Good idea. I think Tennessee might not be a top seed but I have been wrong before. My Hoyas sittin pretty lol

Cory
03-11-2008, 04:08 PM
yea they are. who do you think will be the cinderella this year?

im a little curious as to why san diego is 52, and Cornell is 53 on that prediction list...

Cory
03-11-2008, 04:09 PM
yea tennessee may or may not be a #1...kinda looks like kansas is getting jipped seeing as how tenn and ucla have the same record...but then again kansas has to split their conference championship with texas.

Mister J
03-11-2008, 04:16 PM
NO. 1 SEEDS
1. North Carolina (29-2)

There. Much better. :up:

im a little curious as to why san diego is 52, and Cornell is 53 on that prediction list...
Gotta slot the mid-majors in somewhere. Although, I though Cornell might be a bit higher, but USD has been playing well as of late and taking out Gonzaga was big for them.

Cory
03-11-2008, 04:58 PM
very true. wow i didnt realize miami only has 9 losses

Mister J
03-11-2008, 05:02 PM
Big year for the 'Canes. That closing loss against Florida State hurt, but they should be in anyway. A decent showing in the ACC Tourney should lock it up.

Cory
03-11-2008, 05:04 PM
when is the first tourny game?

Mister J
03-11-2008, 05:06 PM
Pretty much all of the power conferences start Thursday, except for the Pac-10 and Big East who start tomorrow.

Cory
03-11-2008, 05:24 PM
so im guessing the ncaa tourny starts around the 22nd or so

Mister J
03-11-2008, 05:28 PM
My bad. I thought you were talking conferences.

The Big Dance kicks off on the 20th.

We'll just ignore the play-in game. :o

Cory
03-11-2008, 05:30 PM
no no not your bad, i was asking about both :up:

yea the playin game is worthless, the winner is knocked out the next game 9 times outta 10.

Cory
03-15-2008, 10:22 PM
brackets should be available sometime tomorrow night...

anyone watching the games tonight? wow 3 top 10 teams lose...


clemson over duke
pitt over georgetown
arkansas over tennessee

georgia is putting together a cinderella type run in the sec tourny, against arkansas in sec championship, pitt wins big east, clemson and unc in acc championship right?

Cory
03-16-2008, 03:01 PM

Ahh, the sound of thousands of brackets being filled out at once.

*wipes tear*
I love it.

Virginia Tech's coach is going to be ticked. I can't wait until his comments are aired.

Cory
03-16-2008, 05:52 PM

Six Big 12 teams made it in, my beloved Jayhawks getting a no. 1 seed!

Cory
03-16-2008, 06:08 PM
yep Kansas, UCLA, Memphis and UNC are the 1 seeds. kinda figured.

ive got UCLA winning it all...

i want Memphis to win it all...

cinderella team, i dunno yet.

No, not prior to this at least. We usually have one, so it's no problem by me. Definitely get those brackets in here; talk upsets, good matchups, who has the easier route, predictions, etc. :up:

lol yea right, theyd have to go through memphis, mich st., texas, then ucla in the final four :)

Pinky
03-16-2008, 10:14 PM
I have UNC, UCLA, and Kansas in my final four, with Michigan State being the surprise contender from the South. I know, I know, but State is definitely the best team from the Big Ten year in and year out, come tournament time. Wisconsin always seems to flare out. I have them and Indiana losing in round 1, and Purdue making it a tad bit further.

Pinky
03-16-2008, 10:24 PM
I finally got in.....and yes, being a typical homer, I have Uconn in the final four. The only real challenges in their bracket is Duke or UCLA

To be honest, UConn can actually make the Elite Eight, but I have UCLA winning the region. I think some bracketologists have them as a surprise elite eight appearance.

Duke, well... Duke always seems to be a favorite, but some mid-major knocks them out early. Didn't Virginia Commonwealth or someone knock them out last year?

I joined, though I'm historically not very good at these as I do not follow college basketball at all until the tournament and even then I only watch the last two minutes of each game (as after all, its the only part that matters :cwink:). Still, I like to do these for ****s and giggles.

I like that Thomas got that experience; depth is always good, but the Heels needs Tywon to be Tywon. Seeing some of his moves in the last couple of ACC Tourney games had me stoked. I'm looking for Green and Gunyard to be big too ...along, of course, with Mr. Hansbrough

Cinderella is one of the best parts about this thing. There always seems to be a handful of teams who win games they really have no business winning; the 12-5 matchups are gold. A number of those stories are great. I'm always glad when the Committee gives a healthy number of at-large spots to the mid-majors.

When Green is on he is amazing. He is one of my favorite players on the Heels. Ginyard played great in the ACC tourney, so hopefully he can carry that throughout the rest of March. And Hansbrough is always a beast.

03-20-2008, 01:50 PM
I'm a bigger idiot. For some reason I don't have a pick for the Pittsburgh/Oral Roberts game. They'd better not advance past MSU. I don't want a blank space come final four time:dry:

True to usual form, Georgia plays a great game for the most part and then falls apart near the end. It's what we do in basketball. Ugh.

I accidentally didn't pick the Pitt/O-Rob game. so it's going to be a blank space, and not count for any point if any team advances beyond MSU.:cmad::csad: So Pittsburg better not make any headway, otherwise I lose more opportunites for points.

There are only so many points you can get total. Say you had Arizona going to the Sweet 16, since they lost tonight you can't get points for them winning in the second round either; but if you had them winning tonight, but then losing to Duke in the second round, you could still get your second round points. So its like, getting that game wrong wouldn't hurt you as much as if you had them going far into the tourney.
