How's your bracket?

Without a doubt the worst and most frusterating tourny day of my life.  I had so many close calls: Pacifc, SDSU, Xavier, Winthrop, UNC Wilmington.  At this point I just wanna kill someone.  That being said I still am ok, because I didn't lose anything too big.  As long as my final four stays in tact, I'll be good to go.

 

I took the other route. Instead of picking numerous upsets, missing all or most of them, but not losing anything major, I decided to do a few semi-crazy ones and end up losing a Sweet 16 and an Elite 8. I like your route a bit better. :P

 

I'm not happy because I was a couple of bounces away from being 14-2 without losing any Sweet 16 teams or further.

I finished the day at 12-4. I lost UNCW, Marquette, Oklahoma and Nevada. Had Wichita State and Texas A&M.

All 5 brackets are between 11 and 13 wins, only Nevada gone in the sweet 16 on 2 brackets.

Amatuers. :lol:

 

(I gotta talk s*** because I'm going to look like s*** after today probably). I never would have thought I'd be 15-1 after day one, that's for sure.

after the late games I am still only down 1....today should be an interesting one though....couple of upsets i have....Kent St over Pitt, NC State over Cal, N Iowa over Georgetown....so we will still see if I am only down 1....anyways GO BUCKS!!!

Nevada, Marquette, and UNC Wilmington got me so far. Otherwise Im all good.

The big one I picked was George Mason over Michigan State today. In retrospect, I shouldn't have done that, because MSU usually plays well in the tournament.

 

Other then that I didn't have too many upsets today if I remember right. Most of my upset picks were yesterday and they happened, amazingly enough.

Kent State and Southern Illinois are my big upset picks today. And if Northwestern State beats Iowa, I'll be kicking myself for not having the balls to pick it.

Nah your cool dude. MSU will fall against UNC even if they beat George Mason, that's the best kind of upset pick you can make.

I lost 2 games so far, Nevada and Seton Hall. Other than that im looking pretty good. Im sure today will change my luck though.

This is my best first day ever, 15-1 with my only loss being Nevada.

Now we will see how day 2 goes!

yea, I had UNC coming out of there anyway. So we'll see.

15/16 I got the Tennessee-Winthrop game wrong :bang

 

So it was a VERY good day for me. I'll probably get beat up today.

11-16 here. Had a s***ty morning but nailed the evening games. I knew Syracuse was going down in that game. Shoulda picked a second 5-12 though.

I would probably have picked G. Mason if Skinn didn't feel it necessary to punch people in the nuts. I'm just not sold on this MSU team even if they are usually a very good tourny team.

My bracket looks great outside of that lower left corner. :P I knew that Oakland bracket was going to screw me over because I don't like any of the teams in the bottom half of it.

12-4

 

Picked Nevada instead of Montana, Seton Hall instead of Wichita St., NC-Wilmington instead of Geo Washington and the Orangemen instead of Texas A&M.

 

My Oakland bracket is nice and clean as now.

over/under on how many times I have to hear that applebee's song today: 100

11 right after the first day, i really wanted to pick A&M but just didnt and marquette just blew it for me, although only one sweet 16 team gone so far so good

Iowa is sweet 16 victim #2 for me, still not doing too badly though

I have 14 of my 16 sweet 16 teams, but only have 3 of my final four and one of my final 2 alive.. stupid Iowa.
