If we can get 12+ to throw in like $10-20, I'd be willing to run it. We could even fill it up to the 20 max, and whoever wants to throw in some money, we can have payouts for those people only while letting everyone still participate.

I have the old Excel sheet at home with the teams. I believe it was 20 teams, 7 per team. We got the draft done by the play-in games too. It was nice.

I think you went on spring break or something and it was like 48 hours waiting on a pick. Then, you dropped out haha. No biggie, shit got done anyway.

Hmm, dont remember. I do remember watching Akron lose in the NIT while I was on spring break. I feel I would have told you guys if I was going to miss/had somebody else make my picks.

Oh well.

I think it went he signed up to do it... then realized he was going to be on spring break and dropped out... none of us saw the post and we waited like 48 hours for him to make a pick until someone else got a text back from Pick6 saying he didn't wanna do it. In all fairness I think Pick6 did drop out before selection sunday and just none of us saw the post lol.

It's looking pretty likely notre dame will be in the ACC next year. ACC granted notre dame permission to join this summer

It happened in 2004, when North Carolina finished fifth in the ACC and Duke first. Surprisingly, it did not happen in 2007, when Duke finished seventh in the ACC, but I don't expect such a rare opportunity to be passed over again. I am somebody who believes in selection committee "conspiracies," however.

TCU was one game..this is 6.
reclegend22;1391930 wrote:I do think UNC will lose at UMD, and possibly at Clemson and at home against N.C. State. I think it's very possible that the Heels finish with three more losses when you group in the possibility of losing to Duke as well (even though, as I said, Duke will not likely win in Chapel Hill).

I think Duke could easily lose three more games as well. Duke could lose at Virginia, against Miami (if Kelly doesn't return they will definitely lose to Miami) and at UNC.

So, to predict that a team should win out or easily win 5 of 6 in the ACC, especially this year, is not that realistic. IMO.

So yeah.

Carolina is arguably playing the best basketball in the country right now.

HUGE win for Carolina. Always tough to win at Maryland.

The stage is set, wildcats. We'll see if Carolina can make your prediction come true in Chapel Hill. Saturday is gonna be unreal!!
