You are truly one of the worst pieces of shit to ever post on this board. Start giving up your paycheck for reparations now and then you can shut the fuck up about your racist blasts.

Only thing that concerns me with Purdue is one of their key bench players got suspended (Barlow). But if Johnson and Moore play well it won't matter.

Can you imagine if they still have Robbie Hummell? Unreal.

Just saw the Mizzou bball team unload at the Sheraton in Crystal City (Arlington, VA). Saw Mike Anderson. Wouldn't fuck with him, that's for sure.

I took UConn in the West but with Irving coming back...I'm strongly thinking about flipping over to Duke. Regardless, I've got Ohio State winning the whole thing over Kansas. I have a funny feeling the Southeast could have a lower seed coming out. I took Florida but I think about half the teams in that region can move through. If BYU still had Davies, I probably would've taken them.

tOSU
UCONN (would love to pick Texas in this region, but FT shooting sucks mightily)
Kansas
Pitt (if this region had a true 3, not injury hampered BYU, i'd go against the #1)

Same here. Too many unknowns with them. They haven't beaten or even played a single major conference team of note.

Neither did St. Joe's in 04 but they came within a bucket and :01 of a Final Four appearance.

So if something "almost happens" once a decade then it's a good pick. Nice thinking.

i tried to love up SDSU, but i just don't see it. they remind me of the Oklahoma mid 80's teams that were vulnerable in the NCAA setting. and Fisher's space cool retro glasses are kinda lame.

I'd love to take ND, but can't get past our relative lack of success in the tourney. I do have us going to the Elite 8, though.

As for San Diego State, yet another person here who has them going out to Temple in the second round (what the NCAA now calls the third round).

i stopped filling out brackets years ago partly because i got tired of losing a 20 to someone's girlfriend but mostly because i'd invariably have to root for duke at some point.

My experience has been that the winner of most office pools usually is the secretary who makes her picks based on which team has the cuter coach.

Which is why I put very little thought into any of the brackets I fill out. I'm kind of like the Charles Barkley of the bracket world.

Wouldn't that imply she's actually watched a game, which is highly unlikely? Or is there some website that has all of the coach's pictures linked to the teams in the bracket? Are you making another wide-left attempt at humor here?

The only time this is cool is when it's YOUR girlfriend who wins the jackpot and treats you to dinner & drinks.

Twice, the winner was a secretary who made picks based on uniform colors, mascots, and whether she had ever visited where the teams were located. It took her less than 5 minutes to fill out the entire bracket. We laughed at her, but of course she got the last laugh.
So if you completely disregard seeding, wouldn't you inevitably pick some 14, 15, 16 seeds, etc? I never believe this stuff when people say it.

Every bracket I entered has tO$U, Dook and Kansas in the FF. I hated all the teams from the SE to make a run so I split between Florida, BYU and Wisconsin.

tO$U playing Kansas in all brackets.

2 out of 3 with the Buckeyes cutting down the nets.
