    Pitt's circling the drain. There goes my undefeated streak, which lasted all of 4 hours. :lol:

    That was awesome - I tuned in just in time to catch the last minute. I thought Marquette was finished after Davidson went up by 5.

    I guess Hahvud is the talk of the tourney right now. That was the worst loss I took yesterday.

    I was glad to see my Rams back on their game last night. They need to continue that on Saturday - Tim Hardaway, Jr. was lights out for Michigan last night. :omg:

    The big game at our house today is my wife's alma mater Ole Miss up against Wisconsin. I like that match-up.

    New Mexico is dead to me now...

    - - - Updated - - -

    Even though Harvard is done next round, that was a HUGE win...

    LOL

    Everyone who bought into the New Mexico hype got burned. I got scorched a bit, myself.

    Sure was - I don't think I've looked twice at an Ivy League school since Pete Carril was coaching at Princeton, and that was eons ago.

    I see it's show time for your boys at 12:15. Maybe Albany will keep it close for 3 minutes...

    Wow - A big congrats to the Harvard Crimson! I was a year early in predicting their 1st Tourney win, having picked them last year to go to the sweet 16.
    11-5 today, making it 13-7 overall.
    Today I'm going with(definitely too much heart involved in some of these picks):
    Duke, Creighton, Georgetown, Oklahoma, Indiana, Temple, Ohio St., Notre Dame, Kansas, North Carolina, Mississippi, Kansas St., Florida, UCLA, Miami & Illinois.

    I wouldn't count on Harvard being one & done. Arizona isn't known as a very consistent group, but they'll be favored.

    Let's go Rebels!

    It hasn't been too bad...

    Curry, Plumlee, & Cook have done really well so far...

    And, I kinda figured Ole Miss & Wisconsin might be like that...

    Ole Miss is scoring at will inside. Wisconsin's gonna get killed if they don't fix that.

    I see Albany is keeping the score respectable. I may have to pop over there for a few minutes...

    Yeah, we let off the gas for some reason...

    I'm expecting an explosive second half though, which is common for us...

    You've got a nice cushion to build on.

    Albany needs to do something about those shoes and socks, too...:omg:

    Congrats, E.

    This Ole Miss - Wisconsin fiasco is about to meet a merciful end. Stick a fork in the Badgers...

    That was some seriously ugly basketball, but I'm just glad to see Ole Miss move on.
    Add Wisconsin to the list of sucker bets, along with New Mexico & Pittsburgh.

    Don't feel bad, arjay - I blew all three of those games, too.

    I thought of you last night when Davidson was seconds away from upsetting Marquette. Obviously, that pick wasn't as crazy as I first thought...

    EDIT: On second thought, State is still hangin in there...

    I took the Wolfpack, too. :roll:

    I wouldn't touch Temple because they've been so wildly inconsistent, but Khalif Wyatt's a heckuva player (A-10 POY)...

    If my 'Cats can't get into the 16 having to beat only Belmont and Harvard, we got a problem down here in Tucson.

    No connection with the computer last night, so here I am getting up earlier than I want to may my picks...like it matters.
    For today at least, it's about who I want to win. I'll be screaming at the TV for: VCU, Memphis, Harvard, California, Colorado St., Butler & not sure yet on Gonzaga/Wichita & Oregon/St.Louis.

    Whatever.I didn't even know a SPORTS thread existed.

    Because it wouldn't matter.My Cards rule the roost.
    Stomped another NCAA Bracket opponent.
    Funny in a way.Last year the Cats { Kentucky Wildcats } won it
    all and most the players fled for greener pasture { NBA } and this year
    they failed to make the March Madness cut.
    This Year it's the Louisville Cardinals all the way BAABy .
    OK Dick Vitale ... I'll take yer word fir it.
    Cardinals are Fast,really fast,Great Defenders and can mix it up
    with steals and scoring.As The Colorado State Rams found out.

    I don't think Louisville is going to get by Oregon. Every school east of the Mountain West looks like they're playing with refrigerators on their backs.
