NCAA Basketball 2007-2008

[recuperi]

7 of my sweet 16 teams gone now ._. at least none of my elite eight has been touched yet

and yeah what tyche said up there, if you went by coach history alone it would be duke vs unc in the championship but we all know that's out the window

[Ryany]

Go go Mississippi State! Let's get our money's worth for destroying brackets.

Plus, I remember reading somewhere about the long legal record on many of the Memphis Players.

[Serif]

2/4 of my Final Four is out

God if Memphis loses, my sister and her boyfriend are going to be so pissed.

Gooooo State!

[Akiyama]

Imagine if Stephen Curry plays for UNC or Duke... How did the schools miss out on him?

Combination of not being hotly recruited and the desire to stay local. He went to High school here in Charlotte. His brother still plays here in High school, his Mom and Dad live her etc... (His dad a former Charlotte Hornet, has duties for the Basketball operations for the Bobcats) Davidson is always good in Hoops and the campus is only about 12 miles away from Charlotte.

Tight knit family + a desire to play close to home. I remember reading about how he was being recruited heavily by Clemson, Wake Forest and NC State and a few other ACC school hardcore.

Yeah, the kid played great, no joke. It'll be interesting to see how Davidson progresses too. The fact that we have as many double digit seeds as we do getting to the Sweet Sixteen this year is crazy. Especially after the first day where chalk roamed wild, and now we have had all of these upsets. Ugh. If my bracket wasn't totally fucked up, I'd be excited, but alas.

[Tyche]

I hate seeing large upsets because I love seeing great games, but I'm going outside my box here and pulling for miss state. That's just because I fucking hate memphis. Coast to a top team playing in the equivalent of a mid-major conference.

Edit: I still have 6 elite 8 and all of my final four teams in. I don't think I have memphis in the elite 8.

[archibaldcrane]

I have Memphis winning this game, but since I have Texas in the championship, I don't mind if Memphis goes out a round early at all.

yeah.


not to mention, MSU vs MSU next round. WHO IS THE SUPERIOR MSU?

[Tyche]

Whoever is calling the UL game (Lundquist?) needs to learn to pronounce the damn names of the players.

[Tyche]

God dammit his name isn't palashus. It's pa la see ose

I have 6/8 of my elite 8 and 3/4 of my Final Four (Georgetown -.-), and have Memphis winning until they play Texas. D: Oh well. Not a good year.

[octopus]

At least you guys didn't pick Uconn... oh god

[Akiyama]

At least you guys didn't pick Uconn... oh god

If you had UConn, Georgetown and Duke in one bracket..man oh man x.x

[Tyche]

3rd of 35 is nice, but - want to fucking win!

Hopefully UL picks up this slack from the top of the big east. Looking hot in the opening minutes, but then again, so did GT.

[archibaldcrane]

At least you guys didn't pick Uconn... oh god

You're winning right now Octopus, but I saw your UConn Final 4 pick and smiled.

(I'm the idiot that picked Duke into the Elite 8 though...)

Wow, the guy winning the ESPN game right now has all of his Elite 8, and the only Sweet 16 team he's missing...is because he picked Boise State to beat Louisville and St. Joseph's. He went nuts picking against 4 and 5 seeds. His final is Kansas over Xavier.

I really hope W. Virginia beats Xavier, because it will probably fuck alot of people who were smart enough to pick against Duke.

[octopus]

At least you guys didn't pick Uconn... oh god

You're winning right now Octopus, but I saw your UConn Final 4 pick and smiled.

yeah I just checked I have the lowest "max possible points" out of everybody in the top ten though... ;o

[Ryany]

I know they haven't played anyone tough yet, but UNC is looking awfully good.

[archibaldcrane]

Talus is in the best shape, but that's because he's the type of asshole who picks all 4 #1 seeds in the final 4. Go Texas and Wisconsin!

I know they haven't played anyone tough yet, but UNC is looking awfully good.

I was just going to say the same thing.

Looks like my Oklahoma over Louisville pick isn't going so well

[Tyche]

UL is looking really really fucking good. I wanna see them play UNC. Gimme sum padgett vs hansboro.

[Rehont]

UNC looking REALLY good right now .. I am loving it

[Tyche]

Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal
