  • OneBuckeye
    I predicut Bababooey for the win!

    I'm voting for Ty Webb. Anybody who drafted Dallas Lauderdale must know something I don't know.

  • stephen3108
    I'll put my vcash on AZ.
  • SportsAndLady
    Ahhhh, 2.33 average seeed, 58 ppg...slow and steady wins the race..
  • Iliketurtles
    S&L it's going to suck for you when Kansas gets upset in the 2nd round ;).
  • Crimson streak
    I like my team especially the kid from Richmond I think he will put up big numbers and I think they take down vandy
  • Laley23
    Ill be good if my brackets play out...I have my doubts though, lol.

    Zags in Elite 8 (Gray)
    Florida playing 3 games (Irving and Macklin)
    UNC in Finals (Barnes)
    Tennessee in 2 games (Hopson)
    Pittsburgh in Final Four (Robinson)

    Unfortunately, im only confident in 1 of those results, and thats Pitt in the Final Four, and to a smaller extent Florida in the Sweet 16.
  • Iliketurtles
    Here are my guys and listed is the furthest I think their teams are capable of going. Im pretty confident in Texas, Kansas, and UAB making as far as I have them as for the others if they dont make it that far they will get bounced before the round I have listed at. Which still I think will put me in good shape.

    (3)Jimmer Fredette, G BYU 28.5 PPG (Final 4)
    (4)Tristan Thompson, F Texas 18.0 PPG (Sweet 16)
    (1)Tyrel Reed, G Kansas 10.0 PPG (Championship game)
    (6)Chris Wright, G Georgetown 13.1 PPG (Sweet 16)
    (5)Kevin Jones, F West Virginia 13.1 PPG (Sweet 16)
    (12)Jamarr Sanders, G UAB 17.7 PPG (Round of 64)
    Combined Average: 100.4 PPG
    Average Seed: 5.17

  • september63
    Wow. I need Kansas State to win several games. (I expect they will)
  • Iliketurtles
    Is someone gonna try and get lotz to vbookie this thing like they had for who the winner of the college football pickem playoffs would be? And didn't bababooey win that too? All I remember is he beat me to get into the finals lol.
  • Tiger2003
    Justin said he is giving Vcash to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.
  • GOONx19
    In the two contests since Thanksgiving (Bowl Challenge and Super Bowl), I've made the final four of one and won the other. Hopefully I can keep it alive, but I need upsets from Marquette, Purdue, and Michigan.
  • Iliketurtles
    Ah yeah that's right still the people who aren't playing could bet on who they feel would win. Tiger you should talk to lotz about getting it set up we all know how well you too get along when it comes to vcash stuff :).

    I placed second. I'm hitching my wagon to Irving, if he doesn't play I'm probably screwed but I figured I could chance it with a 4th round pick.
  • DA isn't having fun
    CC we definitely made the decision to go 6 rounds last night..hell we did half that round last night lol

    S&l
  • Iliketurtles
    ccrunner you posted in the tourny discussion thread 2 minutes after S&L said we were definitely doing 6 rounds lol. I agree with you though that it really doesnt hurt to let you have the dude from Wofford.
  • Tiger2003
    Lotz will be putting up a thread in the VBookie. Check got it.
  • Iliketurtles

    Nice I'm putting all my vCash on the dude who picked Jimmer!
  • Pick6
    if theres a thread in the vbookie about which one of us will win, i dont see it?

    Just read on SKip Bayless' twitter that Kyrie is going to try and play round 1.
  • GOONx19
    I changed it for you.
  • Laley23
    Yeah, I heard Kyrie is gonna be back for the opening rounds. Still not convinced this is a good move. We watched Nolan Smith develop into a NPOY candidate and favorite when Irving went down. At this point, its 50-50 whether this actually helps Duke or hurts them, imo.
