Ya, I have Baylor going to the championship in one of mine so I know what you're talking about.

Then, if they get to the Elite 8, they have to face either a Villanova team that causes so many mismatches, a Baylor team that can light it up when they're right, an unbelieveably hot Notre Dame team, or another solid mid-major in Richmond/St. Mary's. Given their recent reputation, expect the Blue Devils to slip up at some point, paving the way for someone else to sneak in.

Also, I hate the play-in game. Period. Anyone else think that they should just do away with one at-large bid? Would anyone really miss it?

Yeah, after one day of games, I'm just gonna pencil Duke into the Final Four right now. So far the most effective looking team in the South Region has been St. Mary's.

damn, my bracket already sucks.

ohio looking like the 3 seed against georgetown

What's up with G'Town??:confused::confused::confused:

If Georgetown loses im screwed right now im 6-2

One game=the best way to judge a team.

Kansas getting a fight out of Lehigh

G'town, 'nova, Marquette, Notre Dame

Not a strong showing by the Big East on Day 1

1-3 with the one win the team being outplayed. Yeah, that conference is expecting a better showing from Syracuse, West Virginia, Pitt, and Louisville

I've only missed two so far; missed the St. Mary's and Ohio victories.

I'm hardly judging anyone on one game. The Robert Morris game just proved what I already knew: Villanova is a completely mediocre team is Scotty Reynolds isn't doing anything. Morris held him to 2-15 shooting.

If Duke doesn't win that region, Coach K should quit.

I missed three games last night after starting 10-for-10

(Georgetown, Marquette, and San Diego St. But who didn't have the Hoyas winning that game? Ohio was great looking and scrappy in their MAC playoffs games...but who woulda thunk they could drill a perennial powerhouse team. Big East is looking really suspect this tourney after being highly touted as the best conf all year. Maybe all the top teams are just tired and worn out from beating up on each other for two months.)
