Despite an outstanding performance from Marcus Smart 23 pts 13 reb 7 ast and 6stl.
He and his OKS Cowboys go home in the 2nd round for the 2nd year in a row

mixery · 22-03-2014 12:44am

Interesting game between Oklahoma State and Gonzaga. Refereeing was a bit of a joke, and it ended with 61 fouls
! Zags were in the lead throughout though. They'll be going up against Arizona if I'm not mistaken. I'll watch it just for the battle of centers.

Dublin Red Devil · 22-03-2014 2:39am

Fecking George Washing let me down

Offside · 22-03-2014 2:43am

Great game between Providence and North Carolina. This kid Bryce Cotton got hot, scored 36, UNC cruising up 9 or so and Providence go on an 11 - 0 run in second half to set up grandstand finish. Carolina managed it just about, but was a great performance from Cotton. I'm a big Carolina fan so was a nervy second half but great game of basketball. Some huge plays from both sides in what turned into a bit of a shoot out at the end. After gloating about the Duke loss to Mercer earlier thought we might be going the same way, won't tempt faith again!!

Will keep my eye on Cotton, not sure if he has any draft prospects (he's a senior), but could do no wrong tonight

Dublin Red Devil · 22-03-2014 2:54am

Terrible day for my bracket, In an attempt to gain points I went with George Washington, SF Austin and Nebraska. All were beaten, OKS and Duke lost aswell
Stanford also beat New Mexico. Just as disaster

Offside · 22-03-2014 3:07am

Not one bracket made it past the first round of the Buffett $1 billion challenge, March madness personified the last two days! Would have expected a few first round perfects at least. 3 left in the ESPN bracket comp. Only saw this thread late and would have joined in with yas otherwise

Dublin Red Devil · 22-03-2014 3:30am

The day might jut jet be saved. SFA comback to take VCU to OT. Figures crossed

Edit: SFA WIN

Dublin Red Devil · 22-03-2014 3:59am

Wow. Could the biggest upset in basketball history be on the cards. 16th seed Coastal Carolina in the lead right now over 1 seed Virginia.

Dublin Red Devil · 22-03-2014 12:17pm

I'd say Dayton have torn through every bracket around! And what does 'Best Score' mean in the standings there?

Its the best score you can have based on your selections. You ge more points if you predict lower seeds to beat hight seeds in the tournament

Okay that makes sense. Safe to say I'm one of the more conservative ones so! :cool:

Wow. Stanford just about edge it by Kansas, looks like the next time we'll see Wiggins play will be in the NBA!

Unbelievible. This tournament is throwing up more questions than answers about the some top seeded teams. I had Kansas going to the final. Madness:eek:

Only reason I didn't have Kansas going to the final was because Florida stood in the way. I'm really starting to have faith in Kentucky overcoming Wichita State now.

Yeah I know, but I still love seeing the top-seeded teams fall :P

Great game here UK v WS

Dublin Red Devil · 24-03-2014 2:05am

the party is over for Witchita State. UK advance to the sweet 16.

Dublin Red Devil · 26-03-2014 8:59pm

For argument sake. Would any of you change your prediction for National champion at this point. Pre-Sweet 16?

annelin · 28-03-2014 12:56am

nice

Dublin Red Devil · 28-03-2014 1:02am

Dayton winning this is bad for my bracket. Happy Wisconsin are up against Baylor but its early days right now

Dublin Red Devil · 28-03-2014 3:19am

That win for Wisconsin puts me on top of the leader board by just 1 point. Myself and Connor have the same picks Florida to beat UCLA and Arizona to beat SDS so it will stay that way for tonight

Tomorrow There are some real potential upset. I wouldn't rule out any of the lowers seeds winning their game's

Dublin Red Devil · 31-03-2014 12:26am

Fck Me.

Final 4

Florida v UCONN

Wisconsin v UK

kingcobra · 31-03-2014 12:36am

Great finish to the Kentucky game, unbelievable to see a team of mainly freshmen to make it to the final four.

UK's success could blow the draft in a new direction. The stock od Randle is rising and James Young is rising too. Also If the Harrisons win a national championship, their hardly going to go back to college when they are project lottery picks

kingcobra · 05-04-2014 10:13pm

Judging by the standings, it looks like if Florida win the National Championship Monday night I'll be atop of the standings

Bump

Almost that time of the year again

Is it a simple case of re-activating the bracket league from last year?

Think DRD set it up last year and afaik he's been banished from these parts. Someone might need to set up a new one this year.

In related news, Kentucky have gone 31-0 for the regular season, incredible, but not surprising, they've an incredibly deep roster this year.

To add to that, none of their players have averaged more than 25 minutes per game. They're going to be extremely hard to beat although there's going to be incredibly high expectations of them.

I'm still game for this year. Haven't kept track of what's going on to much in CBB but I've a week to get up to speed!

I'll set up a boards bracket once the bracket is released and will sticky to the top of forum

Is it limited to one bracket per head? No hassle if so, just checking if I am missing something in the options somewhere.

padraig_f · 18-03-2015 2:08pm

Guesses Picks made.

Final call, my phone tells me the deadline for entries is 16:15 today.

All done, 13 in. Tie breaker might be crucial as there are a lot of Kentucky predictions.

GoldFour4 · 21-03-2015 12:49am

Yup, it's tough out there....

After 24 NCAA March Madness games played, just 24 perfect brackets remain in ESPN's Tournament Challenge, out of 11.57 million.
That's 0.0002 percent.
