[Trainwreck2100]

I'm outta the loop when does the tourney start?

[Horry For 3!]

I don't know if I was suppose to sign up as my name on here, if so. I will make a HorryFor3! ID if not I will keep my Tarheels name. I didn't know what to put.

[gospursgojas]

Forget the Boogeyman...check your closet and under your bed for "Swoosh Smile Tiger"...

[AlamoSpursFan]

I'm in, but it would only let me use AlamoSpurs so I put in ASF and it said I needed a number so I went with the imaginative and daring ASF1.

If my fantasy football track record translates to this, I will be totally awesome until the Final Four where I will lose my ass.

:lmao

[AFE7FATMAN]

Im In

[pache100]

I'm in with my SpursTalk login.

I kept brackets for the first time last year, my sister got me interested. I didn't join any contests, though, because I had no idea what the heck I was doing. This is going to be fun.

[Jimcs50]

I am entered.

Now, do we enter again after the first 2 games?

[leemajors]

this is interesting, you have to pick between rounds? all the other brackets i have ever done you enter fully from the beginning. anyway, i'm in! i got an electric smoker for my birthday so this will be the best tourney ever =]

[rayray2k8]

Im gonna give it a try.. but i know I'll suck at it. :rolleyes

[Kori Ellis]

I am entered.

Now, do we enter again after the first 2 games?

You don't have to enter again, you'll just log in and you'll have the option to your picks for the next round.

[DannyT]

now do the picks i made for 760 also apply for sppurstalk
im pretty sure they do
but i just dont want to miss out

[Horry For 3!]

Yeah, it is easier than most because you get to pick round after round instead of each one the first time.

[Kori Ellis]

Yeah if you joined the Spurstalk group at 760, that's what counts.

[Kori Ellis]

Yeah, it is easier than most because you get to pick round after round instead of each one the first time.

Yeah they set it up that way to give away prizes I guess.

[George Gervin's Afro]

I'm in..as gervin of course.. I was able to pick the first round but unable to pick beyond that. is this correct? should I be able to pick from the second round until the end? or is it round by round?

[Horry For 3!]

Read above. You only pick round after round. As Kori said, they do that so they can give prizes to whoever does the best out of each round and then overrall.


On another note, I am wearing my George Gervin jersey when I go to SA today :smokin

[hussker]

I am in as hussker....duh...

This will be a great March Madness!

[Rummpd]

Big upset coming in 2nd round! Wisconsin Badgers (assuming they beat AZ which they should do this year) over Villanova - Badgers went to top 8 last year and tested NC and have basically same team.

Heard it hear first, I live in Philly area now and Villanova has been winning with a 4 guard lineup all year and a patient team can pick them apart in my opinion.

Go Badgers!

Stick to baseball.

[Rummpd]

Even the Phlly media respects Bo Ryan and says it would be Villanova's toughest matchup most likely until BC - Ryan is WI coach who by the way has a career winning percentage that among the highest in NCAA history, albeit most of that a the lower levels of the NCAA before coming to WI. However, the guy can flat coach - no disrespect to Jay Wright (also a hell of a coach!) and Villanova but have attended several of their games this year = Villanova is highly vulnerable to an upset as they play a four guard lineup that while very good, is not unbeatable.

Guess SeguSpur knows more then the Philly radio stations = yawn!

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

With these early scores, my brackets look to be in trouble

[pache100]

With these early scores, my brackets look to be in trouble

Mine, too. I've missed one already because I picked Oklahoma. How could Milwaukee beat them???? :lol

Pacific scared the shit out of Boston College!!!! (2 OTs???)

[SoCalSpursFan]

I started a thread in the college sports forum...

it almost already had lots of almost furious people had BC lost.

[T Park]

Same here.

I damn near picked Wisconsin, but played it typical T Park safe style.

But so far so good. 66% right! :)

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

I picked Seton hall and Oklahoma :pctoss

[pache100]

I picked Seton hall and Oklahoma :pctoss

YIKES!

[Kori Ellis]

I picked Seton hall and Oklahoma :pctoss

Me too.

[T Park]

So far so good

Alabama Marquette!!!

:)

[George Gervin's Afro]

I have BC winning the national championship (on yahoo bracket)..

:oops

[Horry For 3!]

