iowa are my other picks, but I'll gladly take the hit of an Iowa loss in exchange for making WV's road easier and screwing up some brackets. And for those who were wondering what game is in the Midwest, the Indy affiliates were scheduled to show Davidson-OSU.
  17. Davidson is looking pretty solid so far. Note: Seth Davis plugged Oral Roberts as the best 16 in tournament history.
  18. Barrett is on my list along with DLee and Z as Cubs I just plain like. Really cool of him to try that out even though there's 0 chance of it happening.
  19. What's wrong with that? The college bball thread is over 100 pages. :) Despite my 12-4 record and no Sweet 16 teams lost, I am 6th in the NSBB Facebook pool (damn underdog scoring) and one of 12 people tied for 10th in the NSBB Yahoo group. But the big day is tomorrow, because my 3 Big East Final 4 teams play, including West Virginia, all of whose games I'll be sweating through because, let's face it, these pools are going to be won by whoever gets the other three Final 4 right other than UConn. Strong performances, everyone, and best of luck on Day 2.
  20. Underdogs are 0 for 2 on Hail Mary passes today.
  21. YES!!!!!!
  22. Let's go Hoosiers! Get me through Day 1 without losing a 2nd weekend team...
  23. I feel like SSR, because I'm sick of saying: BC IS NOT IN THE BIG EAST, THEY ARE IN THE ACC Not cool that the Big East is sucking, sort of stomps on my "Big East rules" bandwagon. But the best of the teams (Pitt, UConn, Nova, Gtown) are yet to come.
  24. Come on IU. Cuse looks like they're gonna lose, loss number 3 for me, but still nothing beyond this weekend harmed.
  25. The sad part is that Selig rigged this for us from the start by purposely not putting the US anywhere near Venezuela, DR, or any of the other Latin American teams that are probably beyond our level, then hiring umps that would screw all the American opponents at every opportunity. And our team was still crappy enough to lose.
