Looks like I have an uphill climb before me to win the annual Redmen.com bracket challenge.
 
Another great riveting game.  Its been a great tournament so far (not so much for my bracket, I did have Ohio State making the sweet 16).

Big Ten once again doesn't disappoint in the tourny as they continue to come up small.

The Loyola center has bar league game tonight
He looks like a guy who works in middle management in an industry a few years from dying, and he won't see the writing on the wall until it's too late.
 
I had Loyola in both my brackets. Just a very well coached team who I really enjoy watching, but their season likely ends against Illinois.I remember Lucas Williamson from their magical run.

Georgetown v Colorado
UC Santa Barbara v Creighton
Maryland v UConnx...
I'm looking forward to Missouri v Oklahoma Sat night. Should be very competitive. They've been rivals for a long time.

Not my preference, but all three win.
 
Keep an eye on Chandler Vaudrin (The Big South POY) and DJ Burns (a former top 100 player who transferred from Tennessee.....  he's from Rock Hill, SC) in tonight's game versus Villanova.  

I think they could give 'Nova fits.

Winthrop, Grand Canyon and UC Santa Barbara are popular underdog picks
 
After Oregon State beat Tennessee the announcer said they hadn’t won an NCAA tournament game in 39 years. I was only in 6th grade but I remember that team with A.C Green. They had been back seven times before today. I believe Rutgers hasn’t won in 38 years. We are sitting on 21 now. I really hope that streak ends next season.
 
Don’t sleep on Colorado. They were a very good team in what appears to be an improved PAC 12. I think Georgetown is the hot pick right now but that will be a tough game. I hate to say this but I will be rooting for the Big East teams with the possible exception of UCONN. My son is strongly considering Maryland for college next year so they could become a team I may have to start to root for a little.
 
The games have been great today. Virginia Tech/Florida set the tone and there’s been some very memorable games throughout. 

Ok State and Liberty in a good battle, and ANOTHER big ten team is on upset alert as Purdue trails North Texas near the half 
 
Only Big Ten team I have in the Elite 8 is Illinois. However had UNC over the Badgers which doesn't look good at all.

North Texas clinging to a lead against the Boilermakers.

Pretty sure Javion Hamlet was one of the first names Cleveland was kicking the tires on when he got hired.
