MARCH MADNESS 2014 - NCAA Tourney Thread

• reclegend22

  

  Picks I like:
  
  North Dakota State to the Sweet 16
  Dayton over Ohio State
  Providence over UNC
  New Mexico over Embiid-less Kansas in round two (Steve Alford being more than a thousand miles away from the team in the first round this year should help the Lobos finally get over the hill)
  Creighton over Arizona in the Elite Eight
  
  As for the biggest potential first round upset, I didn't pick it, but I think Western Michigan takes Syracuse to the wire. And I've already stated my feelings on Nova. I like UConn to advance into the Sweet 16.

  Also UK takes down this year's first #1.

  The live stream from ncaa.com won't let you stream it to your tv. Damn it. Trying it go from ipad to HDTV. Message comes up saying Airplay isn't allowed. Dumb.

  Wisconsin is not having a stellar start. American up 6 early.
• Mulva

  

  Rough stretch for Kaminsky. Gets robbed of 2 on basket interference and then a questionable foul on the other end for his 2nd.
• reclegend22

  

  Given my status here as a Wisconsin super fan, I am not surprised in the least that American is playing like a national title contender.
  
  I only have Wisconsin going as far as the Sweet 16, but this is where I'd officially cut ties with Bo Ryan. Come on, man, win this fuckin' game.
• Laley23

  

  They will win by 20 lol. Next game could get dicey if they struggle to score, but I expect them to advance to the S16 relatively with ease.
• friendfromlowry

  Anyone else pick UD over OSU? OSU will probably get down by about 17 here soon then come back and win in the last few minutes.

  I have Creighton beating Wisconsin this year -- in a matchup of two offensive teams, Creighton is just better with Dougie and from beyond the arc -- so if Wisconsin loses before its seed this year, I won't count it against Bo and will not be joining your side lol.
  
  Creighton and Wisconsin would have the potential to be one hell of a shootout. I really want that game to happen.

  Ohio State is pathetic. Nice FT shooting, Craft.

  Losing to Michigan in sweet sixteen.

  Damn, that dunk in the Harvard/Cincy game. Dayum.

  This is what I what my gray matter told me, but my heart said no. First game of Final Four for me, but Louisville will take them out if Michigan doesn't.

  Nailed it (UD winning, anyways. Not the OSU coming back). Fuck off OSU.

  They're one of the tougher teams to predict. They could play Louisville competitive in the elite eight while barely beating Mercer.

  Cincinnati doing Cincinnati things. 3/17 shooting, 6 points after 9 minutes.
• thavoice

  Was anyone watching OSU game on the cbssports website feed?
  
  BEFORE UD even shot the ball, right when they threw it in, the score read UD 60 OSU 59 FINAL.
  
  Thought that was pretty.....eery.
  Have to say I had UD winning.......
• Mulva

  

  Wisconsin having a pretty good 2nd half.
• Crimson streak

  

  Pitt is running a train on Colorado

  No doubt. Hadnt seen the score since about halftime and they stopped fucking around it seems.
• Terry_Tate

  

  Awful missed goaltending call on UC. Ball was clearly off the glass.
• Laley23

  

  American is bad. I watched them a few times this year. Just a slow start, though I didn't expect THIS kind of best down. I thought 25 was a reasonably safe bet.
• SportsAndLady

  

  At least I didn't have Colorado in the sweet sixteen.......
