Nova wins my bracket is still pretty safe.

 

[SoonerBounce13]

what is up with people having **** plays at the end of games?

 

[MercedeSooner]

Nova wins my bracket is still pretty safe.

lol after having watched that game you think your bracket is safe with having Nova in the final 4 ?

 

[NickZepp]

A win is a win. Didn't UConn almost lose to Albany in the first round the year they won the national title? Or am I confusing years?

 

[MercedeSooner]

Baylor is gonna blow out SH. They dont play any D.

 

[OUHoops]

Looks like the entire upper deck at the New Orleans arena is competely empty. Heard on the radio they had only sold 60 percent of their tickets. Ouch.

too early to worry about brother. i usually dont start taking my bracket serious until the sweet 16, though it is fun to watch.

I've got BYU in the title game, though....

 

[MercedeSooner]

oh. good luck then.

:ez-laugh:

I think I have them in the SS or EE; I figured they'd be so sick of hearing about first round failures that they would be extra focused and be a tough out even for a higher seed. Found myself wondering what the heck I was thinking...

You serious, Clark?

I thought they'd do well with the home court advantage in the Sweet 16 and Elite 8.

Besides, I was picking to try to "win", so I was a little contrarian. (I think I just made up a word...)

 

[DSMok1]

You serious, Clark?

Yeah... #8 in Pomeroy ratings, basically a very good team that NO ONE thinks is that good. Or perhaps they aren't that good. So, to give my bracket a shot at cleaning up, I took them deep into the tournament. All the way to the title game, in fact.

My bracket is based on trying to maximize my upset picks, balanced against the odds that the upsets will actually happen. BYU gave the most bang for my pick on that side of the bracket (why pick KU, even they are the most likely to get there? Like half the country has KU in the title game.)

I see it all the time but someone please tell me North Texas school name isnt "Mean Green"

Nova barely made it out of the first round last year against American in a simliar game, was down big early and fought to win close at the end...that team ended up in the Final Four...

That whole bracket IMO is filled with sketchy teams...any of which could lose a game really early in the tournament...Duke, Nova, Baylor and Purdue...are you kidding me with those 4?

Do I have to be telling the truth if I say it?
