I'll be damned.

Anybody pickem?

Nope.

Thought about it.

12 vs. 5 thing.

That was the only reason.

Didn't know a thing about'em.

I had providence going to the regionals.

Nope. Took Providence even though I was stunned that they got a 5 seed. Canadian friend picked Pacific and Manhattan only because he always picks at least 2 12 seeds.

Only way I won't be alive in all 16 second round games and beyond is if Kansas loses. Whee. I'll enjoy it until next weekend, when I'll go down in flames.

Actually I was surprised Providence came in at #5 too...I thought twice about going against them myself...well, maybe not quite twice but it for sure wasn't an automatic click.

Ouch!

I feel your pain - I had Mich. State going to the regional final . . . :(

Thankfully all of my other failed first round picks I had slated to lose in the 2nd round and, so far, the other team in the pod is still alive.

Yup.

Hopefully I'll gain a rank with 'em.

I did...but then I saw them several times this season so I knew more about them than some of you "Easterners"...they can play...not picking them in the second round tho...

Hey - it's all about the Dunkin' Donuts center!