Marquette better get their head out of their ass! I had picked Alabama and then changed it to Marquette on Tuesday so they better not screw me over!

[pache100]

Tennessee is having a really hard time with Winthrop. Who knew?

Alabama is stomping Marquette, and Florida is only 6 pts ahead of South Alabama at the half.

We may see some upsets today.

Montana is beating Nevada! That's good for my brackets.

[T Park]

I need Nevada to wake the fuck up.

Bama and Florida to hold on.

And Tennessee to discover that they are a good team again.

If Tennessee can wake up and Nevada to wake up, Im lookin damn good.

[Kori Ellis]

Winthrop-Tenn tied with a couple seconds left.

[Kori Ellis]

Tenn hit a shot with .4 left.

[T Park]

Yeah Tenn

Come On Alabama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sob Come On Nevada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Horry For 3!]

I been talking about it in the March Madness thread in the College forum

Freakin Chris Lofton, he hadn't made shit in the 2nd half and steps up big time

[Horry For 3!]

Tenn escapes barely

[KEDA]

I too had Seton Hall and Oklahoma


NEVER EVER count on the Sooners to help you out

[T Park]

10 points out of a possible 14.

Had I taken UW like I WANTED TO, Id be tied with the legendary Peter Burns for first place.

[Horry For 3!]

Same with me if I kept Alabama rather than picking Marquette on Tuesday :pctoss

[TxJudsonRocketTx]

Mine, too. I've missed one already because I picked Oklahoma. How could Milwaukee beat them???? :lol

Pacific scared the shit out of Boston College!!!! (2 OTs???)

Dont feel bad, I picked Milwaukee to beat the shit out of Oklahoma in my office/school pool, and I guess I accidentaly picked OU to beat Milwaukee in the 760 group :depressed

[ashbeeigh]

The Aggies didn't help me at all tonight. I can't ever count on them.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I should have drank more before I made my picks last night, I'd be money.

[SequSpur]

Texas AM played excellent defense and kept the game at their speed. It was a great win.

I wonder if Pop consulted on the D.

[ashbeeigh]

I was just praying for a miracle on the Syracuse side but in my heart I wanted the Aggies to win. For my bracket...it was all about the Orange. Hey, I'm still at 75%.

[Melmart1]

I am at 81% for first round, but I forgot to sign up for the private SpursTalk one. It sucks being an airhead sometimes.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Some of the Ag players have been known to watch game film of the Spurs playing defense in the past :tu

This is your first time playing?

You always pick upsets :p

[ashbeeigh]

I almost picked Northwestern State. But then...I didn't.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

If George mason beats Michigan State I'm going Ghostal.

[ashbeeigh]

GmooO for the win!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Rock Chalk Jaywalk...

Wisconsin didn't even make it out of the first round. Your hoops insight sucks.

[Horry For 3!]

:lol Wisconsin got owned by Arizona

I knew Arizona wouldn't lose to Wisconsin but I didn't think they would beat them that bad

[Horry For 3!]

If George mason beats Michigan State I'm going Ghostal.
:lol

[DannyT]

looks like me and my cousin are runnin things
but its still early in the tourney
and well im not even sure if thats my cousin...but he is know for corny names like pepsiman
but we will see what happens

[T Park]

Aggie is going ghostal :lol

[DannyT]

bye bye vol vols bye bye

[Rummpd]

I took it on the mega chin appropriately for spinning Wisconsin, a team that gave NC last year all that could handle and then they were blasted by AZ. (WI will be back another year though - Bo Ryan is a fine coach and man).

Now is AZ that good - we will find out today as they probably have a good chance to uphend Villanova today?

Thoughts on who will win this one?

Ah ha! Thanks!

Sidenote: Has anyone else but me noticed that LSU's "Big Baby" Glen Davis PLAYS and LOOKS (shudder!) like a young Shaq????????? It's uncanny. His eyes even drift crossed like Shaq's do if he looks at one thing too long.

[angel_luv]

Yea for Clooney's Chick, but darn it Duke!

[angel_luv]

That is twice LSU has gotten me. I'll have to consider picking them next round.

Although if Texas advances, I want to go with them.

Serves me right for not going with your team. It wasn't an easy call, just so you know.

[hussker]
