March Madness

[Nae'blis]

Oh yeah... fuck Auburn then!

 

[Fire Queen]

The Final Four being all #1 seeds is so lame.

i think it rules actually and am not biased at all

 

[Fire Queen]

so there are four of us who still have a mathematical chance to win it all and each of the four of us has a different champion

i need houston to win it all

bigdaddy needs auburn

fool needs florida

quagmire needs duke to win AND florida to make the championship game, otherwise bigdaddy wins

even if the bracket ended up ultimately being pretty chalk this is still a pretty fun way to end it. also i'm pretty sure i matched people's names to usernames right

BUT I WIN IF DUKE WINS AND FLORIDA DOESN'T MAKE THE FINALS RIGHT!?

Bahahahaha

 

[Fool's Requiem]

how many points are earned in Final Four and the finals?

 

[Fire Queen]

the formula appears to be each game being worth 320/x points, where x is the number of games in that given round. so round of 64 games are worth 10 a pop, and so on

the non-math answer is the final four games are worth 160 apiece, and the championship is a hefty 320

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Florida would be absolutely dominating this game if they weren't committing so many damn turnovers...

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Let's go Florida!

 

[A Baby Maker]

Houston managed to come back enough at the end of the first half there to make it interesting

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Flagg is going to be a dangerous opponent for Florida if Duke moves on.

 

[A Baby Maker]

Seems like Duke is gonna win the whole thing based on what we're seeing.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Seems like Duke is gonna win the whole thing based on what we're seeing.

Also, right now, it's me FQ and Quagmire left in this race. If Duke wins, it's just me and Quagmire. Jon is out of the race because Quagmire picked Florida to win today. Auburn losing ended a lot of players brackets today.

 

[A Baby Maker]

I had to make that statement so Houston could actually get back in the game.

I have Houston winning it all in my other bracket that's actually for money.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Houston is refusing to die.

 

[A Baby Maker]

Well this was unexpected. Fantastic game going on.

Figured these were the two best teams in the country, so I'm glad they're delivering.

 

[A Baby Maker]

Houston got it. Wow.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Holy fuck

 

[A Baby Maker]

Hopefully they don't blow it in the last few seconds. They've never won it all and I'd prefer them to take it this year.

There's still technically enough time. But man it's not what you want if you're Duke.

 

[A Baby Maker]

Hell yeah Houston! Win it all!

Also because then I'll win $100

 

[Cam]

Duke got absolutely screwed there.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

@Fire Queen you and me for the win on Monday.

 

[Cam]

But seriously, Flagg would have been must watch TV on Monday. Disappointed in terms of entertainment.

 

[Local Hero]

Duke got absolutely screwed there.

 

[Zell 17]

Duke got absolutely screwed there.

 

[Quagmire]

Of course the year I dont pick Houston to make it, they make it.

For some reason I thought I had UF over Duke, guess not. Lets go Houston. Not a huge fan of UF

 

[A Baby Maker]

Man I'm liking this game so far.

Houston player just got accidentally decked in the chest though so hopefully he's just winded

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Florida turnovers are killer. I agree with Alu, though. Solid game so far.

 

[Local Hero]

I'm starting to think Oregon doesn't have a shot here

 

[A Baby Maker]

I'm starting to think Oregon doesn't have a shot here

If they took a shot it would be illegal since they shouldn't be on the court.

Houston has picked it up

 

[Fool's Requiem]

there is no way thar missed goaltending call becomes an issue later on

 

[Fool's Requiem]

what the fuck is Florida doing???

 

[A Baby Maker]

what the fuck is Florida doing???

Fouling 5 times in 150 seconds to start the second half.

They're trying to help me win money.

 

[A Baby Maker]

A player on Houston we just elbowed in the face and had a foul called on him.

Guess Houston isn't allowed to run away with this. Got up by too many points.

 

[A Baby Maker]

Definitely don't feel good about the end of this game. Florida took their first lead since the beginning of the game with less than a minute to go.

 

[Fool's Requiem]

this is nuts

 

[Fool's Requiem]

[Fire Queen]

well there's always next year

 

[Jon]

well there's always next year

I'm happy to guess school names with you all in 2026!

 

[Jon]

If there is a 2026 at this rate

 

[A Baby Maker]

There will be a 2026 itself. What exists outside of the year is up in the air though.

My coffee deprived brain missed a "season" in that statement. It meant to say "If there is a 2026 SEASON at this rate"

I'm good now though. I've had a sip of coffee before 3 hours of meetings. Now it's just my normal stupidity as opposed to coffee deprivation!

 

[Nae'blis]

I'm happy to guess school names with you all in 2026!

I'm happy to end up in last place again with you all in 2026!

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Creighton is winning it all next year.

we are renumbering the calendar to be 1 DT
