13 of 16 first day

Need to pick it up some today

[snoopy369]

13 of 16 here as well - that's not all that bad, GT, in the scheme of things. What's more important is how many Sweet 16 teams do you have left... 16 here

[David Floyd]

14/16 correct picks, all of my Sweet 16s are still in

I missed BYU/A&M, and Clemson/Michigan.

[Grandpa Troll]

Yeah, all of my Sweet 16 are still in

Another wonderful day today

Im 17 for 20 right now

[David Floyd]

18/21, but WVU might be in trouble

[snoopy369]

18/21 as well; WVU would be a minor loss to me as I don't have them advancing (still 16/16 regardless of WVU on sweet 16s).

20/24 now, with Dayton winning... congrats to them, btw, impressive win and nice to see a mid-major at-large bid team win a game.

20/24 here...same on congratz to them steppin to the plate

[snoopy369]

Lost a few more, 22/28 now; missed Arizona (which many people called, unfortunately), and USC. Still have all 16 S16 teams left, though Wake is trying hard to put an end to that [though I imagine many people have Wake as S16, and few have Cle. St. or Zona, so that wouldn't be the end of the world]. Still 2 points off the best possible 'best' score.

Two more upsets in my bracket this round, and both look promising; Wis. over FSU and Siena over OSU. Both are keeping it close in the opening half.

[David Floyd]

24/28, correct on both Arizona and USC.

Now let's see if I can get Sienna to beat Ohio St...

[snoopy369]

Get them to? You working the refs on their behalf?

[snoopy369]

Well, on the one hand, Siena just tied it up, and Wisconsin is keeping it close.

On the other hand, Wake Forest was an Elite 8 team pick, and they're going down in flames.

[snoopy369]

DF, I thought you had the refs Obviously you need to give them a bit higher amount next time

[Darsnan]

Well, on the one hand, Siena just tied it up, and Wisconsin is keeping it close.

On the other hand, Wake Forest was an Elite 8 team pick, and they're going down in flames.

Yeah, some good close games to close out the evening.

So, Michingan State: why isn't anyone talking about this team? I've heard so much about the number one seeds as well as some of the number 3 seeds (like Syracuse's supposed fatigue from the Big East tournament), but MSU seems to be completely flying under the radar.
