I think Pitt is a 10? If so, they are worth a flyer.

S Dakota St over Maryland

Wich St over AZ

Temple over Iowa

VCU over OR ST

Syracuse over Dayton

Gonzaga over Seton Hall

Pitt over Wisconsin



That's probably too many. College BB fans help a board member out, any of those crazy?

Big Ten was good this year right? Maybe ill switch the Maryland one

When I picked Wilmington over Duke I didn't realize they were actually going to be playing against Duke and the refs. My mistake.

Yale up 7 on Baylor with about 12 minutes left. Baylor's 2 best players just got into a shoving match on the sidelines during a time out. Uh oh, that can't be good.

And Yale is missing their best player, another "rapist."

Please hang on Yale.

Post subject:  Re: Your First Round Upsets

I took Yale based on the spread. Very low for a 12-5 matchup

Typical Duke bullshit. The lamestream media and Duke lovers everywhere are behind this.

No problem.

Purdue loses. IU rolls. The only thing that could make this better is if Kentucky gets knocked off

Post subject:  Re: Your First Round Upsets

yea, I finally got one right in Wichita. Their next game vs Miami is gonna be really good, two extremely veteran teams with really solid and steady point guards.


My wife had Little Rock and has them winning another game as well.


I knew my Iona pick was gonna backfire when I started seeing every expert picking them as well. Best way to ruin an upset pick is to give the other team a week's worth of bulletin board material. That happens every tournament. Hard to sneak up on Iowa State when they spent the whole week getting disrespected.


Hoping today's games are better than yesterday. Aside from the Little Rock double OT and the Providence last second winner there weren't any good games yesterday.
