Go Mean Green NCAA Bracket Challange

[Green59]

I imagine Harvard beating New Mexico did some solid damage to most of our brackets. I had them Sweet 16.

Ha Ha....Solid damage to mine as well as I picked them to be in the Final Four.....So much for me listening to some of the college basketball "experts" on ESPN talking about how great the Mountain West Conference was this year....Early exits for three of their five teams in the tournament!

[untbowler]

right there picking that cheap piece of crap shiny toy called New Mexico only to see it break after 10 minutes of play.

Had them in FF

A lot of "smarts" had the MWC winning over 4.5 games, doesn't look good now

Colorado State could make a run?

I don't know how Colorado St even has a chance with Louisville... Mizzou couldn't play on the road all year, while Col St showed up on the road. But can they beat Louisville, I don't think so but I also had the lobos in the final 4 Edited March 22, 2013 by Dr. Seuss

I was kicking a$$ all day...then the night games happened. Still in good shape though. I had NM losing in the sweet 16

[Green P1]

I was on the wrong side of every close finish but Gonzaga yesterday.

Just to put 2 and 2 together, whose handle goes with which bracket? (i.e., where your bracket name isn't the same as your gmg.com handle) I'm "Biff's Bracket."

[greenminer]

Except for UNM, my S16 is intact.

I lot of brackets still have 185/186 possible points, but only two are at the top with 187, "Top of the Key" and "bstnsportsfan3"

Haha hey I may be 3 points behind, but am I the only one who picked Harvard as an upset? Seems like that's what everybody is the most pissed about, NM losing.

[Mean Green 93-98]

Ditto. Still a lot of reckoning to be done before then, though.

I imagine you are. I'm pretty cool with it though . . . I'll take an upset like that over keeping my bracket intact any day.

[JesseMartin]

My max points are still 184 after yesterday's losses, so I'm actually pretty solid still too. But we'll see. My big risks were putting Villanova and Creighton in the Elite 8, but if they pull it off that would probably give me a boost since I doubt many others picked that. If not I'll probably be waaayyyy down before the Final 4.

[Mean Green 93-98]

Now Ole Miss beating Wisconsin? That will pretty much kill my bracket.

[JesseMartin]

I picked Ole Miss. In the bracket I filled out for a sports bar I picked Cal, wish I had kept it the same on ours because my East and West would both still be perfect. Midwest, not so much. And looks like NCState will lose...hopefully my pick for a Minnesota upset will come through

[bstnsportsfan3]

I had wisconson into the elite 8 i believe....dam west region killed me. i doubt im in 1st any more

[Andrew]

well I was in the lead after last night, but today is another story. I'm 2 for 4 and my bracket really depends on how far Kansas State and Michigan can go...I have them both in the final four.

well you just lost one Final Four Team in KState

[JesseMartin]

Crap, I had KState beating LaSalle and then Ole Miss before losing to Gonzaga. At least I'm only down 2 with that one.

[CMJ]

Gonzaga's bracket just opened up. No clue if they can take advantage of it though.

They're guaranteed not to play anything higher than a 9-seed before the Elite 8. You would think they could breeze through it, but after the fits that Southern gave them . . . who knows?

[Andrew]

I thought Kansas State, Michigan, Oregon, and Arizona were all under ranked... And I though Gonzaga, New Mexico, Butler, and Oklahoma State were all way over rated....

Kansas State should have won that game. Two possessions and over 40 seconds to make a basket. Once for the lead and once for a tie and they could not capitalize. Why he would run to the right baseline is beyond me... I thought Mcgruder Would be one of the stand out players in the tourney. Oh well...he shot poorly and they lost. If duke, indiana, and michigan make it far I might be ok...

[CMJ]

Butler is not overrated. That is a legit team. They beat Indiana this year for crying out loud.

[Andrew]

I just do not think they are all they are cracked out to be. It is not always about who you beat, but who you have lost too. Just in general I do not think this butler team is like the team with Howard and Mack. I should have had them getting out of the first round, but there is no way they go further in my mind. I could be wrong because I was pretty sure there was no way new Mexico or kanas as state would lose haha. It kind of sucks because normally I make good money off of these brackets and sometimes the games but this year we are going to Vegas in the summer
