March Madness

I have them losing to Arizona in the next round.

I have them losing to Arizona in the next round.

@Local Hero won't be happy if Arizona wins tonight.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

man, I really hope no one picked Illinois to beat Kentucky. Illinois is playing bad basketball right now.

replays need to be faster...

 

[Fool's Requiem]

dude, did Illinois seriously take a time out?! the game is fucking over...

 

[Local Hero]

Olé Miss off to a strong start.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

 

[Fool's Requiem]

now, if Michigan St could stop suckin' ass, that'd be great

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Looks like I picked the wrong team to beat Iowa St in the first weekend...

 

[dimmerwit]

My maximum possible score is 750. Nobody else is below 1110.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

If one wanted, they could try to purposely get the worst possible score. That could be fun. You'd only need get the first round. 32 games.

Oregon down 6 at halftime. I'm about to flip a table

it's not over yet

Maryland was losing by 12 at some point and still won their game.

 

[A Baby Maker]

Yeah but where's the fun in it if the choices I made are wrong in favor of the ones local made?

If the results hold I'll have 13 of 16 sweet sixteen picks correct. That's cool.

Right now my final 4 is still in tact, and 6 of 8 elite 8 teams...so hopefully these results hold.

Also 6 is a funny way to spell 4.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

As long as Michigan State wins, all my Elite Eight remain.

[Fool's Requiem]

Ok, MSU has pretty much won. Need Arizona to hold on to keep 12 of 16.

 

[A Baby Maker]

MSU has gotten most of their points from their bench. That's pretty odd, and also explains why they were down early. Good sign of depth though.

That's ballsy.

Definitely. I'm going to need that depth for them to get to the final 4. They're the only non-one seed I have in the Final Four.

Auburn is gonna be tough.

I have MSU winning it all this year so...

 

[Fool's Requiem]

I have MSU winning it all this year so...

So, I want them to lose at some point.

 

[A Baby Maker]

Actually in the bracket I'm using for this group I have 0 1 seeds in the final 4. Two 2s, one 3, and one 4.

That was probably not the best choice. Didn't realize I did that on this one. My other brackets I have at least 2 one seeds in the final 4.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

should get fun down the stretch. I'll have a much better than this year than I did last year. My Elite Eight was absolutely destroyed by the end of the first two rounds last year.

Fucking Kentucky...

 

[Local Hero]

My final for has a 1st, 2nd, 2rd, and 5th seeds

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Last year, 11 seed NC State made it to the Final Four. Shows just how much random shit can occur.

 

[Local Hero]

Bamba more like Bomba

 

[Local Hero]

 

[A Baby Maker]

Oh good.

 

[Fire Queen]

chalk seems to be the dominant force this year. all the 1 seeds still kicking, three out of four 2 seeds (lol at the johnnies), two three seeds, and three four seeds. only one double digit seed made the sweet 16 and they're a 10 seed coached by john calipari.

my hunch was that we were going to see the first final four with all 1 seeds since 2008, and thus far we seem to be hurtling towards that conclusion

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Arkansas might be a dangerous team going into next weekend. They should be getting their best player back.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

I getting frustrated with jumping in the sand in Super Metroid and completely forgot there were games today.

Alabama seems to be doing well. Florida has committed 10 turnovers so far and yet they're still leading.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Bama can't stop fouling...

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Discombobulate.

I stopped watching so I could watch the hockey tournament and thought this meant BYU was back in the game. They are not.

Now to the important game: UMass hockey.

they were for like 5 seconds.

The Florida-MD game is leaning heavily toward Florida, too. I'll let you know if it gets close.

Edit: I don't think MD is coming back. Florida stopped turning the ball over in every other possession.

 

[Local Hero]

Those mormons got soaked

 

[Fool's Requiem]

i hate Arkansas...

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Holy fuck, I checked to see the outcome and Texas Tech came back and tied the game! They're going into OT!

 

[Fool's Requiem]

gimme my points

tech won in OT!

 

[Nae'blis]

Yay, I also have points!

 

[A Baby Maker]

UMass also stormed back to win in overtime.

shortkut is the only one of us that has Ole Miss over MSU.

Got a couple people who picked Kentucky over Tennessee, but most of us picked MSU and Tenn to win these two games.
