We're all good. As long as UVA wins it all.

Went 11-5 and all Elite Eight picks are still alive. But f*cking Iowa State and UCLA...
Re: Results "2nd Round"
10-6. Don't think I have ever done that bad opening day, but all of my elite 8 picks are still alive so not the end of the world.
Re: Results "2nd Round"
12-4. But I had Iowa St. losing to us in the title game so... yeah.

Re: Results "2nd Round"
12-4 also with Iowa st in the Final 4. Believing at all in any big 12 team was a huge mistake. Conf is a joke.AZCatGirl wrote:12-4. But I had Iowa St. losing to us in the title game so... yeah.

Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?
Re: Results "2nd Round"
I had Baylor in the Sweet 16 too. Next year I should just assume every Big 12 team loses in the first weekend.

Re: Results "2nd Round"
13-3 on the first day of the 2nd round
Re: Results "2nd Round"
I still have 7/8 of my elite 8 and 3/4 of my final 4.

So, 12-4 on Thursday. Friday, 9-0 at the moment.
Right where I want to be.
Re: Results "2nd Round"
If The Fighting Archies hold on, I'll be 15-1. Damn you, Davidson. And 27-5 overall. But had Cyclones in the FF. Got every 8-9 game, unheard of for me. Didn't pick any 12 seeds.
Right where I want to be.

Re: Results "2nd Round"
Who the heck is "BearDown CBUS" on the CBS bracket challenge? 'He' has missed exactly 1 out of 31 (UAB over Iowa St.) and by my quick scan should probably be all by himself in first place, but they haven't updated the standings recently.
That is damn good picking, I say.
He has picked Providence in this last game. Looking touch and go for that pick, Archie may be gonna trip him up.

Archies by 8!

Re: Results "2nd Round"
You'd think someone with the name BearDown CBUS would know not to count out the Miller brothers. Ever.

Re: Results "2nd Round"
Same with me. Well, now 23-9. But I had us beating ISU in the title game. Lots of red ink bleeding from that quadrant...AZCatGirl wrote:12-4. But I had Iowa St. losing to us in the title game so... yeah.

Re: Results "2nd Round"
There is only one perfect bracket on ESPN. I hope AZ the team that ruins his bracket as he/she has OSU beating the Cats.

Re: Results "2nd Round"
Oh yeah. I'm 26-6 - good for a piece of 155869th place. I had Baylor and Iowa St. in the Sweet 16. Time to regroup for the next round.
Beardown CBUS doesn't show on the page anymore; but he has to be tied for 6th at 30-2 - there must be too many folks at 30-2 to show on the screen, I guess.
There are two other 30-2 brackets named Wilcats and Wilcats#2. One has Arizona beating Gonzaga in the final, the other beating 'Nova.

Going strictly by the rankings might sustain you in a 10-person pool, but the chances of winning decrease as the number of people in the contest increase. Instead of fighting upstream along with everyone else who’s been hypnotized by Karl-Anthony Towns, consider a different approach: selecting a possible champion that’s been overlooked compared with Kentucky, but is still an analytics darling. Consider picking the other Wildcats: Arizona.
