Big 10 all the way! On Wisconsin! (Yes, about a chance in hell)

BTW what is that green or red number in the bracket standings? (I think I'm in the top million?) :\

WhiteRat Mar 21st, 2008 04:22 PM

San Diego is up 5 on UConn right now.

Pentegarn Mar 21st, 2008 05:34 PM

Why is it no matter what I pick Gonzaga to do, they ALWAYS do the opposite?

Every year, same freaking story. I pick them to win, they lose, I pick them to lose, they win.

And while we're on the subject, Gonzaga sounds like a pizza sauce ingrediant.

El Blanco Mar 21st, 2008 06:19 PM

I have 6 losses in my bracket right now.

3 in the West Region. I had UConn losing to Duke in the Elite 8.

WhiteRat Mar 21st, 2008 07:09 PM

This game will be right up there with Vermont-Syracuse and Hampton-Iowa State.

Please don't remind me of that debacle. I had Iowa State winning it all that year >:

WhiteRat Mar 21st, 2008 07:47 PM

I had Syracuse going to the Final Four when Vermont beat them...

Am I the only one in this bunch old enough to remember Rollie Mass and a host of hopped up 8th seeded Villanova Wildcats shooting the lights out in the second half to beat Georgetown (and Patrick Ewing) in 1985 for the national title?

Nah, I remember that too.

WhiteRat Mar 21st, 2008 10:08 PM

I was only a year old then, so yes, I do remember.

WhiteRat Mar 22nd, 2008 08:33 PM

C'mon Stanford, you're one of my Final Four teams! Stop fuckin' around and put Marquette into the ground. Thanks.

They're so not looking like a 3 seed right now.

WhiteRat Mar 22nd, 2008 09:05 PM

The Lopez twins are beasts. Up 1 with 1.3 to go in OT.

Colonel Flagg Mar 22nd, 2008 09:08 PM

Even top seeds get a scare. Way to hold it together, Red!

WhiteRat Mar 22nd, 2008 10:55 PM

A&M is leading UCLA by 5 with 16 min left. It seems like everyone I know has UCLA getting to the Final Four or winning the whole thing. The Bruins need to go bye-bye for me to salvage my bracket at work.

Colonel Flagg Mar 22nd, 2008 11:11 PM

Bruins going down would be OK with me - I have them losing in the first round of the sweet 16.

My west region is completely hosed.

Pentegarn Mar 23rd, 2008 08:53 AM

Duke had to lose yesterday, or I would have lost faith in justice throughout the universe.

MSU over Pitt shocked me (and just about everyone else I dare say).

UCLA looked pretty uninspired, I hope this was their one bad game in the tourney.

Today should be pretty interesting.

It makes me feel better that Pitt was only really still in the game because of free throws (I think they made something like 22 free throw shots in the second half). I now wish I didn't bet against my own team, but if we're going to fucking foul like crazy as usual then we're not going to win the next game anyway.

GADZOOKS Mar 23rd, 2008 06:27 PM

If you win the Bracket Bunch I'm mailing your bracket to SPARTY himself >:

Colonel Flagg Mar 23rd, 2008 08:55 PM

On a separate note, I'm not a Tar Heels fan, but 221 points in 2 games? WTF? They're supposed to be a COLLEGE team, not a PRO team. Plus, they still only play 40 minutes a game, right?

I should have picked UNC to go all the way - they look crazy good right now.

WhiteRat Mar 23rd, 2008 09:32 PM

Right now it appears that picking UNC to win it all is about the only thing that I did right.

GADZOOKS Mar 24th, 2008 11:05 AM

georgetown is out, and so am I. shit

Pentegarn Mar 24th, 2008 08:15 PM

Georgetown losing crippled me in both brackets... though I was already crippled much much worse from Vandy, so what does it matter, I suppose :P

WhiteRat Mar 27th, 2008 11:04 PM

Western Kentucky is getting womped on by UCLA. At his point in the tourney, I am rooting for all lower seeds to run the table. If my bracket is going to shit, i'm taking everyone else down with me!

Colonel Flagg Mar 28th, 2008 12:30 AM

Don't look now, WR, but here comes WKU! Too little too late?

EDIT: Yeah, looks like it. UCLA just had too many horses.
