I'm aware of the bracket, thanks though! I was thinking Tennessee, Oakland, or Memphis would end up playing UConn in the Elite 8 and therefore wouldn't really be a challenge. That likely won't happen now though
I picked Vandy because I was convinced they were a solid team (true) and wouldn't choke in yet another NCAA tourney (false). ANOTHER choke. That's two 5-12 upsets in a row for them. Oops. They had all the tools to make a run too.Vandy just lost to Richmond. I didn't see that happening but something told me to take the underdog in Richmond and I snagged it.
It would be a hot mess right about now....

Common sense ain't common
Hate to break it to you, but Butler knocked off #1 Pitt. THAT right there is going to eff up just about EVERYONE'S bracket...

Yeah, I had Pitt in the final four. However, I somehow moved up into 1st on my ladder with 98%.

I was thinking maybe The Open, if only because they show so much more of the golf - it seems like there's 15 hours of golf shown each round. The Masters is great viewing, and it usually manages to deliver some Sunday afternoon magic, but they don't show as much golf. I also think the different (and legendary) courses and the unpredictable effect of the weather make The Open pretty interesting.

The end of that game was crazy, but that's the beauty of the NCAA's - they always seem to deliver crazy, and unexpectable versions of it at that.

The tournament has been crazy so far! Butler/Pitt, UNC/Washington, and Texas/Zona were especially insane endings. I don't remember another collection of games like that with fouls and weird shots and whatnot.
And the upsets! Pitt goes down? ND and Syracuse too? Hello Big Least! The Sweet 16 has 3 ACC teams, 2 SEC, 2 Big 10, 2 Big East, 1 Pac 10, 1 Big 12, and 5 mid major! 4 teams 10 seed or lower. That's bracket busting. Anyone whose Southwest bracket isn't mostly annihilated was on crack when making their picks. Luckily KU is still alive, which is most people's final 4 pick
My bracket isn't looking so hot...picked some 12 and 13 upsets, just the wrong ones! All of my final 4 teams are left, but the other 4 games for the Elite 8 my winners were eliminated when I made (or missed) upset picks.
so what team did Georgia Tech and Maryland morph into anyway? not sure i ever figured that out

It looks like all 5 of my Final Four picks are still alive.

They haven't been eliminated yet, ergo they are still alive. I dont have time right now to get lost in any other extraneous details regarding, or gratuitous explanations of, the matter.

As disappointing as it is to me, Tilted, it seems those d**ned Yankee preppies from Orange County Community College 
are still in (though I've never cared much for Marquette, either.)

Almost did but UNC has a horrible gag reflex. :choke:
Shoot. I bet most of those boys are hung like horses.
