NCAA brackets

Did anyone pick any of the upsets or have any of their final 4 teams eliminated yet? I picked Villinova to to the finals all and they almost lost, the ole butthole puckered up a bit at the end of that game. I also picked Murray state to upset Vanderbuilt (I have no idea why, it just seemed like a good idea at the time). Got lucky both times.

    No final 4 picks eliminated. I picked Old Dominion but none of the others image

    I missed 5 games yesterday and somehow am still in second place. The leader right now is a lady that doesn't follow sports at all. She actually picked Ohio over Georgetown. image

    I also have 'Nova going to the Final 4 so I was panicked a little over their game. As far as upsets go I picked St. Mary's over Richmond and both 9 over 8 games.

    56 people still have perfect brackets in ESPN's contest. image

    My best one was 12 of 16.

    UTEP took me out of having a perfect 16/16 yesterday in my money bracket. Don't think I'll be 15/16 today though... Although I do have Cornell taking out Wisconsin and Xavier over Pittsburgh this weekend. My Final Four of Tennessee, Baylor, Syracuse and Kentucky (my champion) are still alive.

    Final Four here is Kansas State, Duke, Kentucky, and Kansas still alive....

    Villanova lost 5 of there last 7 games, and Robert Morris should have beaten them. Will be suprised if they make it to the final 4.

    Kansas goes down....
  • bobbyw8469bobbyw8469 Posts: 7,144 ✭✭✭
    I believe they are still alive?


  • << <i>Kansas goes down.... >>



    Yes, I'm very annoyed.... had my best bracket in years going... only missed 5 games in the first round and 1 in the second. Even picked Washington to upset New Mexico. Of course Kansas was my National Champion image

    WOW! Yea, that is definitely a bracket buster!! Don't worry though - it killed everyone's bracket!

    My brackets are a mess. However I do have the Buckeyes beating West Virginia in the final, so thats still a possibility.

    My ESPN rank:

    * points 210
    * PCT (%) 11.4%
    * RNK 4,236,009

    My championship game: Kansas over Villanova. Counting yesterday's upsets, eight of my sweet 16 are gone - I don't have a single team in the sweet 16 picked right yet. I'm no genius when it comes to college basketball, but this is easily my worst bracket ever.

    'Nova lost and that's not a surprise. Nice to see Kansas lose too. That's why they play the game!
  • bobbyw8469bobbyw8469 Posts: 7,144 ✭✭✭
    Some of these teams think all they have to do is show up to win......nice to see some of the upsets. On a side note, nice to see UNC beat the #1 seed in the NIT tourney.....definitely a humbling experience for them, but I like them to win the NIT now...
  • Good to see Washington and the two Pac-10 schools do well. Many said only one should have made it in the tourny. What do they know? I think Cal will win tomorrow to put them both in the sweet 16.
  • I can't believe Kansas lost. I need to watch the highlights now.

    PS: By the way, does this happen to anyone else.....when I click Preview to see what my post looks like, it doesn't show up. Does this happen to any of you all? Just wondering.
    Thanks for your help everyone.

    Not if you're from Iowa, once every 20 years being loyal to the instate schools pays off, go UNI.image

    Right now I'd say they are in a state of elation.

    Thank you Xavier!!! All in all, this has been a great run for me. Not that I'm encouraging wagering, but I've had a heckuva run. Cornell at +180 outright over Wisconsin was a treat and yesterday I hit a huge parlay with Kentucky (-9), St. Mary's (+4) and Baylor (-4). That being said, I'm still in 3rd place in my big money bracket (612 entries at $50 per -- $15K to the winner and $15K split between the next 9 finishers), but the two ahead of me have Kansas in the Final Four while I've got Tennessee.

    I am ripping up my bracket as I type. All of my final four teams are out. I did really well the first round and then it went downhill after that. At least i only lost $10.00 to get into the pool at work.

    I had a couple of brackets. In one of them I have Kansas in the final game playing UK. Still have 3 in the final four. In my second, I have Cuse beating Kansas so I'm still in it with 4. However, overall, I struggled in the first 2 rounds on both. Just looked at the top guy on ESPN and he has 15 of 16 remaining. His lone loss is Kansas. Wow! Never thought anyone would have had Cornell and St.Mary's picked in the sweet 16.


    Thanks,

    Why not? If I did it, I'm sure there are quite a few more brackets that have it, too. Especially if you watched the way Cornell played against the big boys this season and the way Villanova looked to finish the season.
