Baylor took their sweet time pulling away today. I have them in the Elite 8...that may have been a mistake!.

In that same bracket i am 5 for 5 in...i have them in the final 4

Like I said...must of (was) drinkin with some buds that night...IIRC, and I do, there was a certain young Hooters waitress or two distracting us all night...i now think on purpose.

St. Mary's blasting Richmond by 15 with 7+ minutes left...surprising to me.

Baylor looks like a team that could really come on as the tournament progresses, I like their athleticism.

St. Mary's has played a great second half. If they can carry their hot three point shooting into Villanova it could be another game down to the wire.

Villanova vs. Saint Mary's could be a really good game depending on which Villanova team decides to show up

Georgetown trail Ohio by 12 at the half....yikes!!

In the first 8 games I have a 7-1 record with Vanderbilt my one set back....stupid Murray State. Should have went with Obama who picked them to upset #4 Vanderbilt.

It will be interesting to see if the helpful reffing the big east always seems to get can overcome the terrible coaching that Georgetown has.

That is a large, large upset.

Anyone else see the shot Ali Faroukmanesh hit for Northern Iowa for the win against UNLV? What a shot.

It was a great shot.. I just get a kick out of the announcers saying how well-designed the play was when really it was well-defended and a desperation shot from way out.

I am looking good for now tied for 1st in the cp pool with the most possible points left. I knew Georgetown wasn't great, but I thought they'd win this week then get upset by Tennessee. I also pick Notre Dame to beat ODU, but I hade ND losing next round so not too bad yet.

The one that scares me now is I have Baylor in the final 4 as my sleeper final four team. So far from what I've seen in that bracket I like St. Mary's to make there way to the elite 8 both nova and baylor didn't impress me at all.

I have a few more upsets in my bracket especially with my homer Clemson pick to the elite 8.

Decent start for Montana. Down 8-7 with 2 free throws coming...and having much success going inside. That might open things up for Anthony Johnson!

So far, New Mexico can't stop Montana's bigs. Qvale and Selvig are doing whatever they want down low! Griz by 1!!

That was one area that UM thought they could exploit UNM. The Griz have some quality big men, and the Lobos are a bit undersized. Sounds like the watching tape has paid off so far!
