March Madness!

**fireshoes** · 03-17-2005 12:38 PM

I'm looking good on pick of UW-Milwauke over Alabama so far. Actually I have them beating BC in the second round too! Also nice that a lot of the games are in HD this year.

**Tide** · 03-17-2005 12:49 PM

Arrrgghhh. My Tide is not looking very good right now.

**dragon1952** · 03-17-2005 12:58 PM

I think Alabama will come back in this one. Wis-Milwaukee can't keep hitting 3's like that can they? 9 for 14 so far?

**fireshoes** · 03-17-2005 01:39 PM

I was thinking that too, but both teams have really been shooting lights out.

Kentucky's lead down to 6 with 6 to go!

**fireshoes** · 03-17-2005 02:23 PM

Stick a fork in Bama!

**danger boy** · 03-17-2005 02:40 PM

I'm crying like a little school girl. I didn't get to see it, but from the way it sounded, maybe that's better.

Congrats to Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Tide,

Least they were not playing Auburn!!!! Go Illinois The BIG I State!!!

Don't know how long this will work, but, if you enter anything at ALL for an email / pass at this site you can get the March Madness games streamed to your PC.

Not the best quality, but ... something for those of you at work :)

**Demiurge** · 03-17-2005 06:02 PM

Wooo! The UWM Panthers won. I have them beating BC, but I have them losing to Illinois, unfortunately.

Bruce Pearl is going to have a nice pick of coaching jobs at a major program next year.

Sad to see him go, but he's a great guy and an amazing coach.

**fireshoes** · 03-17-2005 07:53 PM

I'm guessing a lot of brackets will be busted if the current scores hold! Two 14's and a 15 lead!

**hoosier21** · 03-17-2005 09:22 PM

unreal so far, great games everywhere, seeding doesn't mean much, as noted 14's and 15's scaring the hell out some 2's and 3's

Oh yea my brackets are a mess after the first 8 games this afternoon 4-4.

I have a feeling it will only get worse tonight.

Hell of a show so far.

**danger boy** · 03-17-2005 09:30 PM

Wintrop was holding tough in the first half... i was actually a bit scared there. Second half was mostly Gonzaga.

Go Zags!!

**swerve** · 03-17-2005 10:48 PM

lol damn illinois is making it a close one. i wonder how far their heads can go up their asses sometimes.

**polksda** · 03-17-2005 11:12 PM

No ****. I'm underwhelmed by Illinois' performance tonight. VERY sloppy. They need to clean their act up, or they're going home early...

**fireshoes** · 03-17-2005 11:16 PM

Doing better than LSU. ;)

My team was bounced earlier in an ugly ugly performance - Iowa.

**fireshoes** · 03-18-2005 01:50 PM

SE Louisiana is closing thing up against Okie State. Only down 6 with 11 minutes to go!

Iowa State is hanging on by 8, and NC State-Charlotte is coming down to the wire.

Man the Ohio-Florida game has had an exciting finish! I stopped paying attention to it when Ohio was down 20.

**fireshoes** · 03-18-2005 03:52 PM

Hmmmmm....I'm starting to have doubts about my upset pick of New Mexico over Villanova. (Nova is up 34-11 at the half lol)

**woodyjacobs** · 03-18-2005 10:38 PM

yeah, what was up with that. 34-11 at the half. That was just disgusting.
I had NM upsetting Nova too.

Oooooo, I did pick Vermont over Syracuse as a long shot. things may be looking up after all.

**fireshoes** · 03-19-2005 01:22 AM

How about Kansas getting knocked off? That's what I love about the tournament!

**okiepolkie** · 03-21-2005 10:36 AM

I've seen some really good games so far this year.

SU Cowboys

Overall, I'm still happy.

**hoosier21** · 03-21-2005 10:47 AM

Wild weekend for sure
I got 9 of the sweet 16, but had Wake Forrest in the final game, and Uconn going to the Elite Eight,

Our company pool is only 75.00 total winner takes all, how much are the pools you guys are in worth?

**polksda** · 03-21-2005 05:49 PM

As an Illinois fan, nothing was sweeter than watching Bill Self crash and burn.

Some heavy hitters out of the picture early - Wake, Gonzaga, Syracuse, UConn...

**fireshoes** · 03-21-2005 08:09 PM

Yeah my bracket is junk now. I had Kansas to the Elite 8 (I did love watching them lose though!) and Wake and Florida in the Final Four.

I'm in the ESPN.com contest... or more accurrately I enterred it. $10,000 grand prize...

Best I did through first weekend was two entries that are around the 85th percentile... only 410,000 or so that outpointed me.

Hell of a tourney so far. Really looking forward to the Sweet 16... Unfortunately CBS/ NCAA did not see fit to schedule so that all the games could be seen. Washington/ Loiusville is not a featured game here...

**AsSiMiLaTeD** · 03-24-2005 06:42 PM

Go SMU!!!:D

**Shizelbs** · 03-24-2005 09:19 PM

Washington is out.

In yo' face!
