Guest Evolution Report post Posted March 18, 2005 11/16, as Chicago turned out pretty good for me. Hoping Day 2 will top out at 13-14, though. I consider this a disappointment for me, as I'm trying to repeat as champion of a local non-TSM pool I'm in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MARTYEWR 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 14/16, only losses for me were Creighton and LSU. I should've joined a Yahoo pool. Ah well, I should be near the top in the office money pool I'm in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vern Gagne 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Only 10 correct, and 2 Sweet Sixteen teams eliminated. Stupid, I picked Arizona to win the damn tournament in a tourney pool for money, and here I don't even have them beating LSU in the 2nd round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Evolution Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Southern IL, OK St., GA Tech, Louisville, UNC, Minnesota, Villanova, Ohio, Wisconsin, Kansas, N.C. State, UConn, Duke, Stanford, Michigan St., Syracuse today. Ohio is a stretch, but I had to make one upset pick and that might as well have been it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If anyone knows how to get eliminated in the first two rounds of the NCAA tournament, it's Billy Donovan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MARTYEWR 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Iowa State is giving Minnesota all they can handle. So far, it's the only one I'm losing, but it's not the end of the world if I lose this one, because I have Minnesota getting knocked out in the second round anyway.

MARTYEWR 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 NC State's leading against Charlotte now. Much like Minnesota, it's not the end of the world if Charlotte loses, since I had them losing in the second round anyway, but the Syracuse Region is giving me a few headaches.

mike546 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Thank god for NC State. They NEED to hold this lead. The NC State game and the Minnesota game don't mean that much to me, I don't have them going past the 2nd round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Der Kommissar 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Did anyone besides me pick ISU? I did. I figured that they were able to give a lot of the Big 12 fits, while Minnesota never really did anything to stand out. It looks like it is currently paying off.

MARTYEWR 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Damn, what an offensive performance in the second half by N.C. State. Too bad for Hodge that there's only 2 minutes to go. He's 3 rebounds and 2 assists away from a triple double. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Evolution Report post Posted March 18, 2005 I didn't have faith in ISU, but if they should win, I have North Carolina beating the winner in the second round anyway, so I think I'll make it. Really happy about N.C. State, that game had me nervous since two of my picks (Minnesota and Ohio) are already in trouble in the Syracuse region. I wish my local CBS affiliate would go away from the ISU game, since I'm more interested in the fight that SE Louisiana is putting up against Oklahoma St. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Der Kommissar 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 If everything holds, I will be 4 for 4 for this session, and 17 of 20 overall. I am not looking forward to later though as I have two 12s going over 5's. If it works, then it will be nice foresight, if it fails, then I will fall a bit behind.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 As far as the NCAA tournament goes, Donovan is a miserable coach. Never seems to be able to convince his players to PLAY ENTIRE GAMES. They survive this time but don't be surprised if it's bye bye in round two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smh810 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Nah Florida is still a Sweet 16 team minimum. Yes Coach D has trouble getting his players up for 1st round games but this group is simply too good. When theyre on they can not only beat anybody but destroy them. This is their wake-up call and I dont see Villanova or New Mexico beating them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
