I have a very conservative bracket this year. I missed on so many upset picks in previous years, it made me feel cautious.

 

[RamblinRed]

Somewhat ironic that Hagins shot to send to overtime came from the bracket logo on the floor, since it caused so many brackets to likely blow up.

Committee really stuck it to Seton Hall. Matched them up against a team close to them according to KenPom, sent them to play in the altitude of Denver and the game wound up starting after 11PM ET. They looked awful.

After a tight first half Syracuse laid it on Dayton.
This likely won't last but Middle TN State opened the game on a 15-2 run vs Mich St. It currently 17-7.

Archie Miller obviously can't coach a lick. His team can't even make layups. He's best served to move on to a lower tier ACC squad with a lot of promise if he wants to sell high.

Another $100K to GT's coffers.

MTSU still up by 6 at half. That would bust my bracket.
Hawaii beating Cal. I wish I'd noticed the news about their leading scorer being out when picking.

 

[CuseJacket]

MTSU looks like they belong and like the 1st half wasn't a fluke. We'll see 2nd half.

Jaylen Brown just fouled out. Hawaii should pull this out. I would have still picked Cal 1st round in this pool even after the injury announcement. In my lone upset pool I had Hawaii before the injury announcement. Have Hawaii over South Dakota State in the round of 32 in that one.

Hawaii players with a lot of fouls and Jaylen brown fouling out probably helps them...he had 1 rebound 7 turnovers and 4 points

Remember when charles barkley said the Pac-12 was gonna surprise some people... guess he meant surprise us with how quickly all of their teams fell out of the tournament... now is the time to bet on the first 16 vs 1 seed upset.

also... is this about to be the worst tournament for Izzo ever?

 

[jeffgt14]

Well you could tell the Pac12 was a bust from looking at their road records alone. I wanted to have Oregon losing in the 2nd round but it’s impossible to take that pick because you never know who’s going to win between the 8 or 9 seed so it’s easier just to advance the 1 seeds to the Sweet 16 every time.

Also, if MTSU pulls this out I’m shredding my bracket and going down to campus and partying with everyone there.

Sorry @RyanS12. I love this game though. That was awesome.

Have fun. I knew this was coming when they knocked off the 49ers in CUSA tourney.

 

[CuseJacket]

Well, that certainly helps Syracuse GT's bank account. MTSU actually looked like they belong today. Almost as big of an upset as Mizzou/Norfolk State in 2012.

South Carolina/Coppin St was huuuuuuge at the time. SCE had some players that year. BJ McKie, Melvin Watson and another really good player I forget.

 

[Peacone36]

If you picked that upset that doesn't make you smart. You're a moron.

 

[kg01]

I officially hate MichSt.

 

[KeystoneJacket]

Tough one to take as a soon to be Temple alum. Clear push off gets Iowa a game winning tip in at the buzzer.

 

[jeffgt14]

So essentially if you are one of the 6 perfect brackets left, you’re a very lucky moron.

yeah that was ridiculous.... 0 percent chance they call it in that situation tho.
