Going back over the thread, it appears that I missed ode, who is in with his pick of Wisconsin. He said he might change it, but it's too late to do that now.

Let him as long as they haven't played yet.

Because LBlack was the winner last time, I'll allow the rules to bend for him. I am putting in his pick now.

ptjn is already out.

Not wanting any favoritism. Had a 73 yr old man take me to da liqua sto'. He wasn't in much of a hurry.

White Russian in honor of the election.

Sorry guys.

It's good, Landon. I put you in.

Oh well, that was a short stay in the pool as Princeton falls to Notre Dame. Congrats rsvman for picking the Irish.

ode First round isn't over yet. Most of the teams people picked haven't yet played.

Your team won. My team won. sggolf's team won.

sggolf is ahead, then you, then me. After the first round is over I'll put up standings.

I'm thinking of doing it like a golf tournament. So far, sggolf is 4 under, you are even par, and I am three over. ptsn pulled a Tiger (WD).

2nd round-#5 seed UVA (Virginia)

I will take Iowa State in the 2nd round.

In Izzo we Trust. I'm going to take Michigan State to beat the Jayhawks. It's unlikely but possible.

The only team I'm absolutely sure is going to win is North Carolina, but they're only worth one point. I went conservative in the first round, so I'm going to go a bit crazy for this one.

I'll take Middle Tennessee to beat Butler. I'll probably live to regret this pick, but it is what it is, unless I change it prior to noon, which is only about 28 minutes from now.
