DTro Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 wow some of you guys are rockin! I'm 8 of 12 like I said overrated first round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMITOUT Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Texas A&M is the first lower seeded team to win today. So far everything is holding to form.I watched the Duke game via internet until they showed the last few minutes on CBS. Duke looked flat and Belmont averages more three-point shots attempted than Duke, if you can believe that. It was definitely a match up of the perimeter game. Duke better shape up for the next game or they'll be shipping out. Pretty poor performance. They were hitting on all cylinders mid-season and could probably beat anybody, but now they're sputtering coming into the tourney and it could be a short run. With only one senior they should be back next season with another great run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smartguy Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Kansas State was another lower seed team that won today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1lkstage Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 First round losses aren't so bad as long as you didn't pick them to win a semi-final. 9 for 12. -1 in sweet 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Wow, what an opening day. Belmont totally should have beat Duke, but the guy that set the screen on the inbounds didn't turn and look for the lob pass.Beasley and Walker go off for K State showing it's better to have two fab freshman than 1 in USC's Mayo.If you picked all high seeds you'd be 14/16.I'm looking forward to tomorrow, as well as some of the matchups on Saturday like Wisconsin and K-State.

walleyes12 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Kentucky's loss hurt alittle, and Texas AM winning are my only 2 misses, I am hoping for a perfect 2nd day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyepatrol Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 15/16 so far for me. I had Arizona as an upset pick over WVU, but that obviously didn't pan out. The 2nd day of 1st round games is always what burns me. Every year it seems the 2nd day has all the upsets and unpredictable teams winning.

Cooter Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 K-State looked impressive, Badgers will have their hands full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meaney Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 14 for 16 now I knew Marquette was going to win, I just cant stand that team so I couldn't bring myself to pick them. Also, USC.... I should have known better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNTFISH69 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Tennessee 53 American Univ 51, with 5min to go. That would be major not good for the old bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott M Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Yeah, Drake totally screwed that up. Lead by like 4 with 2 minutes, and p'd it away. Took like 3-4 25 foot 3 pointers. That is not what you want to take if you want to win the game. Get it inside. WKU was way over playing passing lanes and guarding too tight and nobody drove. Live and die by the 3. Once a Korver always a Korver. This has been about my worst opening round picking in like 5-6 years. Oh well, just gotta get the big points in the later rounds.

Scott M Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Glad I got the Davidson game right. I was going to post last night about what a stud Curry is. I have a pair of his dad's shoes from when he was a Charlotte Hornet. 23 game win streak now...Both teams tickled the twine from downtown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyepatrol Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Yyyyeeeessssss!!!!! WKY over Drake!!!! And actually, WKY really blew the lead in that one IMO! And then here I was cheering for Davidson, totally stoked that they won, only to look at my picks and what the hey! I picked Gonzaga???? Two wrong picks so far today. Let the downfall begin!
