Well, I'm 12-4, and none of my sweet 16 picks are out. There's still hope.

After day 1, Nevada and Rut are tied for first. :D

12-4 and 13-3 seem to be popular results after day 1. Next year I'm going to pick my teams based on their cheerleaders or some such thing. More scientific.

Growing up hating UCLA, I cannot bring myself to pick them very often. Close but no cigar last night, but I think they will be done after tomorrow, so that should help with the rest of that bracket.

Please to be explaining your criteria? Inquiring minds want to know. :p

PS - I was 12-4, like many others! Go Terps!!

PSS - Join us on the chat line, we had fun discussing calls last nit. It was also somewhat fun watching TJ sweat out the Nova vs AU game! Sorry TJ!

:D Ha Ha... I made it...

The OK State coach just got whacked. OK St/Tenn

Me too. And she's perfect in the first 3 today and I picked Tennessee. So 17-2 and 14-5.

Ouch, me too. My first sweet 16 team to go down.

Dayton over West Virginia. :D

Wake was my only one to lose.

But my wife picked Siena (I was impressed with that pick even before the game went into OT and then 2OT) and I didn't and that made the difference in the first round. 24 to 23, I lost. I imagine I'm near the bottom of this pool with 23, but there's still time.

Including play-in game, I am 25-8. Only sweet 16 to go down, similar to many, was WF.

Think anyone's still in the running for the $1M perfect bracket? Cleveland State and Sienna?

If I get the final right, I could be in the running in the group. Not too many of us have UConn winning it all. BC & Wake getting bounced from my Sweet 16 wasn't helpful. A split of the OT games was a wash, I guess.

After the first round, ESPN's leaderboard lists 35 people having 310 / 320 possible points. No perfect brackets this year.

How many of the 35 got tripped up by Cleveland State? I will guess at least 2/3rds of them.
