BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 I'm in. But conflicted, should I pick Bama to go on a run and win it all before it happens so I can look like Nostradamus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 Lmao. So, I used the Randomizer just to see what it would pick... It picked UMBC to be the first 16 seed to beat a 1 and a national championship game of Florida State and West Virginia. Fun-nee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 Not really big upset IMO, I picked Loyola, as did a bunch of people. But it was a wild finish. Now if UNCG had pulled it off, that'd have been a SHOCKER lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mv91 259 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 11&5 on day one. Not so good. Got to pick it up on day 2. I do have all three 10 seeds winning today, plus 11 seed Syracuse lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a peek. ;) #13 seeds with either an AdjO/AdjD above 50 are now 4-1 this decade against #4 seeds with either an AdjO/AdjD below 60. Buffalo’s AdjO was 47 and Arizona’s AdjD was in the 70s. Was the king of value bets to choose Buffalo and it all paid off beautifully. 1inStripes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbgfan 855 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Quote I had a uneasy feeling when the score was tied at the half that it wasn't going to turn out well. The Retrievers were "hunting dogs" and their trail was relentless. I watched the first couple of minutes in second half. When the Hoos came out and didn't establish their game, I couldn't watch anymore. Oh well, I will go with the Dukies now and hope they win it all. As for Pepperidge Farm, my favorite are the Shortbread Cookies. swva_havok_fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
