<p>Maybe my eccentric pick of West Virginia isn’t so weird after all…</p>
<p>orchestramom ~ it’s certainly as good as any other!!</p>
<p>Great to see those left coast Udub and Saint Mary’s teams which are usually underrated by all the NCAA pundits kicking some tourny butt.</p>
<p>
Same here. Duke has the easiest road to the Final Four IMO.</p>
<p>gloworm your post made me SMILE! </p>
<p>Gotta love my Gaels! Left the couch long enough to gas up and car and wore my “SMC mom” T to the gas station …have to say there was a little bounce in my walk ;)</p>
<p>Bullet had to laugh at your “told you so”</p>
<p>I had Kansas winning it all…:eek: (but so did most people I know…)</p>
<p>I also had Villanova beating Duke. 
</p>
<p>Thankfully we never bet anything other than lunch…:o</p>
<p>(H is a die-hard Duke fan, and I have on the Duke sweatshirt today.)</p>
<p>OK… I don’t know where I was in the last sixteen hours (well, I do, but can’t explain my ignorance). I was at our high school until 12:30AM, but kept checking scores on my iPhone. I must have mis-read the Kansas score and thought they had just pulled it out. Now I hear they lost. Like someone said upthread… WTH???</p>
<p>Go BIG RED!!!</p>
<p>Wow - what a heart stopper that MD/MSU was. I was sort of rooting for Maryland because I think MSU will be a tougher team to knock off later.</p>
<p>^ Spartan alum here, I think I held my breath for the last 30 secondso f that game! What a finish! I am sorry Kailin Lucas is injured though. Really looking forward to the matchup with Northern Iowa, their upset of Kansas was terrific…</p>
<p>One bracket dead. :(</p>
<p>ochestramom, Maryland alum here (and DS goes there now). Still in shock about the last 4 minutes of that game. Talk about roller coaster, for both sides. Great Game!</p>
<p>And proof once again why this is the best sporting event in the world! Try topping this weekend, World Cup!</p>
<p>This is great, but don’t worry, Bullet, World Cup will top it. I can’t wait for June 12.</p>
<p>Wow, go out for the afternoon and dinner with friends and come home to Cornell winning and Maryland losing! It just keeps on going!</p>
<p>I think I will just enjoy my standing for a bit before Thursday, Ahhhh. No idea why I didn’t go with my other card. I have Syracuse going all the way in my office pool & am ahead by leaps & bounds there. Isn’t it fun?</p>
<p>'Cuse goes down!</p>
<p>another bracket shot…and teriwitt, who do we root for now??? Cornell for the upset…</p>
<p>daughter at SU has not had the best day; this hasn’t helped…</p>
<p>melsmom: sorry to you also…</p>
<p>^^^My KU kid is still in a funk!</p>
<p>Butler!!!</p>
<p>The madness continues! I am enjoying my time in first place with my second bracket, but at the end of the W. Va. game, a bunch of you will pass me :(</p>
