The Big 12 goes a respectable 5-2 in the first round.

They were tired and lost a big lead.
They were tired? LOL

It was a back and forth game. They were up 8pts with 6min/4min. I don't think saving 1 timeout is why TCU hit a runner with 1 second left.


Exciting game though!
They played Wednesday. They were gassed and playing poorly. But let them play. They basically pissed game away

They were playing poorly because they play poorly. That's what they do. That's why they were an 11 seed.

Coaches sometimes, you know, intervene and stop bad trends. But you be Illy.

Why was it funny to you that they were tired?

On another note, I like Avery Johnson in the booth.
Better in the booth than on the sideline, that's for sure.
Do you think he was a bad coach?

Ask Purdue if 16 seed FDU plays poorly.
Ask Arizona if 15 seed Princeton plays poorly.
Ask Virginia if 13 seed Furman plays poorly.
Ask Iowa State if 11 seed Pitt plays poorly.

Worthless predictions for 3/18

KU by 4 over ARK
Furman by 3 over SDSU
Duke by 4 over Tenn
Princeton by 5 over Mizzou
Houston by 8 over Auburn
Texas by 6 over PSU
UCLA by 15 over NU
Bama by 5 over Maryland

I found it very easy to cheer against Purdue. Matt Painter drives me nuts. Just not a likeable coach for me.

Despite a lot of fail, my e8 is still intact.

Murderers, Creighton, Duke, Marquette, Houston, Xavier, Gonzaga and Kansas.

I had Zona going to the final 4. Other than that I have 7 of e8. When my pick loses, it always feels like a stupid pick afterward like "I should have known".

I'll bet you a pizza (or whatever you want - up to $100 value) Northwestern doesn't beat UCLA.
Deal?

that someone had 33k to bet on a 16 seed?


I wouldve guessed the odds wouldve been worse for a 16 seed.

I won my parlay last night (thanks FAU and TCU for the excitement). Placed a couple more today. SDSU, KU, Tennessee (Duck Fuke). And SDSU, KU, Mizzou, Penn State. I don’t think the second one has much chance at all, and please forgive me for betting on Mizzou. Had to bet Penn State as a friend is everything Penn State.

Modest little bets. Still up $40 from yesterday if both of these lose.

Betting on Missouri comes with a karma penalty.
