I fell for Richmond, too, but only for one round.

That's the thing - had I not listened to ESPN pimping Richmond for the last couple of weeks, I would have totally picked St Mary's. Every time I was about to move the Gaels along, I kept hearing ESPN voices in my head keep telling me just how awesome Richmond was.

Look, I own my Richmond pick - just saying I've gotta stop letting ESPN influence my picks so much. My gut has always proven to be much more accurate than ESPN, and I don't trust it enough...

Put half of my WV payout on Wisconsin, half on Pitt.

I'm going small with Wisconsin. Pitt seems safer.

I just want games like yesterday. Xavier's intensity has been entertaining and fun to watch, but this is the closest game out there so far today.

 

[CycloneErik]

Ball game--Xavier. Fantastic!

It's really impressive what they've done at Xavier. It's one of those schools you can trust to do well in the tourney every year. Go Musketeers!

And their coaches always go on to success at their next stop. It's almost a guarantee all the way around. Great program!

All 3 early games have been paid now.

Perhaps we should be courting their coach...

Is 99k on Wisconsin considered small?:biglaugh:

 

[CycloneErik]

I found the Pitt game on the betting board before. Why can't I find it now?

 

[gwoodclone]

Tubby to Auburn? What?

You didn't go all in, did you?

Spread the wealth. That way you don't have to have everything on one game.

I put 99k on Wisconsin, 99k on Pitt. Hoping to have about 400k to put on the over in the Duke game.

I got into the trouble I'm in by putting everything I had on Kansas.

Good call.
I left 2.6 million or so behind on that Kansas game.

Oh, well. Still a chance to be at 10 million today.

Only 11 perfect brackets left on ESPN.

Only 11 perfect brackets left on ESPN.

I bet that number hits 0 by the end of the day. I am calling a 2-3 seed going down at some point today.

 

[RhoadsRage]

I will be closing Mizzou/Clemson shortly. Get your bets in now!!!

Man, Siena doesn't look like themselves at all. Purdue is looking more like they did dring the season.

Still early, maybe some nerves??

 

[CycloneErik]

I'd think so. Maybe they've heard stuff like being favored over Purdue, and feel the pressure to show it.

I think they'll settle down as the game goes. It's not like they haven't been here and done this before, more than once.

 

[RhoadsRage]

Siena now starting to hit their shots.
