DatDudeCP finally dropped one. Stephen F. Austin took out West Virginia. A 14 seed eats a 3 seed

I guess your mouse slipped. LOL Those 12 and counting lower seeds beating the higher seeds show that seeding is a very inexact science. There is always TC - 2nd Chance starting with the Sweet 16..

One more under-seeded winner. NIU with a half court shot at the buzzer to beat Texas.

I had Temple and Pitt. Thought Pitt was going to blow out Wisconsin the way the first few minutes were going.

There is a lot of parity in college basketball with kids leaving early. So hard to tell how good a team is these days. Also, teams peaking and having good games at the right time cause this.

Of course when I pick MI for the upset, even tho they've been playing bad, they lose to ND. Figured it's tourney time and MI would step up their game.....Not.....

I had to look at my bracket, I am usually one of those anyone but ND types, but for some reason ND is on my bracket. Next thing you know I will be cheering for the Tide in football. :eek:

No jab, but ND just won a squeeker.
Yeah, I was rooting for SFA in that one. Not a ND fan. I'm talking about earlier when my Iowa Hawkeyes got squished by Villanova. Turned out a redshirt freshman walk-on was the only Iowa player interested in basketball today.
