Have 7 sweet 16 teams and lost my champion

Duke isn't going to win it all. Dream on.

It looks like my bracket is making a comeback. After the first 20 games I had already lost 4 sweet 16 teams. Well now after 48 games I have 8 teams in the sweet 16, 6 of the elite 8 and all four final four teams. I have OSU beating Kentucky.

All of my final four are still in as are 6 of my elite eight teams.

10 of 16 remaining
6 of my Elite Eight
3 of my Final Four

It will come down to Baylor making the Final Four or not for me; if they do, I can win my pool, if not, I think I'm screwed.

Winning my office pool out of 100 people. Small turnout this year, but first place takes about $200, so I'm happy. I won the top dog award for most first and second round wins.

I also continue to stand in the top 10 on WTOL Channel 11's Bracket Pick 'em contest. I was in second place, tied with a few others, before last night's games.

Good year so far. Let's Go Duke. If the Devils win (still a long, long way to go; right now Purdue is looking stout), I will clean up my office pool and probably close in on the WTOL.

6/8
4/4

On my more "homer" bracket, where I picked OSU to beat Kansas and win the national championship AND where I picked Ohio to beat Georgetown. My other "brain" bracket is pretty much toast with Kansas (champ) being eliminated.

A key for me is Baylor. They're the only team I still have in the South region. Games that don't mean anything to me are Duke vs. Purdue and Michigan State vs. Northern Iowa, as Texas A&M and Kansas were my Elite 8 picks for those games.

This, exactly. I do have all four teams in the East right, though.

12/16 of the sweet 16

All of my elite 8 are left (Ohio State, Michigan State, Cuse, Kansas State, Kentucky, WVU, Duke, and Baylor)

Also had Northern Iowa over Kansas.

I would need proof from a bracket filled out in advance and dated before I d believe that last one.

No you didn't.

I'm somehow clinging to first in our yahoo pickem, but I will most likely drop as the tourney moves forward.

I am in the 97.7th percentile. I was lights out in the first round, since then I have just been decent. Kansas and Villanova did me a lot of harm.

Nice man some good picks there would be cool if you got all the elite 8 right sadly I don't think you will haha.

My brackets are pretty much screwed cause I had Kansas winning it all(except in my homer bracket I had them losing to Duke). Still the only thing left I have to look forward to in my brackets is Cornell beating Kentucky because I havent met anyone else that picked them to make it to the elite 8. As long as Duke wins it all I won't even care about my bracket.

Haha its cool man, I was still shocked when it actually happened. I tend to like teams that play great D like Northern Iowa, I think that those kind of teams usually have a chance against anyone because their style of play will always help them avoid being blown out and with a couple of lucky bounces, are capable of pulling off the big upset. When everyone else was picking Kansas for national champ, I decided to go the opposite way because I thought it could be a big chance to make up ground if it actually went through, kind of like an all or nothing type move. I'm not going to sit here and say that I knew it all along bc like I said, I was still shocked that it actually happened. Just took a chance...if only I had done that with some of the first round games...

Nothing to do with my bracket, but the UK ombud announced today that all classes will be cancelled here next week if the Cats make it to the final four. If they get my hopes up for an entire extra week of spring break and then blow it I think I might die.

All classes will be cancelled for a week?
