whos going to win SD or Wkentucky?

Well Duke got beat. That help my bracket because I had them getting bounced this round. But I had Zona beating them not WVU. By the way Huggins once again gets the win. He may not make the best personal decisions but man can that guy coach.

In this bracket, I had duke in the Championship. Luckily I had them losing next round, in my others 2.

So hippie how many points does that make for you then?

Stanford's coach got ejected. THAT IS NOT GOOD FOR MY BRACKET!

EDIT: Stanford escapes with a victory to save my Bracket.

Well...It looks like I came in last here.

I took some chances, here and there, I regret nothing.

I have to say I'd love to see WSU blow my bracket apart with a win over UNC.

GO Cougs!

Well, though my picks don't officially count, the ones I posted above would have been good for 240 first-round points and 200 second-round points, or a total of 440, in fourth place and 20 out of the lead. I have 7 of my Elite Eight left, and all of my Final Four, so I'd have a shot.

Unfortunately I think the odds of us getting an upset are basically zero. I don't know what I would do if we pulled off the upset...probably weep hysterically, I suppose.

I actually thought if Baynes could control Hansbrough the Cougs had a decent chance. In fact if you said Hansbrough would go in at half with just two points I would have thought the Cougs would make it a lot closer than a 21 points loss.

But all those missed threes with a team who loves to break and is good at it, is not going to win many games.

Well at least my bracket is still hanging in there.

Yeah, they lost control of the tempo in the beginning of the second half, and too often they doubled on Hansbrough at the expensive of their perimeter defense. Good season though...when's the last time you could say you were proud of Cougar basketball?

Bring on the madness.

I think I win if Texas wins it all! :-D

Rose would look good in a Sonics uni. He's completely outplaying Augustin so far.

Troy McClure · Post #58 » by **Troy McClure** » Tue Apr 8, 2008 3:57 am

I came in 4th...had a pretty good first day, but like they say, the bracket isn't won on the first weekend.

wiff · Post #59 » by **wiff** » Tue Apr 8, 2008 2:14 pm

Well I was doing great until the elite eight. Then the final four I got nothing. With UCLA and UNC getting beat I had squat.

But that was one hell of a Championship game. The whole time the experts were talking about how Memphis couldn't win a Championship with their poor free throw shooting and sure enough the experts were right.

BrockEvil · Post #60 » by **BrockEvil** » Tue Apr 8, 2008 5:41 pm

isn't calipari the coach who doesn't practice free throws in his sessions? he just tells his players to picture themselves making the shots...too bad karma kicked in
