Another good one with a two point lead for Richmond with a minute left and Vandy with the ball.

Vandy missing too many FT. Now down 3 with the ball and 18 sec left.

What a shot by the kid. Sick shot.

I picked the upset, so hang on Spiders.

What an awesome shot by Anderson. I think Richmond just might pull this out.

Nice steal, and just hit your freethrows Richmond and you might pull this out.

This is a great example of how missing freethrows can kill ya.
1 of 2 ain't going to cut in the tournament.

Wow. Thought really hard about picking Richmond over Vandy, but couldn't pull the trigger. Wish now that I would have.

The last two years, I've done a pretty good job on my brackets, actually winning a good bit of money. This year, through 8 games, I've already lost 5. Terrible.

Vandy gets off an even worse buzzer shot than Louisville did.

Alright, got that one. Nice win.
Who would that thought the next round would be a 12 vs. 13.

So far only two wrong, L'Ville and Penn St.

And of course I redo my bracket at work and take Richmond, but I didn't do it for pick 'em groups here.

Still only have 1 loss on the day so far and that is Louisville. This is the first time in a while I've done this well on day 1 haha.

I'm good except for the Louisville loss. I picked Utah St over KSU later tonight. I also picked St. Johns and Cincy -- both of which I think could easily be wrong.

I know removing your head from your ass will prove to be difficult. But fuck off and at least try for me.

LOL. The odds are against the A-10 going 3-0. I picked Marquette in these brackets though, so you got that going for ya.
