soon to be 7-0 woo-hoo!

Can we hold off the bragging about our brackets until at least ONE upset occurs?

 

[VOLNBAMA]

Now let's get our attention directed for Cornell-Stanford

Which nerds do you think will win this matchup?

it's okay it was only like a 320 trillion to 1 shot

what are you and LG posting from that generates all of this extraneous jibberish in your posts? maybe a freaking frequency hopping SINCGARS style bat phone?

[VOLnMiami]

I think picking no upsets was solid, given all the upset talk running around for the past few days. I strongly considered KY, but then looking at their team, I just couldn't think of a good reason that they'd beat anyone and Marquette just isn't very good.

barking up the wrong tree. we would take bradley in a heartbeat and rotate RSmith in at the 2 and relieve JHowell of many minutes.

I can't really argue with that... But I think R. Smith on his game is better than Bradley. Too bad we haven't seen him on his game this year.

Not arguing with the strategy, but it's silly to brag on being 7-0 when no surprises have happened. I would think that a lot of people are 7-0 right now.

6-1 because i thought UK would actually do something

 

[IPorange]

I am not. Let him brag. I was perfect after two days two years ago. I felt on top of the world. Then George Mason went from my best friend to my worst enemy...

It is something to not get suckered into any "upset alerts," and to correctly see the Kent St. debacle coming.

 

[UTvol1fn]

i'm just glad i didn't have UK in the sweet sixteen, that would have screwed me over.

Not exactly thrilling basketball out of the gate.

 

[VolinArizona]

Boring 1st quarter of the First Round.

Beats baseball.

Yeah, a lot of times the key to doing well is to hang on to your Elite Eight/Final Four participants as long as possible.

same here.

UGA should have been thrilling, except for the part where UGA quit playing ball.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Tomorrow should be much better. Not to mention the K-State/USC and George Mason/Notre Dame appear to be great games tonight

That reminded me a little bit of UT when we go for long spurts without scoring.

unless ND tanks, they should kill GMU.

I thought the same, but watching ESPN's bracket show this morning has persuaded me into thinking this will be worth watching. I say ND by 5-10. Yesterday I would have said ND by 20

 

[Oldblood]

I've got ND in my Sweet Sixteen

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Me too, I would love to see a Winthrop-ND matchup though. After last years game I'm sure ND would welcome this as well

 

[erob3833]

i love watching bball till midnight!

 

[Oldblood]

I think Stanford is going to crush Cornell
