NCAA Basketball - 65 Teams

[Brtndr4u]

6-5
I'm not doing worth a rip.

[Berzerker]

I'm 8-4, the line - taking the better seed in every game is 9-3

[reismark]

Creighton freaking killed me. I seriously need UW-Milwaukee to get that damned upset now, and for Dayton to COME BACK...

[Guynemer]

I had a hunch the Chips would take out Creighton...

Dammit, always always always go with your first instinct!

[Imran Siddiqui]

I knew perfection couldn't last .

12-1, Creighton was my only wrong pick. I'm doing quite well in this opening round so far. Watch tomorrow I lose every game .

[Ming]

That's how it always seems to work Imran... you walk away from day one going... YEAH BABY... and then you die like a dog on day two I'll worry about how I'm doing after tommorrows games... and looking at how many of my farther running teams lost

Imran:

[H Tower]

only 4 points back

[Berzerker]

C'mon Miss St and Syracuse!

[reismark]

Is it just me... or did I get *no* breaks yesterday whatsoever?

San Diego blows it in the second half. Creighton loses (a loss I'm really kicking myself for since I had Central Michigan winning that game at one point, but the prospect of Creighton toppling Duke was just too tempting). Dayton gets its ass kicked. Weber State falls short. God must love the Irish, because he stole victory from Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Two of my Sweet 16 picks are already gone.

C'mon, NCAA. Do your worst.

The Illini gave me a pretty good scare last night. Western KY showed the value of senior leadership.
Thankfully, superior talent prevailed.

Dee Brown Rocks!!! (No way he'll stay in school 4 years...)

Dee almost blew the game before it started when he changed his hair style. What was he thinking?

[-Jrabbit]

My wife went WAY out of her way to say how much she liked his hair...

[Guynemer]

You guys are toast. This is my year.

Proof? I think this is the first time I've ever escaped the first day without losing a Sweet 16 pick. Zounds, I think it's the first time I've escaped without losing an Elite 8!

Think of this as Michigan's Revenge.


On a separate note... man, did the bracket makers really screw up this year or what? They put nearly all the teams that scream "Cinderella" in the toploaded West--Gonzaga, Central Michigan, Creighton, UW-Milwaukee, Memphis, Western Kentucky... other than that group, you've got Butler, Penn, and Southern Illinois, and that's it.

****ers.
