    I'm not, picked them in the first round. They played Illinois really tough early in the season, that Preston kid is a stud.

    Lunardi called it earlier this week.  Total choke by Ohio state.  Pathetic free throw shooting

    You've got the wrong Ohio horse there.  The Buckeyes are good.  Maybe a little undersized, but they've played well against Illinois and Iowa (beat and lost to both) who have the two best big men in teh country.  Scoring is as balanced as anyone in the tourney, outside maybe Baylor.  
    I think this is a top heavy tournament.  I can't see anyone outside the 1's and 2's that has a chance.  

    well, I went to OU.

    see?
    Ohio State consistently played to the level of their competition all year.  That's not a good trait.  Further, in the last month they developed a habit of going cold and committing turnovers in final 2-3 minutes.  They kicked it against Illinois but showed it again today.  No points in last 2:34 of regulation.  That simply cannot happen.  I am a homer, but I had them out at 8..which is painful but not devastating.

    I had the wrong 15 over 2 picked this year.  I had Iona over Alabama.  Guess it’s still possible...
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    So as of now.
    As we speak.
    I have a bracket on ESPN that is in the 99 percentile. A bracket that is better than 14.5 million other brackets. And I will brag about it now, because it is destined to collapse. Because I had those piece of crap, slime belly, no good, rats assed, OHIO STATE BUCKEYES going to the final 4 in that bracket!!!!

    FUCK THE BIG TEN!!!!!

    Oregon/VCU declared no contest due to COVID protocols in VCU, Oregon advances. Feel bad for the people involved in the game. On the bright side I had Oregon winning that game

    Virginia showed the door tonight.  I wonder how much COVID affected them having the layoff that they did during the ACC tournament.  However, it still follows the trend of them getting upset, despite them winning it all 2 years ago.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.
