What have you been really wrong about so far?
-
Ironman92Two big ones for me.
I really thought Louisville was going to definately advance until Kansas and would have a very good chance to beat them and move on to as far as the championship game......not only did Morehead St beat them....then Morehead State got creamed by a 12 seed.
My other big error was with BYU.....I'm a big Jimmer fan but I just thought he would be slowed down by an athletic player in Rd 1 or definately Rd 2....but he looks unstoppable and BYU looks GREAT. -
karen lotzSourheast regional, looks like an atomic bomb was dropped on it.

Ironman92atomic bomb.......an oftne used term back in the day

GOONx19I have no Southeast region left.

Same here. -
enigmaaxI was really wrong about filling out a bracket. Every single one of them.
-
killer_ewokJust about everything.

ironman02Southeast Region for me too. Out of the four teams left in that region, I only picked ONE of them. Luckily that one team is Florida, who I have winning the region.
Definitely surprised by BYU. I thought Gonzaga would beat them, but it seems like the Jimmers are playing really well heading into the Sweet 16. -
MulvaI knew that the Southeast was going to be brutal. My prediction on the "bold predictions" thread was that at least 3 double-digit seeds would win games in that region. It didn't happen (only Gonzaga), so there's actually been less shenanigans there than I thought there would be.
I had Penn State over SDSU into the sweet 16. Picked X into the sweet 16 too, even though I thought Marquette would beat them (took Marquette in 7 or 8 of my 10 online brackets, but not the pool I actually paid to enter). -

I had Gonzaga and Utah State going to the Sweet 16. Had ODU winning and even thought about possibly picking Belmont. Things definitely ended up a little less chaotic than I expected since Florida, BYU, and Wisconsin are still alive. I ended up taking Florida to the Final Four because I was worried that Pitt would choke, and sure enough, they did.Mulva;717994 wrote:I knew that the Southeast was going to be brutal.

That's funny because my entire bracket looks like Japan.karen lotz wrote:Southeast regional, looks like an atomic bomb was dropped on it.
I might as well have picked The Fab Five to win my bracket. By far the worst I've ever done, even though I still have 13 Sweet 16s left. Every team is gone in the Southeast, I had Izzo in the Elite Eight, Pitt in the Final Four and, worst of all, my national runner-up lost to fucking Morehead State in the first round. Butler to the Sweet 16 is my only bright spot and I didn't pick that. I just was happy to see it happen. I'm tired of Pitt underperforming in the NCAAs and therefore glad Dixon got it handed to him in the final seconds. -
mhs95_06Southwest had 4 double digit seeds win (10,11,12,13), which meant one of them had to get to the sweet 16!

If I were the Aflak duck, I might agree. So, what's the buffer zone for a mushroom plume that terminates 80,000? Just the 66 years, then? Lol.karen lotz wrote:Probably a little too soon on that one. -
friendfromlowryI was wrong for having Pitt and Georgetown in the final four.
-
swamisezAlso had gonzaga and Utah st in sweet sixteen. Thankfully I have Florida in the ff. So the bracket is still in tact.

TOUCHE and made me actually lol
As for my bracket:
The good: Richmond to sweet 16 over Morehead State. Big East has recently severely underperformed in tourney, so I had the 2 biggest inconsistencies to me (Louisville this year and Pitt in general) losing early.
The bad: Only 6 Elite 8 teams left and one of my final four gone.
The ugly: 0-4 on sweet 16s in SE, I had KSU and MSU meeting up in Elite 8. Ugh. -
slingshot4everI had St Johns in the elite 8. However, I had them losing to Wisconsin and their road got a little easier with Pitts loss yesterday. I correctly picked Richmond to be in the sweet 16.
-
Pick6My biggest fuck up so far is having MIchigan State make a run to the elite 8. Was never high on Pittsburgh but had them going out the next round.
-
Laley23-Pitt in FF (though, that wont hurt me as most people in pool have them in at least E8)
-BYU...or Gonzaga, either way. Thought the Zags would be better and BUY would be worse. Have Zags in E8
-Belmont and Morehead. Had Morehead winning and Belmont losing, then woke up Thursday and switched. Go with the GUT!
-Xavier in S16. Just laid an absolute egg
-PSU, but I chalk it up to David Jacksons injury. They were up 20-11 when he went down to Temple. I think they are in S16 without the injury
-What I have picked that looks good thus far? Well not a whole lot, but Ill be looking good in the brackets if UCONN and UNC make the Final Four. UCONN has looked very good, so I like that pick. UNC, well their defense was atrocious, but they should sitll be alive after today without much trouble. -
HereticEVERY DAMN THING!
At least it feels this way, as it seems every game either fucks me up on is on the verge of doing so until the one I picked finally pulls it out in, say, double OT. You might as well put a no-fly zone over my Southeast, though, with all the bombing done there. Florida beating BYU is the ONLY game I can still score with there. Southwest is better, but still sucks with Louisville and another Sweet 16 team gone. But at least there and the other two regions, I don't have long-term damages from losses. -

Big GainHow good the Big East was. The talking heads had me fooled.
