Yea. Pitt losing and other Elite 8 teams I had losing really screwed mine. :/

Fun season though.

Yes I Agree been a good first 2 rnds,
I like Davidson and am not to surprised that they are doing well, they played a very tough non conferance scedule and were close in alot of those early season losses ( hell they opened the season and lost by only 4 pnts to
Carolina ) And you know Currys dad is proud of his son, this will be a very good team over the next 2 years as you know Curry isn't going to go Pro early he still looks like he belongs in High School, hell middle school at times

My Tarheels are looking good and I think the early season injuries they suffered helped this team out in terms of getting their bench players more playing time

Yea, the tarheels won't be playing people that will give up 100+ points very much longer. I hope the 70+ they are giving up to these class B teams won't get them to be relaxed on D again. :/

Just a tidbit...one team in history has scored 100+ in the first 2 game of the tourney and won the championship...UCLA in the 60's.

According to an ESPN show that I watched on Selection Sunday....

...Everytime that UNC was selected as the #1 overall selection previously, they went on to win the National Championship that year as well.

So...

I was 20-12 in the 1st Round, and 12-4 in the 2nd Round.

This leaves me 3 teams left in my Final 4 Selection, and 6 teams still in my round of 8.


Ideally, I should be good in just about the average pool... but on ESPN, I'm in the ~80% bracket among the millions of submitted brackets.

Hmm..you sure it was 9 seed? The lowest seed to ever win that I know of is 8. Villanova in 1985.
