This is the time of year I wonder if it’d be more enjoyable not filling out a bracket.
posted by ironman02What the hell just happened in the VT/Bama game?
VT dude seriously get a tech for running down the floor after a bad call?
I thought they said the tech was on Buzz.
Buffalo looks dangerous

I did that last year. It was wonderful. I might need to go with that philosophy forever now.
Sean Miller 👍
Lol my god has a top 4 seed ever been trounced this badly in opening round?

Ok, that makes sense. I flipped it over too late and didn't know what was happening.

They're solid, and could surprise UK
People just expected a lot better from ARI.

Through 14 games today, I am 9-5 and I have lost my champion. lol
Lost Zona, Miami, VT, NC State, and Rhode Island. Of those five, only had Zona advancing past the next round, but obviously I'm done.

Scanned my family’s brackets...my wife has missed 3 but has all 16 Sweet 16 left. My son has only missed 2 and just had Zona 1 more round. I’ve missed 3 and had Zona sweet 16. My loser sister has missed 3 but picked Buffalo and has all sweet 16 remaining.
Two in family had Zona so they are toast
*** assuming Kichigan wins

Yeah.....last year I was like 2nd and 3rd after R1.
And I deliberately pick 7-8 games differently in R1 between the two brackets. So it can actually get uglier.
posted by ironman02I am 9-5
I missed 7-8 games tonight on both my brackets. That's usually a average/below year AFTER both nights of R1.
And to think I had Loyola and RI, or it would have been worse!
Rough sports year for the Pac-12.
14-2 for me...but lost Arizona who I had in the championship game

I’m on year 3 if not doing it.
13-3 here..and damn, I've seen Buffalo in person and I knew they were good--but not that good.

Look like an 10-11 seed. And it’s time the MAC stops being an automatic 1-bid league. If Toledo has been healthy, and won, Buffalo would’ve deserved a spot still. I think healthy Toledo was a 13.
Rob Gray out here making me look smart. Now do that to Michigan.

Agree.
Buffalo has great guard play, which usually wins the day in this tourney.
posted by gutsigh....day started so promising for me. Might be my worse Day 1 in the 25 years I've been doing this.
I started 9-0. I finished 12-4. Including losing my champion (Arizona). With that said, the Pac-12 just had the worst ever showing by a major conference, I'd have to think. Three teams in, two in play-in games and all three immediately bounced. Bill Walton gonna be yelling bitterly at clouds for days!

Bill Walton would have been yelling at clouds regardless of the Pac 12's record lol

My "good" bracket went 10-6, losing ARI as my champ. My other bracket I lost like 7 of the last 8. I'm not even sure how that's possible.
Could start clawing my way back in. Low seeds score more points advancing in my pool, and I have some firepower left. You wouldn't think being behind basically 6 first round games would be that big of a hole. I've got a bunch more upsets today, so I could make a big move or get buried.
At least Arizona won't have to worry about forfeiting a National Title when the FBI closes their investigation.
