I think I had ISU losing in the second, so UAB wasn't too much issue. I had UCLA over SMU, but fricken Baylor....

13/16 yesterday. All of my busted teams, Baylor, ISU, and Purdue were set to lose in the 2nd round of my bracket, so I can get back on track pretty fast.

Picked Nova to go to the final.

Unless Wisconsin, Louisville and Virginia lose today, I can throw my bracket away.

Was funny watching Louisville near the end of the game. Looked like the rim had oil on it... nothing would go in

Amazing game today vs Kentucky. Both teams can go far.

Weirdly enough, A&M is a 3 seed and Kentucky a 4 seed . Whatever, I'll take it!


And that sets up a possible A&M vs UT second round matchup!

I hope Dick Vital is glad his team won. He sure didn't bother hiding his bias. Fucking douche.



That was an amazing game. I'm not even mad we lost. Not really any different than having home game wins against each other.

Don't forget OU in the Sweet Sixteen and Baylor in the Elite Eight. Man I would love for a chance to beat all three of them.

I had them losing to UNC.

As for a new thread, I just went with it after imj posted here. I don't mod here, or I would consider moving these posts to a new thread.

Absolutely amazing. N. Iowa had a 99.9% chance of winning with that 12 point lead with 40 seconds. Amazing. Wow. Fuck.

To be honest, Northern Iowa should have won that game. There were so many times I was cussing at the TV because A&M players were passing the ball to the other team or throwing it out of bounds or doing other stupid shit... I swear that Collins kid looks like he is going to get the ball stolen from him every single time he dribbles it.

They've got to get their shit together because that first half was absolutely atrocious.

Agreed. It was the worst game I have watched us play this year (although I haven't watched them all). Still, we couldn't buy a shot, and they sunk every desperation NBA three they could throw up.

Yes, they deserved to win the game. No, I don't care.

Holy mother fucking shit A&M looks like they are on bath salts. Absolutely horrible. First 4 min were great. Since then it's been an absolute shit show, worse than last game.

What the fuck are they doing? I mean.. fuck. so many fucks to say.

Forfeit. Now. You all look like a junior high team right now. Fuck.

They didn't show up for the second quarter. Otherwise they could hang. We looked like a bug on OU's windshield as they drive to the Elite Eight.
