NCAA Basketball - 65 Teams

[Adam Smith]

Drew Nicholas gets style points for trotting straight into the locker room after hitting the shot, without even breaking stride.

And huge props to UNCW's Goldsmith who set an NCAA tournament record by going 8/8 on three pointers. Only one of them even hit the rim.

edit: Looks like I have a reasonable chance here, but the other pool I'm in is murder. 20-25 people in the pool and two of them have 31 of 32 games right. They only missed Dayton. Its like this every @#$%^&* year.

WOOOO, Maryland! Great game!

Saves a Final Four pick by me .

[Berzerker]

Damn Imran, you and rabbit went 15-1 today?

[Imran Siddiqui]

I think rabbit only lost 1 or 2... I believe I lost 2 or 3 today (which is why rabbit made up a point on me).

[reismark]

Thank god for Drew Nicholas... If Maryland had lost that game I don't know what I'd do. My luck wasn't this bad even when I had South Carolina to win it all in '97 (and they ended up losing in the first round).

[Guynemer]

Jesus... I didn't go 16-0 yesterday, did I? That can't be right... are we sure those were the accurate end-of-day scores from Thursday.

I know I got at least one wrong yesterday...

[Ming]

Damn Notre Dame...

They shot lights out in the first half and the Illini never recovered. Congrats... I hope they go all the way now and screw other people's brackets

[Imran Siddiqui]

Damn, had Illinois winning that game.

Wasn't ND a #5? Still complaining about the 'low' seed Illinois got, Ming?

[Berzerker]

You're right Guynemer, you jumped 32 points which must mean you went 16-0.

[Guynemer]

But I didn't go 16-0. In a fit of madness and delusion comparable only to people thinking the media is liberal, I picked Oregon over Utah.

I think those standings from the first day are missing a game or two.

[Imran Siddiqui]

They may be. Who knows!

[reismark]

Don't **** this one up, Arizona. If I lose you then any microscopic chance I still have here goes down the tubes.

Don't **** this one up...

[Imran Siddiqui]

Wooo, Wisconsin! Another last second win for me .
