I wouldn't call Clemson a choke job, they over-achieved this year. They were unranked at the start of the year and played well untill the end. Next year I think they will be better. They have almost everyone coming back.

Booker is a beast, and I hear his brother is recruited for next year and is suppose to be just as good.

The only good senior gone is KC Rivers. I think Clemson will finally get oliver a win next year at the tourney.

Western Kentucky looking to pull off an upset and beat Illinois. Although my husband is a UK fan, the Wildcats didn't make it into the tournament and are going to play their second game in the NIT, so he's really happy that WK is prolly going to win vs Illinois.

14/16. Missed Western Kentucky and Michigan.
The South has started off very poorly for me.

15/16.. Better then I thought. Missed LSU, but I doubt they will get passed NC so I its not a huge loss. I usually have my bracket busted on the first day..

Not a good first day for my bracket but all my losers I only had winning in the first round so no major damage. Can't believe I stupidly bought into Miss St. Sure they were playing a weak Washington team but should have known better than to back a SEC team.

Surprised that Villanova was able to come back. I heard some hype about them in the tournament but don't really get it. They are so streaky and reliant on excellent shooting that they are a perfect team to get beat in a one and done style tournament. I know everyone loves the Big East and they get bumped up becaise of that but this is a team that could lose to any team in the country on any night of the year.

You're not the only one that bought into Miss. St.

13/16 is what I expect usually on the first two days, so I'm right on track.

Have a feeling today is just going to destroy me though. Kansas losing is crucial.

Very tight end to end in the Kansas - North Dakota State game.
Though I have picked Kansas to win the game I'm heavily supporting North Dakota State.

I think I'm the only person in the CP group to take NDSU. I might be the only person in the world to take NDSU, actually.

Edit: Damn, looks like Kansas is gonna take this one. Hopefully Utah State upsets Marquette, and Tennessee loses so I don't lose any ground.

NDSU had no business being a 14 seed. None.

Woodside is one of the best players in the country. He'll have a shot in the NBA.
