Yea, I am not a Pitt fan, and my heart said NO!!!!!, but my head said yes. I followed my head, and was wrong! Very wrong!

Re: NCAA Tournament Challenge

8/9s are a toss up usually and their next game is with #1 so they won't be long anyway. Of course I picked Pitt to knock off Gonzaga! :(

The Oregon OK St game will be interesting. Oregon is WAY better than a 12 seed. They got totally screwed.

Re: NCAA Tournament Challenge

Oregon is going for the big upset. And southern U is hanging with Gonzaga. Wouldn't that be a kick in the petunias if Southern U pulls it off.........

Re: NCAA Tournament Challenge

Oregon laying the smack on OK St. Marquette bailed me out. Could get ugly later.

I thought Gonzaga was overrated. That is why I had Pitt beating them. Hope it happens.

Way to go Ducks! Go Pac-12!!!!

So much for ESPN's prediction that Pac-12 was going 0-5.

Re: NCAA Tournament Challenge

Bummer, Akron lost point guard ----suspended...picked up on drug charges
starter gets the flu and gives it to his roommate, another starter, both on IV's, not playing
4th starter has back spasms and can't play
Much better team than the one that played tonight.

Re: NCAA Tournament Challenge

I didn't watch the Akron game, but thought the Zips were a better team then the score. I had picked them. Time to chew out my scouts. Add Harvard and it's time to fire the scouts.:eek::D

Then UNLV losses to Cal. Heck, I've already lost a team in the Elite 8 game, 1 Sweet 16 game and a team in the 16......:facepalm:

The Zips WERE a better team than that, but as already mentioned, with one starter, their point guard and arguably the best player on the team, suspended, the other guard and the back-up guard out with the flu, and the back-up center not playing because of back spasms, they were in a world of hurt from the start. It is hard to play to your potential with nothing but the bench! YIKES. Felt so bad for them. Was glad the dogs were called off or the score could have been a whole lot uglier!
