Guest Seven Sins Report post Posted March 20, 2005 . Well, every single one of those went wrong for me. Hopefully, at least Boston College will win and cover, because I put the last $30 in my gambling account on them, and they're one of the few Sweet 16 teams I have left that wasn't picked by everyone else in the country. Looks like you just lost 30 bucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Hey kids. I've been out and about all weekend. Right now I'm standing in kinda trouble, but kinda good. Basically, I've lost 6 Sweet 16 teams, but only one Elite 8. The good thing is that everyone else in my bracket here at school (there are about 20 of us) is in worse shape. One poor girl had Kansas beating Syracuse in the Final Four, and Kansas over Gonzaga in the championship. Ouch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MARTYEWR 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 I'm still okay, even though Texas Tech killed off my Final Four representative from the Albuquerque region. Illinois and Arizona are fine, so I might have the Great 8 matchup correctly in the Chicago region. I have Utah going all the way to the Great 8 against Duke, so I'm happy they're still alive.

Cuban Linx 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 So far i got Utah, Washington, Arizona & Illinois correct, and Texas Tech and Wisconsin Milwaukee wrong. Lost three of my Sweet 16, but my final 8 are all still alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Wake/WVU is getting down to the wire, and WVU is finally getting it done inside. 1-point game at 2 minutes to go... UK seems to have gotten away from Cincy in the final minute. So long, Bearcats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 I'll be pissed if I lose Wake, but it'll make the road that much easier for GT presuming a win against Louisville. And it'll fuck up the brackets of all my other ACC-crazy friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MARTYEWR 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Fuck! West Virginia's going to fuck me over twice. I'm screwed next round anyways, with Gonzaga being eliminated, but now I may be completely out to lunch as far as the lower bracket of the Albuerquerque region goes. At least Kentucky won. I had Kentucky and Utah facing each other in the Sweet Sixteen, so that's good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it'll fuck up the brackets of all my other ACC-crazy friends. Ditto. I want Wake to win just because I've missed so many games today that I don't want to lose any more, but I think in the long run, a WV win would actually help me.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 It's becoming obvious the entire ACC has one major collective weakness: the teams have no CLUE how to defend dribble penatration. And god, this game is looking like DOUBLE OT. And here I thought that Zaga/Tech game was going to be the best of the second round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Jesus fucking Christ. I've seen Wake (my 2nd favorite team after Illinois) choke in the tournament for the last decade, but this is ridiculous.

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Give it up for Eric Williams. He's been incredible this entire game, and that block to send it into double OT was un-sane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2005 Double overtime! Basketball hasn't been my favorite sport since high school. I prefer baseball and maybe even football now, but even when basketball was my fave, I preferred pro to college. Despite that, I'm beginning to think that the NCAA Tournament may top the MLB playoffs as the most exciting time of year in sports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
