March Madness

[Pauly]

well this is why they call it madness. Congrats Lehigh and Ohio!

OU...OH YEAH! Way to go Cats. Bring on the Bulls and a possible Sweet 16 run!

University of New Mexico Lobos back in the tourney, led by stellar inside man Drew Gordon. Bet you wish you still had Gordon, eh UCLA?

Carlino, Moser, and Gordon just to name a few. Sigh.

We weren't even good enough to go to the NIT. Can't wait for next year when Kyle Anderson and Jordan Adams get to Westwood.

Baylor and Colorado were playing a nice tight fistfight of a game, then Baylor ran off and hid. Woof. Winner of Lehigh and Xavier up next, then probably Kentucky. Funny how the death march has not materialized.

Congrats to Ohio U. for their win. I'm sure Frae is stoked.

Congrats to the entire state of Ohio for taking up 1/4 of the Sweet 16. That's just sick.

Stoked doesn't even begin to describe it. I am 100% aware that playing UNC even without Marshall seems like a game Ohio is very unlikely to win, but boy is it going to be fun to watch. OU...Oh Yeah!

Kansas survived a dreadful game, but the hardwired defense bailed them out. Purdue's Hummel almost became another in the list out senior super heroes. Ugly game.

For reasons know only to God and ESPN, various people are favoring poor North Carolina State. Pite the Pack.

So close. I am spent having watched that. Plenty of things about OU's offense to complain about tonight, but their effort was great. If Offut makes that FT who knows. It was a fun run, OU, Oh yeah!

[onejayhawk]

We had a couple of good ones today. I caught the tail end of the Florida v Louisville game. If I had actually filled out a bracket, that region would have wrecked it. The second game was exactly what you would expect from two former #1 teams. The Big 10 out physicalled the Big East. Go figure.

I'd forgotten who I'd picked in the Liz Hurley bracket league.

Turns out I'm doing pretty well, here are my "Elite 8" picks:
Ohio State over Syracuse
Louisville over Florida
Kentucky over Duke
Kansas over North Carolina

Among my other lucky picks were Ohio U and NC State both to the Sweet 16

Wow, 7/8 and now 2 for 2 you've got to be among the national leaders, right? Who did you pick to win it?

Ohio State over Kentucky.

It says I'm 99th percentile, but the overall leaders are 98-99 points (one guy has 99), I have 88.

And in our league, if Baylor and UNC win today, "Mag7" will probably overtake me. He has Baylor winning it all.

[Andrewski]

4 for 4....nice work!

Let me know how much you'd charge to make picks for me next year.

[Judge Jude]

I saw a colleague days before the tournament started, and invited him into the office pool.
Unbeknownest to me, he enters TWO sheets, both nearly identical.

So now if Ohio St wins it all, I come in 3rd place instead of 1st, because the two sheets that beat me would be his.


And he didn't even pay me the $5 entry fee yet, or $10 total!

[billbuckner]

Perfect bracket so far. Wish me luck
