Title: NCAA tournament brackets?
Post by: Rin Kagamine on March 18, 2013, 04:04:03 PM
Since we did fantasy football in this forum earlier, anyone interested in having a MotK bracket pool to the basketball tournament?

I'll most likely make a bracket if a group is formed but I haven't known shit about college beeball in years.

I don't know shit about college basketball, but my brother got #2 in the contest he entered last year. Missed first by 2 points.

Pitt/WSU does not bode well for me, I somehow always guess the same way on all four 8/9s.

Listened to the radio on the way in to work this morning, which covered a lot of the previous day's events in the tourney. The results were enough to garner some interesting reactions amongst the sportscasters.
Whose school is in the NIT?
UMASS Amherst serves as a sort of surrogate college for me. I have 4 relatives who have gone there for college, not to mention that many of my high school friends went there, too. I almost went there to boot. Too bad they bit it so early. It's been many, many moons since Marcus Camby and Derek Kellogg were rampaging though the tourney. Kellogg actual coaches the team now.

Well, looks like Louisville is now the team of destiny after Kevin Ware's leg went all rubber.

Christ that was uncomfortable to watch.

Title: Re: NCAA tournament brackets?
Post by: Edible on March 31, 2013, 11:57:09 PM
Near as I can tell, the winner will be determined by the Michigan/Syracuse game, unless Louisville goes on to win it all.
Title: Re: NCAA tournament brackets?
Post by: Kilgamayan on April 01, 2013, 01:06:01 AM
Here's how it works, near as I can tell.

- If Michigan beats Syracuse, I win regardless of what Louisville does.
- If Syracuse beats Michigan, then you win if Louisville doesn't win the title and I win if they do.

Which is basically what you just said, but more explicit.
Title: Re: NCAA tournament brackets?

That Kevin Ware injury was horrifying, basketball should never have an injury like that.

Though I'm sad to see Wichita State couldn't hold their lead. I'll take a 9 in the title game over a correct prediction any year. :C
Title: Re: NCAA tournament brackets?
Post by: Rin Kagamine on April 07, 2013, 11:00:43 AM
Whoever thought of the possession arrow rule was an idiot, but there was no reason that should have been called as a jump ball anyway. Also, hope you all enjoyed Karl Hess, we've been dealing with his crap in the ACC for years.
Title: Re: NCAA tournament brackets?
Post by: Kilgamayan on April 09, 2013, 02:06:40 AM
I'm glad this group has been decided already so I can root for Michigan to win this game.
Title: Re: NCAA tournament brackets?

I hope Louisville wins the women's tournament tomorrow as well. Has that ever been done before?

UConn did it once within the past decade or two, as I recall.
