BYU is a perfect math-up for them as it is the overrated Fradette versus the Zags but really they are a hugely flawed team that is ready to be killed by the first decent team they face. Lucky for them BYU (as usual) is not that good.

Besides calling Fradette overrated....Explain how the Zags are a hugely flawed team?

Pretty sure Fradette was doing it all yesterday if he can keep that up BYU should be ok for a little bit

Watching this Oakland/Texas game...if the grizzlies could shoot even a bit better than they have or play ANY defense, they would be giving the horns all they could handle. Looks like a walk for UT thus far however.

If other guys were in the same position as him they could have lead the NCAA in scoring as well.
A guy like Nolan Smith played better, was equally important to his team and lead his team to a much better season and yet because he didn't chuck it up 100 times a game he doesn't get as much credit.

Hugely flawed because they just don't have the talent that they have in the past. They probably were seeded a little low as an 11 but they are a second tier team in the tournament and their average play this year showed that.

Most ridiculous argument I have ever heard.
The guy is asked to deliver for his team, does so in spades as the evidence and FACTS prove...and that makes him overrated?
Your "logic" is amazing.

I am not saying he sucks I just don't think he is the best player in College Basketball as many are saying he is. I think there are a lot of guys who were better than him.

9-7 yesterday. Worst first day ever. Lost 3 sweet 16 teams too.
Fortunately, my money bracket was slightly different and slightly better.
Would have been nice to see Michigan State come all the way back. Those #######s. UCLA is garbage.
Today HAS to be better.
I can't believe Utah State played so horribly against K-State. They played scared and it showed. Unless Pullen scores 30 a game, the kitty cats are not long for this tournament.

Oakland played a great game. Texas was uncharacteristically good from the FT line today or they would have lost.
Tennessee.....way to say, "Hey we love coach Pearl, don't fire him!".
KU only up by 4 at the half. WTF?

I have Roy's Boys out in round 2 anyway. I'd actually welcome that loss on my bracket!

Got a couple upsets yesterday with VCU and Marquette winning.
Just noticed the entries Sauve & Canuck, who are 1 & 2, didn't pick a Champion...

I know  . I was checking my bracket after the first games were finished and was wondering why it said I have a incomplete bracket. I had the score in for Ohio to win though!

I was just coming to post that. I had Ohio State beating Kansas 68-64 but forgot to click on Ohio State for the National Championship.
Sucks cause I was actually doing pretty good, had a perfect bracket in the East and 1 wrong in the West.
