If Barkley gets much bigger he's gonna need his own zip code.
Re: Yahoo Bracket Challenge
Well, at this hour I've picked 25 of 29 games correctly, including MTSU's win over Minnesota. That's currently good enough to put me in a 4-way tie for 2nd. Sportdawg leads the pack having picked 27 of 29 correctly.
Michigan St sure looked good tonight. The Spartans dominated the ACC's Miami 78-58. For years I've been saying Tom Izzo may be the best "tournament coach" in the business.
Other teams looking impressive during the 1st round: Arizona, Gonzaga, Duke, Baylor, Florida, Kansas, Oregon, North Carolina and Cincinnati all won their 1st round games in convincing fashion.

The Pope is sitting in last with 3 of 4 final four teams eliminated.

Yeah poor Pope Francis, only Gonzaga is left. Bad tournament for the Catholic schools so far. Going to be a long month in Vatican City.
Re: Yahoo Bracket Challenge
I'm watching with the volume muted. What's up with Northwestern...
- Elaine?
- The kid crying on TV?
- The non calls...A guy stuck his hand through the rim to block a shot and it was not called?
Re: Yahoo Bracket Challenge
...and just in case Middle had a chance, the refs don't call a foul on Milddle for over 15 seconds...corrupt SOBs!

For good measure they call a technical on Northwestern's coach when his lost his mind. Can you imagine such a horrible call against Bob Knight? You would have witnessed a murder on live tv. Would have really freaked that kid out!

That was insane. I didnt see the hand inside the basket until the cut-to-commercial shot. Basketcam showed it very clearly.
Re: Yahoo Bracket Challenge
The officiating this year has been as bad as I've ever seen it. Missing the obvious and making calls where there is no foul.
Re: Yahoo Bracket Challenge
Officials have cost me at last two games so far (MTSU and St Marys) and saved one (Zaga).
Re: Yahoo Bracket Challenge
I am shocked at how poorly the ACC has performed. Only ACC teams left are Duke and UNC, both of whom I have in the Final 4, with Duke winning it all.
Re: Yahoo Bracket Challenge
Okay....so now I'm in 2nd place, chasing only "Nate". But Nate has a possible point production of 166 points, to my possible 169. So it is POSSIBLE that I could catch him and declare victory. But there's also a few people behind us (Bulldawg Tom, Dawgpix & Sportdawg) with even higher point ceilings. Hmmmm........

I thought Arkansas got shafted on the officiating.
