theSLVRBCK Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 No mid major has a chance to beat Micgigan State at home, they are too well coached.There's only been two years under Tom Izzo where Michigan State won at least 20 games and failed to advance to the sweet 16.Rarely do they disappoint in March.Is why they were my pick to win it all.Battle tested in the best conference in the NCAA this year, and have Izzo at the helm ... I like my odds there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmoehrin Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Pitt is no longer short for Pittsburgh its now short for pitheticPretty much the polar opposite with Jamie Dixon at Pitt.Only the second year where they have failed to win 25 games under Dixon, but only three times have they gone to the sweet sixteen in eight appearances and only once have made it to the Elite Eight.

RyanB06 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I had Saint Louis and Wichita State. Go me!And the first of the Big East defectors goes down. May that not be the last.

pmoehrin Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Didn't think Marquette had that much heart.Not that I didn't think they were playing with any earlier (making a lot more mental errors then effort ones), but to close out the game the way they did was impressive.Really feel bad for Davidson. They did everything needed to win that game but score more points then the other team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanB06 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Meanwhile, the Zags are in a much-too-close game with Southern. Could this finally be the year a 16 knocks off a 1, destroying a billion brackets in the process?

dbadefense1990 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Really feel bad for Davidson. They did everything needed to win that game but score more points then the other team.Kinda reminds me of the Indiana-Michigan game to end the regular season.But thank God for the Marquette comeback, for my bracket's sake. Amazing that they went 3-for-3 in the perimeter in the last 90 seconds. And this tournament is a "game of inches" for the last Davison turnover.

fouhy12 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Wow, a really good game between Gonzaga and Southern. I don't want Zaga to lose because I have them going to the Final Four, but watching a 16 seed topple number 1 would be really cool. A Gonzaga loss would really open things up for the rest of that bracket. fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even then, it's really not even your bracket that you're cheering for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
