Man, I hate working. I missed everything from 4 to 9. The only thing I saw today was Notre Dame screwing me over for the second round in a row.

*points and laughs*

 

That's what you get for doubting the awesomeness that is Chris Thomas.

I had Notre Dame in the Sweet 16.

 

 

Does anyone not like upsets? 5-12 can be fine (especially if a team you pick wins), but I'd rather see the better team Arizona play Notre Dame, than Gonzaga.

I'm sure I'm not the only Duke-hater out there, so others should weigh in: In just his freshman year, J.J. Redick is rapidly climbing up the list of my Least Favorite Dukies of All-Time. Right now it's

 

1. Christian Laettner

2. Bobby Hurley

3. Steve Wojo

4. Cherokee Parks

5. Thomas Hill

6. J.J. Redick

Had Tureok *sp* not fouled out for Gonzaga in the second half they would've beaten arizona. But either way it was one hell of a game and gonzaga keeps showing they can play with the best of them as they did with georgia, indiana and n.c. state this year.

 

Not bad so far i'm 31-9 and in womens hoops i've only lost one game today and that was by one point. Kansas and Duke looked good tonight so next week should be an entertaining game between the two teams.

Well, I don't like Duke in general, and there are a few guys who stand out in particular. Really, it's because Redick hits big shots against teams I want to win. Isn't that why any fan hates any player? Same reason us Browns fans hate John Elway.

Duke wont beat Kansas. Arizona should be able to beat ND, but I wouldnt bet any large sums of money on that fact.

 

I only missed 1 game (had Illinois, but then again most people had them as well..) and I didn't have Wisconsin or Tulsa.

 

 

tomorrow is going to be interesting..

I don't know about kansas over duke. I mean without wayne simieon they struggled against better quality teams the rest of the season. Not to mention they barely escaped a 15 seed in utah state. But i can't wait until tomorrow, such a shame i lost the tulsa game by one damn point.

I see Indiana over Pittsburgh as the days biggest upset. Hopefully Xavier can pull it out against Maryland (a tough 6 seed, I think they are even favored).

 

Is it just me or does it seem Kentucky knocks out Utah every year?

Utah does tend to wind up facing UK almost every year and they always lose.

 

As for the Duke/Kansas game...On Paper It should be a classic, With two HOF bound coaches and a great roster of players. I'm not sure how often Duke/Kansas haved played but this is a Championship Caliber game we're getting in the S16.

 

Today's games...

 

Kentucky should beat Utah but It'll be closer then you'd think.

 

Texas/Purdue...Texas should win this on easily...

 

Pitt/Indy...Alot of jumpers saying Indy could win it...I still say a Healthy Knight will carry Pitt...

 

Maryland/Xavier...Game of the day at least in my zone.

 

MSU and Florida...This will be the "UPSET" of the day.

 

 

 

Butler/LVILLE should be a fun game...

 

OKSt and Cuse...Syracuse will bounce them.

 

Burn and Wake...Wake has it.

 

So far this has been a good tournament although we've yet to have that Magical feel...I blame the war for that...We can't get giddy over Somebody hitting a GW Three when we have an American Tratior killing our soilders....

Even though we have a war going (may godspeed be with our troops) the great thing about this tourney is that we have had some great games so far. And anything that might bring some temporary joy to people here or oversees, fighting this thing, is always a good thing.

 

That said, Pitt looked like they had a lil too much talent for Indiana to handle.

For the sake of my bracket, thank fuck that did not happen.

I'm with Agent on this one.

 

BTW, UCONN won today (the women). Whoo!

I knew I wasn't the only one who felt that way. (About the Indiana/Pitt game) I'd be willing to bet a good number of us have Pitt going far in this tournament.

 

Damn, looking at the look-in of the Syracuse/Oklahoma State game, looks like the Orangemen are playing sloppy. (Just judging from what I seen and heard) Hopefully Syracuse pulls out the win, ditto for Louisville.

With the exception of the South bracket, I'm doing fine. I just hope that Purdon't beats Texas and Xavier goes to the Final Four.
