NCAA Final Four Picks

Wichita State now has a clearer path to the elite 8 at least. I would much rather we face George Mason than Michigan State. Just have to get by Tenn today.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Pitt has an easy road to the Elite 8. Memphis is weak. You'll need good luck against UCLA, they looked stellar on Thursday.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Wow, my school (Maryland) just got nubbed in the first round of the NIT. There's still women's basketball, but that just makes me laugh.

Today features one important game for my pool survival. Come on, Wichita State.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Manhattan looked pretty solid in dismantling Maryland. Not that the NIT really matters.

Duke flattens GW in a yawner. I'm pulling big for Wichita State also, although I really like the coach of Tennessee since they've been doing these spots on ESPN following the Vols as they prepare for the tourney.

I was speaking idiomatically.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!

Wichita State > Tennessee

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Fuck yeah. That win led my charge with about a 10 point lead in all my pools. Awesomeness.

How ya doing, buddy?

Wow, go George Mason. A lot of higher seeds in the sweet 16. (And West Virginia, of course.)

How ya doing, buddy?

Tch, never trust a team starting freshmen to make it to the Final Four...dammit, my bracket is totally screwed over.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Alright my bracket got fucked over HARD today. At least all my Final Four ones are still in there. BC's gonna have a tough time getting there, though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

My bracket somewhat got owned today, but I still am happy about today's results. People in my pool had UNC/Pittsburgh/The Ohio State University going much further, one even with UNC all the way. I, too, still have all my Final Four picks (one of two people in my pool), and the good news is that their path is supposedly easier now. We'll see, though. I continue to remain on top.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Thank god I wasn't a homer with Pittsburgh. I knew they'd fuck up, even if it was against fucking Bradley.

Bah, I pretty much stopped watching after I saw Kansas lose in the first round. Any hopes of a reasonably good bracket dies after one of your final two goes out.

Still, I have UConn, Texas, and BC to round out of my final 3.

naz, that MD loss was just sad. I've been following MD basketball for awhile, but when the women's team actually gives me more interesting stories than the self-destructing men's team, something is definitely wrong in College Park. I hope they get it fixed next year.

Yeah, it blows. I like how I pretty much entered Maryland after the party was over, i.e. after winning the national championship in 2002. It's been downhill from there, in both football and basketball. Soccer's been a blast though, and so has.. "women's basketball" apparently. Watch things get better once I'm outta here.

So much for you Duke fans.

Go LSU baby!!

FELIPE NO

Holy cow, the end to that Texas/West Virginia game was nuts. I had WVU in my Final Four as a bit of a sleeper and I think whomever won this game would beat LSU. Oh well, guess you can't win 'em all.

Pac-10 looking weak against Gonzaga here.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

It's always a joy for me to watch Redick suffer. Ah.... schadenfreude. But because of that, my bracket's broke as I had Duke in the final game.

Holy crap, that UCLA-Zag game was nuts. I feel sorry for Gonzaga, but I did have UCLA going to the Final Four. Good stuff. Really my only chance of winning my pool for sure is for Villanova to go all the way. March madness is madness.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, the end of that game was psychotic. Total collapse by Gonzaga. It seems like the stall offense is totally the wrong offense to run when you are up by a small amount in this tournament.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Wtf. Awesome end to the UCLA-Gonzaga game, although I'd probably being saying it was a terrible end if UCLA lost, haha. Almost wanted to turn off the game early too, good call on being lazy enough not to change the channel.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I really hate Texas. I hate LSU too, but I'll take the lesser of two evils for a day when those two play.

Ugh, I had WVU and Gonzaga in the Final Four. Last night kind of fucked me.

I was speaking idiomatically.

It was a damn shame Kansas, which I had losing to UConn in the champ game (stupid stupid stupid) lost in the first round.

However, my other three, Texas, BC, and UConn are still in the mix. Even though I had Duke beating LSU last night, I'm glad that Texas has a bit of an "easier" road to the final four. At this point though, I'm only playing for pride in my pools, rather than for any cash money prizes.

Most amazing jew boots

rip wvu. God damn, I was really pulling for them. And haha to Duke, Redick played like poop.

FELIPE NO

WHOOO. What a game between Nova and BC. That had me wilded out for that entire ending. My bracket remains alive, while killing many, many others. Props to George Mason too.

Most amazing jew boots

I'm very close to giving this year's tournament the best I've seen. And this includes the year that Maryland won the tourney. Almost every game I've watched has been buzzer-beaters and OT games. This is insanity. And you've even still got a cinderella in the Elite Eight, it has everything you want in a good tourney!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I agree. This tournament was amazing. I would've loved to see Washington beat UConn. That would've been sweet. They should've fould in the last few seconds of regulation to stop UConn from shooting a three. Nobody in college seems to ever do that :/. Insanity? more liek madness.
