This year march madness already sucked before it started.
CBS let go Gus Johnson over contract dispute.

You'll be missed Gus :(

I submitted my worst bracket to this group, in fact in my WOKJ bracket, I had Syracuse winning the East instead of Florida St.

And I picked UCONN...ugh, I was so mad at all of the pundits dismissing Iowa St, but in my wokj poll, I still picked the Huskies despite my belief that they should have not been in the tournament altogether.

UConn was good enough to be in the tourney. They won 20 games and had a very tough schedule. I wasn't expecting much from them. They had a lot of talent but had no leadership on the court. Lamb and Napier never stepped up to replace Walker who they really missed.

The Southern Miss.- Kansas St. game was great and then the second half of the Texas- Cincinnati game was pretty good. There is a good game on right now between Creighton and Alabama.

Crieghton/Alabama just showed some horrible late-game basketball. Bad miss FTs by Creighton, horrible mis-managing of timeouts by Alabama.



It was still a close game and Creighton played great to take the lead (the missed FTs were the only thing bad about them). I am not sure what Alabama was doing, especially with the time out.

We have only had two upsets, although St. Bonneveture is giving Florida State all they can handle.

My brackets are screwed too. I didn't think Norfolk could keep with Missouri in a high scoring game. I actually like the Marquette-Murray State winner in that side of the bracket.

Missouri shot over 50% from the floor and made 13 three's, so Norfolk St definitely won this one instead of Missouri losing it. Big Congrats to them even if it screwed up all my brackets. Norfolk St lost by only 2 to Marquette back in Nov, so they're legit.

I still can't see them getting past the Marquette-Murray State winner. Also, Leigh is giving Duke all kinds of trouble right now.

Knew we're not a great team this year. Couldn't stop dribble penetration or pick-and-poll all the season long, nor could grab a defensive rebound when needed; way too dependent on guards play, just like Missouri was. Still the feeling sucks. We need to recruit another Elton Brand or Sheldon Williams; heck, even Brian Zoubek would be nice.

At least I'm thinking River will be back for another year; he is good, but certainly didn't improve his draft position all that much and still has a lot of things he could work on. Then we'll have pretty much everyone back except for Mile Plumlee.

So I was tempted to pick Duke losing in 1st round ... but went for 2nd round upset.

As for Mizzou ... goodness gracious. I'm going for last place it seems!

We could have another upset with South Florida over Temple. I don't think Xavier is going to beat Notre Dame, and Kansas should win their game.


South Florida pulled off the upset, another upset. Notre Dame is hanging up to a one point lead with 30 seconds left.

And with that Notre Dame falls as well. They really played terrible in the last minute, especially with that awful pass with the lead. So, that makes 7 upsets today what a crazy day.

Anything can happen, so you never know. I am sure they will have at least one tough matchup here.
