Bracket Madness

Well, when I first did my brackets for this years NCAA Tournament, I had a ton of upsets. I had #11 Baylor over #6 Purdue, I had #12 George Mason over #5 Notre Dame, and luckily I changed both of those before the deadline, and got them both right in my brackets. As of right now in my pool with Uncle Pat's work, I'm in 4th place out of 82 people... and the all-hailed Uncle Pat is in 80th place, haha. I made a few mistakes that I hurt myself with, like taking #11 St. Joe's over #6 Oklahoma, and I took #6 USC over #11 Kansas State when at first I actually had KSU winning. Actually, for alot of this tournament I was in first place in the big pool, most of the time sharing the first place with a few people, but when I went to bed last night after all the games in the first round were complete, I had first place all to myself. Today kinda hurt me though, because #7 West Virginia upset #2 Duke... who I had going to the Final Four at first, then changed it to them losing in the Elite Eight to #1 UCLA. I obviously have #1 North Carolina winning the whole thing, though I changed the loser from #2 Texas to UCLA. I have #2 Georgetown going to the Final Four over #1 Kansas, to shape up an Elite Eight rematch of last year between them and North Carolina. I have Texas beating #1 Memphis in the Elite Eight. One pretty big upset I took was #7 Butler over #2 Tennessee in the second round game that will take place tomorrow. In the last Elite Eight game, I had North Carolina over #3 Louisville. I didn't have very much confidence in #5 Drake, so their loss wasn't that shocking... though I didn't think that #4 Connecticut had any chance of losing because of my great confidence in the Big East, so their first round loss to #13 San Diego was pretty shocking. I knew that #12 Villanova had a good shot at an upset over #5 Clemson, though I decided to take Clemson because of what they showed me in the ACC Tournament, and of course Villanova won. Another game that just ended was #5 Michigan State beating #4 Pittsburgh in the second round. I had alot of confidence in Pittsburgh after they won the Big East Tournament, though Michigan State is a good team... And I just saw the ending of the UCLA vs #9 Texas AM game, and it had a pretty sweet finish with Collison hitting a layup with 9.5 seconds left, then the AM guy getting packing and UCLA's Westbrook with a run down the floor and a slam with the game ending. I kinda feel bad for AM, but it really would messed up my brackets, as well as alot of other peoples brackets had Texas AM won. Thats about it though brosifs... (Directly from ESPN blog)
