I really hate it when ISU sucks in basketball. And, for a school that used to call itself a "basketball school", we seem to suck a lot.

I shouldn't try to do this so late at night. I forgot to click "post reply".
You forgot to cross off my Tennessee pick for SEC. I'd prefer to ignore it but I suppose that would be unfair.

Won't do us any good, but it looks like @coolerifyoudid & I will be rooting for Cincy, St Bonnie, tOSU, Loyola & LSU today.
Well, with St. Bonnies, Colgate, and Alabama all winning, I think we can crown @riceville98 the winner.
@riceville98 has clinched.
Yes ... @riceville98 needed only St. Bonaventure or Alabama to win to clinch, from my assessment.
Awaiting @ImJustKCClone's official tally to confirm.

Riceville runs away with it...well done!
Several ties...posters are listed by alpha within the ties. I think @coolerifyoudid should change his name to Koolerifyoudid. Who's with me???
