Nice correction by the color guy and Tim Brando, the buffoon. still doesn't get it. Hansborough passed Redick for all time ACC lead and he tells the color guy he's moving down the list. No, actually I'm not moving down, he passed me awhile ago, JJ is moving down. Brando responds: Yeah, but now they can't fit you on the leaderboard. YOU [expletive] MORON
Well German has had success in the majors, but yes I'd prefer Koskie over him as well. But Koskie can't play SS. So it's probably not a Koskie or German so much as a Koskie or Hoffpauir/Gathright Koskie could probably play SS as well as our current backup SS.
Could you guys stop talking about Northern Iowa looking like [expletive]. You know they're gonna make a run, and NCAAs is the only time I'm superstitous.
Oklahoma losing in the second round isn't too stupid, imo. They have one awesome player, one pretty good player, and a whole lotta nothing. I'm not that high on Michigan, though. I really wanted to pick Oklahoma to lose early. I had them tabbed as a second round loser before the tournament. I just don't trust Michigan or Clemson. I'd say Clemson would be more likely to beat them, but I'm not picking a team that finished the way they did. I also don't like Syracuse, Arizona State or Temple much either. So I'm left with Oklahoma in the Elite Eight -- which I still doubt happens. Oh well. I went with ASU in the Elite Eight. I really like Harden and Pendergraph for some reason. Same here.

Also, if it weren't for their terrible FT%, I'd seriously consider taking Portland State over Xavier. Portland State fits the profile for an out of nowhere Cinderella and Xavier strikes me as a team that can be caught napping. I went ahead and picked PSU. He didn't even rip on UCLA.
:shock: I didn't say I was happy about it. It was based on a.) my non-belief in Memphis and b.) me trying to bid them up to give me a better payoff down the line.
I really have a hard time seeing Minnesota going sweet 16. I've got Michigan losing in the first round, but they have the type of team(nothing but 3s) that could make a run if they get hot.
oh, are they in the tournament? i seem to recall someone predicting that they would be. They won't be for long, I hope. I'm rooting for all Big Ten teams (even Michigan) so that Digger will choke on his highlighter and die a painful death.
