NCAA Tournament Let's Be Real *First* Round: Friday Edition

[Shaun1985]

Come on Duke I can't be perfect thursday and lose 1st game Friday.

Wash your mouth out right now! lol

I think I picked the wrong 14 seed to win today

I expected that if any 3 seed were to lose today it would be Iowa State. Guess not.

Same one I picked

 

[YankeeVol]

I'm glad Duke is out

 

[ToineMac]

Wash your mouth out right now! lol

Man I wanted the billion. I care nothing for either of these teams.

 

[govols120]

Remember that time the fifth-best team from the Atlantic 10 made the second round and Duke didn't

 

[TrueOrange]

So Duke lost to a 14 seed this year and a 15 seed two years ago.

Great win for Mercer. Seems like all of the lower seeded teams have played tough in this tournament.

 

[govols120]

Oh man why does Tennessee have to play Mercer next round if they win? This is unfair

 

[SamRebel35]

A sweet 16 berth has never been more attainable.

 

[Aesius]

I like the UT fan going nuts cheering for Mercer.

 

[Shaun1985]

rofl @ the Tennessee fan in the highlights jumping up and down like we just won the national championship. Obviously, Duke hatred is real.

They will either roll us, or come out totally flat. They had nothing to lose playing Duke... But now the pressure is really on.

Id much rather play them than Duke. Honestly we couldnt have asked for an easier path to the sweet 16

 

[TrueOrange]

I like the UT fan going nuts cheering for Mercer.

He's probably only looking at seeding numbers and/or recognizable names.

 

[govols120]

This is fun. Also I need to stop doing brackets so I can enjoy these upsets more.

This is fun. Also I need to stop doing brackets so I can enjoy these upsets more.

Exactly what I did this year. And it feels liberating.

 

[govols120]

Next year, man. Or maybe I'll just rip it up now and have fun the rest of the way.

Wonder if Coach K feels like an idiot now? He sure looks like one.

 

[bowlinggreenvol]

Next year, man. Or maybe I'll just rip it up now and have fun the rest of the way.

Soon as I lose my first one I don't worry anymore and just pull for who I want. That means by about 7 pm on Thursday I'm a fan of every team playing someone I hate.

 

[govols120]

I have a feeling we're not done with upsets, either. That late night slot delivers a good one every year without fail.

 

[Vols4life]

This is the same Mercer team that beat us in TBA last year in the NIT....

This is fun. Also I need to stop doing brackets so I can enjoy these upsets more.

Same here

For your Tennessee halftime entertainment, UNM-Stanford going down to the wire on TBS.
