There we go! First game of the day, and Notre Dame just shafted the hell out of me. There goes my first Elite Eight pick.

Also, an interesting fact, I was listening to ESPN Radio while driving home from work this morning. I have no clue who the hell it was on air, some guy and Mel Kiper (just searched Google, apparently a guy named Dari Nowkhah?) and while talking about the NCAA tournament, they talked about how Northwestern got its first ever tournament win.
Then this Dari guy asks Mel a trivia question that apparently there is only a single team left from the power conferences, (so think ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, etc) who has yet to win a NCAA tournament game after Northwestern got their first win the other day.
Out of every power conference team in college basketball, the only team that has yet to win a NCAA tournament, is our trio of overlords favorite, Nebraska!
In fact, turns out there was even an article about it from Omaha.com

And Wisconsin just shafted millions of people!
All the pretty things are broken!

Had a feeling Villanova would resort to their old ways of underachieving, but thought they'd go further than the second round.
I'm in great shape moving into the next round... as long as Kentucky can hold on.
And the blood bath continues, as Michigan screws me out of another Final Four team. My only remaining hopes are Arizona reaching the Final Four and North Carolina winning the whole damn tournament.

Well, I'm nearly fucked. North Carolina is playing like crap and losing to Arkansas with less than 3 minutes to go.

Oh thank you baby Jesus. North Carolina goes on a 12-0 run over the last 3 minutes or so and pulls out a 72-65 win over Arkansas. My hopes and chances are still alive. On life support, but still alive nonetheless.

Another potential upset in the making. Rhode Island leads Oregon 46-38 at halftime.
Even though my bracket is in full meltdown, if I can get my Rhode Island to the Sweet 16 pick to come true, I will still be happy after this weekend.
And after looking at the TGT group, myself and TigerJustin13 were the only two people to pick Rhode Island to make the Sweet 16. Now they really gotta pull this off!

And those Rhode Island assholes let me down...

Rhode Island and Arkansas did everything but win the game. The refs down the stretch for UNC-Ark were not exactly the best I've ever seen.
Duke only up 1 with 15 min to go in second half versus mob boss Frank Martin & South Carolina.
Cincy up 4 on UCLA midway through first. Along with Alford (underachiever when picked to go far), have to think Ball might shoot them out of the tournament as he works to help his dad get that $1B shoe contract.
- Happening way too often in the tournament, Michigan goes for a three when it only needed a two to win.
- West Virginia only down two to Gonzaga, but could/should be ahead. Do they not teach counting in WVU? They have gone to the hoop when trailing in numbers (1 on 2, 1 on 3) so many times and with little (seems like nothing) to show for it.
Agree...Michigan should have driven in, they were not thinking.- Happening way too often in the tournament, Michigan goes for a three when it only needed a two to win.

West Virginia...
Well, I'm dead in the water. Literally my only remaining chance at correct picks and at any points are Kentucky winning tonight and North Carolina winning the whole tournament.
And with that, I fail to pull off the trifecta of the NFL Pick Em, Bowl Mania and Tourbament Challenge. Mathematically, I just can't find a way that I get Kentucky and UNC and yet still catch up to the top of the board. Too many teams left alive for those people that even if one pick loses tonight, they have another pick or three still alive to get them more points this weekend. It would take an impossible combination of results for me to catch up and yet have no one in the top 5 gain any further points.

Who saw a South Carolina victory today? Wow! A team that was on nobody's radar is now in the final four. Now I need Kentucky to step up and pull off the upset.
