I'm in about five pools and so far my biggest predicted upsets are:

Winthrop over ND (although ND is predicted to go far)
Holy Cross over S. Illinois (BIG long shot on this one)
Gonzaga over Indiana (most people are predicting this one)
GW over Vanderbilt (again, most people are predicting this upset)

I also have a couple with Texas Tech and Creighton.

Championship I have a bit of a balance. Kansas, Ohio State, Florida, Georgetown and my long shot champion is Pittsburgh!

Old Dominion over Butler
Arkansas over USC
GWU over Vandy

I picked a few 10's over 7's but i don't really count them as big "upsets" because the two teams are almost equal in comparison. Same with the 9's and 8's.

Old D def. Butler
Georgia Tech def. UNLV
Villanova def. Kentucky
Gonzaga def. Indiana
Mich St. def. Marquette
Arkansas def. USC
GW def. Vanderbilt
Albany def. Virginia
Creighton def. Nevada

Like Shiznit said, some are 9/8 games.

That's a brave one. A lot of people have Wash. St. predicted to go to the Final Four. If it happens you will be a superstar in your pool though.

Whooo...Maryland just made me really nervous for a little while against Dominion. But they managed to pull it out! That little Curry is going to be a superstar considering he's only a freshman.


Posted by: Goodfella9783

Rice looked real good in BC's game too. They're gonna have their hands full against Georgetown (if Gtown advances).

Oral Roberts has an early lead.

I just can't support a school with the name Oral.

Michigan State defeats Marquette in first round, and then in second round defeats #1 seed North Carolina.

Yes, I'm a Spartan fan let me have my dream.

Goddammit Duke sucks balls. Can't believe that one. Did anyone pick that upset?

No, but I had Duke in the sweet 16. Motherfuckers. First time I've rooted for Duke in my whole life and will never do it again. That bein said, I hope VCU gets ass raped next round, probably against Pitt. That Raynor from VCU is a little punk.


Posted by: ponyboy

I didn't have either of them getting past Pitt in any of my pools. Although I didn't have Duke losing either.

I actually have Pitt winning the whole thing in my "longshot" pool!


Posted by: Uthinkso

Go Michigan State!!!

Got past Marquette now is the tough game against North Carolina.

No your not. The best user had 13, you had 11. That's only 2 picks and only half of the 1st round games have been played


Posted by: Goodfella9783

I smell some big upsets today

Corpus Christi up big on Wisconsin.
Notre Dame losing to Winthrop in the second half by 18.

I have fucking Wisconsin going to the final Dammit.

As usual Notre Dame = over rated = I chose them to be a first round knock out.

Good thing it's still early in the Wisconsin game. They have plenty of time to regroup. Only down 10 now.

Notre Dame is making a run too!

3 point game now. Nice run. But why the hell does ND keep pressing? Winthrop is killing it with ease.

Happy Dance!!!

Now I just need Wisconsin to wake up. I already got screwed by Duke.
