ND St showing up at Zags. Would definitely be nice to play them next, and the day is due for an upset.
Iowa is going to destroy whomever they play next.

So Treavon Jackson isn't playing right. When is he gonna return.

We need him for the big match ups but only if he's 100%. At this point he may not be in basketball shape which is why I was hoping he played this weekend.
I would not trust him in a game at this point.

My West bracket looks like somebody took a red pen and just went to town on it. But the other three I'm not doing terribly bad in. Only one wrong pick in the North (had Buffalo over West Virginia) and if Dayton upsets Providence I'll be perfect in the East. South isn't spectacular, but all my Sweet Sixteeners won or are winning, so it's only the West that got properly fucked.

The top of my bracket is great. The bottom of my bracket looks like shit. I got all but one right in the Midwest (Buffalo over West Virginia) and I'm perfect in the East so far (have Dayton beating Providence). In the West and South I'll probably end up with 4/8 right in both and still have all my Elite 8 teams. I'm basically ok with my selections in the South bracket but annoyed with myself with what I picked in the West. Thought I picked Ohio State over VCU until I looked at my bracket after the game. Also don't know why I picked Harvard over North Carolina. Other two I got wrong are whatever (Georgia State over Baylor because I couldn't pick two 14's over 3's and Wofford over Arkansas because I was picking against every non-Kentucky SEC team).

I'm somewhat worried about Oregon though but not to much.
Oregon only returns 3/15 from last year's team.
However, last year these teams met in the Round of 32 and Oregon led by 12 at half-time. It was basically a home game for Wisconsin (played in Milwaukee) and this year its in Omaha (where Altman used to coach).
Oregon is tiny and unless they go off I can see Wisky dominating if they shoot well. Oregon has weirdly awesome chemistry though and some a few NBA-ish talents so there's a shot.

St. John's is done.
Bison keeping it close.
Dayton/Providence will end close.

That technical is the most ridiculous call I've seen so far. It's looking like three of my Sweet Sixteen (Providence, Iowa St., Baylor) are gone.

These point spreads for tomorrow is insane. Hard to find a profitable 4 teamer
Ok this I have to share with you guys. There is literally only ONE PERSON in the entire ESPN bracket challenge, that has a PERFECT bracket after the first round.
http://games.espn.go.com/tournament-challenge-bracket/2015/en/leaderboard
The guy has Duke and Kanas in the final game and Duke winning it all. Very strange finals.
Thought it was pretty cool. I can't even imagine being that guy right now lol.

They weren't winning this round. But you do get to play them in football in 2016!ND St showing up at Zags. Would definitely be nice to play them next, and the day is due for an upset.
I know but I never seen any one person have a perfect bracket after the first round before. Thought it was pretty cool either way. XD

Sounds tempting.
cincy +17
GTown +4 1/2
Arkansas +4 1/2
NC State + 9 1/2
Only one that would get me nervous is the Arkansas game. I may replace them with Norte Dame. I'm playing on house money thanks to UCI.

Eh. I had Arkansas advancing over NC in my bracket...probably effecting my selection with that one and perhaps Georgetown too who I also have advancing. Although I'm quite certain Georgetown is going to beat Utah and the points don't matter. You're right though...the point spread is ridiculous.

Going purely by seeding you would be 27-5, which I'm guessing is unusually accurate for the seeding. Nobody can brag unless they have at least 28 correct so far.

Kentucky-Cinci o/u opened at 118. Up to 119 now. Seems awfully low, so I parlayed with Kentucky -17.5. I don't expect Kentucky to cover, but if they win by 18 it's gonna be a 120+ point game.

I'm just relieved that we didn't become the first 1 seed to lose to a 16 seed. Hopefully we can contain Young and Oregon tomorrow.

The only game today that piques my interest is OSU-Zona. Still, 2nd round games are usually the best ones. That fast turnaround!
And yes, round of 32 is still the 2nd round to me. The first four games don't constitute a 1st round, but rather a "play-in round."
Thankfully, next year the round of 64 and round of 32 will officially be called the First and Second Rounds again!

State-Nova should be good if we show up.

KU will lose to a 16 one day. They've already come close.
That Dayton-Providence game started way too late last night. The original tip-off time was 9:57 P.M., but the first session went way late and they didn't tip-off until 10:45 P.M. These are both East Coast time teams playing in East Coast time. It doesn't make any fucking sense. I was having trouble staying awake here in Dayton. And it's definitely not fair to the players and fans at the games who were there until at least one. Fix that NCAA.
But they won, which makes me happy. Hoping for another Elite 8 run this year. Can't believe we're even in a position for that again.

I just think even if good State shows up it's a really bad matchup.

UCLA's going to fuck around and actually make it to the Sweet 16.
The team that shouldn't have made the tournament and then shouldn't have won their first game is making a run...
