Men's

6:30 PM, TBS, Louisville
GO 5 San Diego State (29-6) > 1 Alabama (31-5) -7.5 :puke-left:
Would be an epic win.

7:15 PM, CBS, Kansas City, MO
Go 5 Miami (27-7) > 1 Houston (33-3) -7.5, but I don't hate Houston.
Good luck, O Really.

9:00 PM, TBS, Louisville
GO 15 Princeton (23-8) > 6 Creighton (23-12) -9.5 :thumbdown:

9:45 PM, CBS, Kansas City, MO
GO 2 Texas (28-8) -4.0 > 3 Xavier (27-9), my only fav to win, ut-oh.
The only game following the seeding script.

Women's

2:30 PM, ESPN, Greenville, SC
9 Miami (21-12) > 4 Villanova (30-6) -4.5
Go O Really Go. Kids can get drunk, take a nap, watch the Men's game.
Miami 70 > Villanova 65. Woo-hoo.

5:00 PM, ESPN, Greenville, SC
3 LSU (30-2) -5.0 > 2 Utah (27-4)
The only game following the seeding script.
LSU 66 > Utah 63. Phew, after coming back from 9 down with 2:30 left Utah missed 2 FTs that would have given it the lead with 0:04 left.

7:30 PM, ESPN, Seattle
Go 6 Colorado (25-8) > 2 Iowa (28-6) -5.5, but I don't hate Iowa.
Colorado 77 < Iowa 87.
My day's streak ends, but I ain't crying.


10:00 PM, ESPN, Seattle
GO 5 Louisville (25-11) -2.5 > 8 Ole Miss (25-8)
Ole Miss 62 < Louisville 72. Nice.

2 favs, 2 underdogs.
3-1 on the day.
My bracket: 1/4 on the day, 35/52 overall.
The leader is 46/52 and she along with many others went 4/4 on the day. :crazy:
My rank dropped from #297,794 to #318,070.

My rank leapt up bigly from #1,323,919 to #563,547 :wtf: - UConn, TX and O Really's SDSU. :thumbup:

Looks like Miller was right. There's no way he could have been the shooter.

I've never pulled for Miami, but I love underdogs, especially underdogs who win by 14.

Women's

11:30 AM, ESPN, Greenville, SC
GO 2 Maryland (27-6) -5.0 > 3 Notre Dame (27-5)
Following the seed script. Go Terps!
Notre Dame 59 < Maryland 76
That's a proper turtle-spanking of a top tier team!
:happy-cheerleaderkid:


2:00 PM, ESPN, Greenville, SC (unfair!)
GO 4 UCLA (27-9) > 1 South Carolina (34-0) -16.5 ut-oh
Following the seed script #2.
Halftime: UCLA 15 :roll: , South Carolina 25 :puke-left:
Final: UCLA 43 < South Carolina 59 :puke-left: :puke-left: Oh well, UCLA was going to lose the Monday game, anyhow. GO TERPS!


4:00 PM, ABC, Seattle
Go 2 UConn (31-5) -10.0 :thumbup: > 3 Ohio State (27-7)
Following the seed script #3.
Ohio State 73 > UConn 61. No biggie, UConn has had dominating success. This was its first Sweet 16 loss since 2005. That's incredible.

6:30 PM, ESPN2, Seattle
Go 1 Virginia Tech (29-4) EVEN odds > 4 Tennessee (25-11)
Following the seed script #4! The Women's seeders are much better that the Men's.

Men's

6:09 PM, TBS, NYC
GO 9 Florida Atlantic (34-3) > 3 Kansas State (26-9) -2.0 narrow spread
THE remaining Cinderella.

8:49 PM, TBS, Las Vegas
3 Gonzaga (31-5) vs 4 UConn (28-8) -2.5. Go MM.

Neither of these games help my bracket. A Texas win tomorrow is my last and final hope for any points.
