"I don't think my bracket is busted quite yet" thread

Funny thing about Oklahoma.

I was going to pick ND State but then I heard some asshat on ESPN radio who worked in Vegas and was giving advice to always check the sports lines before making your picks because it is free info. And since the Oklahoma spread was the biggest of all the 12 vs 5 games, I decided to go against that one and pick Oklahoma. So the only 12 I had was Harvard when I really wanted this one too.

Damn fucker.

I think it makes sense to check the line, though. Then again, I'm certainly not tearing it up. And if Manhattan, a 16.5 point underdog, holds on to its narrow lead over Louisville with four minutes left, then my bracket it very much broken.

I am 10-6. I had Oklahoma going Sweet16. My other incorrects I picked teams losing in Round of 32

I'm screwed already. Finished. OVER.

Thanks, Ohio teams. Thanks.

Picking your own team in March is such a dilemma. I end up picking Wisconsin every year (FF this year), and every year it bites me in the ass when they lose to some nobody school.

11-5 yesterday, but I didn't pick any of the teams that lost yesterday to advance in the next round, so my bracket, though showing too much red, is still hanging on. OT losses by NC State and Oklahoma, along with tOSU's one point loss, had me pretty pissed, though!

I think the Duke loss just screwed a lot of people !!!!!

I don't think that anyone in the SportsHoopla group picked Mercer. I know I picked Duke to win three more games than they won, though. Ouch.

S16 still in tact, lets go Tennessee

If your Elite 8 is still intact consider yourself lucky.

Also, if you picked all upper seeds to win, all of your Elite 8 would still be alive.

bigtime lol. It was my best start ever though.

I have Louisville in the Final 4; St Louis I had losing Round of 64. So, if St Louis wins, my bracket will be busted.

Same for me. UL will take over in the 2nd half.

The UConn/Nova game is a huge game for me. I have UConn.

Also Syracuse/Dayton. I would love for Dayton to win considerinf I had Ohio St in the Sweet 16.

Also Oregon/Wisconsin. I have Wisky, tough matchup for them.

My elite 8 is still intact but I am really having my druthers about picking UVA over Michigan State and I also have Kentucky beating Wichita State too. But I still have a slugger's chance.

Pathetic showing by Louisville right now, my Champ in one of my 2 bracket pools.
