It's tourney time! And I have nobody to gamble with...:sniffle:

Let's hear what the great athletes of Gemstone have to say about the NCAA tournament!

So, pick your...

1. First #1 seed to lose
2. Final Four
3. Champion.


I'll start...

1. Stanford is going down like a Bangkok whore on "two for Tuesdays"...

2. Final Four is UConn, Kentucky, Miss St., and Wisconsin...

3. Champs: Nakiro leaves his dorm room for the first time in three years to celebrate a Kentucky national championship.

Hours of college basketball I have watched this season: 0.0

I'm wondering what those of you lucky enough to have access to real television think.

[Pallon]

forget that shit, arena football is just starting to heat up

[Solkern]

Duke will the first number one out, They've been playing like shit, Stanford, kentucky, texas, and uconn will take the final four, with stanford and texas in the championship with texas winning it all!

[Tsa`ah]

Illinois>all

[AnticorRifling]

Notre Dame to sweep.

[Soulpieced]

Illinois got stomped by Wisconsin.

[Makkah]

Go ETSU. My boys Tim Smith and Zakee Wadood are gonna run thangs on Cincinnati. I agree Duke will be the first #1 to lose, although I'd love to see an eventual UNC vs Duke...

In the Big10 Tourny. Not in regular season.

Wisconsin had a chance to at least be Big10 conference co-champs, but they choked.

Illinois, for the first time in like 50 years, are the hands down Big10 champs, for forsee at least a final 4 birth and hope they don't repeat what happened the last time IL was in the final 4.

[TheEschaton]

Who's in the Tourney from Boston? BC?


Then go BC.

-TheE-

[Galleazzo]

Hey, cool, here are my guesses.

First #1 seed to get clonked: Boston College. They'll get a #1, but they've been playing for shit lately.

Frozen Four: New Hampshire, Maine, North Dakota and Minnesota-Duluth.

Champion: Maine.

(stares at you)

Isn't this thread about hockey?

:O

[TheEschaton]

Dude, BC's gonna win the hockey championship. They always do.

We could never beat them in the Beanpot. :( BU and BC are killer.

-TheE-

[Galleazzo]

Sorry, E, BC's in frigging freefall. They've lost 5 of their last 6 and got beat down like dogs by a team that had 5 conference wins a week and a half ago. They'll get a high seed from their record and that they were a consensus #1 seed two weeks ago, but man, I saw the deciding game in the HE quarters Saturday and there's no way they shoulda been outplayed by a team that had to get an OT win in Durham to keep Northeastern from pipping them.

[AnticorRifling]

Maybe you all didn't hear me....

NOTRE DAME

/announcing the winning team

[Hulkein]

1- I think Stanford will lose first... People say St Joe's had an easy schedule? Stanford had like the 110th hardest SOS as opposed to St Joe's 45 or so, and number 1 hardest out of conference.

2- Final Four for me is UConn, North Carolina, Kentucky, St Joe's (Yes, I'm a homer)

3- St Joe's. (I'm only doing a 10 dollar bracket this year because I'm too biased, heh.)

That's impossible, you left out an East final four team, and picked two from the Phoenix bracket which isn't possible, heh.

Yeah, we're talking about the NCAA tournament, not the NIT.. Notre Dame didn't make it, heh.

I still think they should go to the bracket used in Baseketball

Told you so!!

[Sean]

That game was horrible. The maryland game was bad too until the last couple of minutes.

[Hulkein]

Good call, I also picked them to go first. In my bracket, I had Stanford losing to Syracuse next round, so it'll help me that they lost now, espicially help me since Syracuse upset Maryland and will most likely beat Bama to advance to the Elite 8, don't think many had them there.

Also, I had the Zags losing to GTech next round anyway, so that also helps. My cousin had Stanford vs. Gonzaga National Championship game, lol.

Anyone see the St Joe's game? Nelson is flat out unbelievable, and West ain't to bad himself.

[Sean]

It was a fun game to watch. Close too.

[Hulkein]

I was sweating man, how good was that stretch when West was hitting them shots as Bobby Knight was yelling at the ref, who was standing right near West, about him carrying the ball. That must've felt so good for West.

[Edaarin]

FUCKING STANFORD.

At least Maryland got what it deserved.

[Soulpieced]

I'm sorry, having 3 or 4 offensive fouls called on the stud from Gonzaga was atrocious. Worst officiating I've ever seen.

2000 NBA Western Finals, Game 7 kthx

LETS GO TAR HEELS DAMN IT

[Edaarin]

WHAT KIND OF LAST SHOT WAS THAT

[Bobmuhthol]

A not good one?

[Hulkein]

It wasn't even a three, what a dumbass.. I had NC going far too.

[TheEschaton]

My bracket is now officially fucked. I had Stanford going down in the Final Four.

And the Zags. Unbreak my fucking heart!

-TheE-

[Galleazzo]

Man, I saw that play UA-B made on Sportscenter, it was the play of the day. Where the guy got a rebound and threw an over the head, behind the back, no look pass the length of the court for a basket? That was fucking ILL.

[Tsa`ah]

My brackets are still secure.

Here's to U-Conn going out in the sweet-16.

[TheEschaton]

THose guys from UAB are twins, they must have some fucking telekinetic link or some shit.

Gee whiz, look who's home state is still going strong? That's right, mine. What up. I kinda wish I cared about basketball, but it's still a moral victory.

[Edaarin]

You know what the ironic thing is? On ESPN's What's Hot/What's Not comparison for the tourney...

What's Not for State likely to pull off upsets - Alabama

Thanks a lot assholes.
