NCAA tournament

The next move by the selection committee to "right this wrong" - no more auto bids. Nothing but BCS schools.

[Aargh]

I've opened a substantial lead over my section of the floor because every other bracket I've seen around me has ND in the S16. So far I've only missed Murry St. At least I've got Vandy losing to Butler to save that section of the bracket. How did Vandy get mixed up with all the "mid majors" in that section of the bracket. Not fair to Vandy.

This St. Mary's vs. Richmond game was the hardest for my brackets. In two brackets, I picked each one once, but in both had the winner going to the Sweet 16.

[Aargh]

I thought the entire South bracket was pretty tough. aTm and USU was a problem. I really wanted USU as the 12 seed that knocks off a 5, which seems to happen many years. Kenpom gives USU a 20 and aTm a 23. Sagarin gives aTm 3 points over USU. 3 Sagarin points in this tourney was too much to ignore, so I eventually went with aTm.

I've got St. Mary's over Richmond. If St. Mary's hold on to their 12 point lead with 8 minutes to go, that will give me 2 of the 3 upsets for the day.

I had Richmond in the S16. Their impending loss will wipe out my Murray St. gain.

[Awesome Sauce Malone]

I had a hard time with UTEP and Butler.

I did have Butler going faaaaaaaaaar. But then I said hell nah and changed it quick.

They may end up losing today

Congrats to Baylor on their first tourney win since 1950....? Can that be right?

Tough game for UNI but they pull it out with the heroics of Farokhmanesh.

UNI vs. KU (most likely) on Saturday.

Ohio destroying Georgetown. Tell me again why being in the top half of the Big East should automatically earn you a bid?

Good win for the Valley. How about Ohio beating Georgetown by 14? The Big East has looked awfully shaky so far this tournament.

Villanova :lol:
Georgetown :lol:

How does the Big East deserve 8 or 9 bids every year?

Notre Dame lost

Marquette is struggling with Washington

[AndShock]

I'm sure all the Big East teams are just tired from beating each other up. :roll:

[shocky]

Glad to see MVC win a game in the Tourney after three strait one and done appearances. I think things could get ugly for the Panthers when they meet the chickens. I still be rooting for them anyway. :good:

[ShockerPrez]

It was kind of nice to see UNI take one out on cool cat.

So when are we going to hear the arguments about how the Big East got too many teams in?
