<p>keymom – You and me both! I have a good feeling, though.
And there you are at the top of our standings – you rock!</p>
<p>KITTY56 that IS amazing! The Illinis screwed most of us up!</p>
<p>Way to go, Hilltoppers! WKU is my alma mater so I was thrilled to see them win last night. As a “bleeding orange” Tennessee fan, I’m hoping for a Vols win today!</p>
<p>^^ Me, too. I knew WKU would come through. My credibility is on the line today with my prediction of a North Dakota State win.</p>
<p>My sentimental pick for today is Siena over Ohio State. Not that big a deal since it is an 8-9 game, but Siena is so small compared to Ohio State. Go Saints!</p>
<p>If anyone wants some help picking their brackets next year, let me know…I’ll be glad to help, hahaha. I’ve got last place all sewn up. I should have made the same picks as I did in the other pool I’m in…doing much better there, I promise!!!</p>
<p>wow… Utah is giving Marquette a run for their money. Proabably making a few people squirm.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I believe it’s Utah State actually 
And I hope they take Marquette’s money… I picked Utah State :)</p>
<p>yes, Utah State, but no, they did not finish it up. Sorry hopsscout. I did not enter any pools, but I would love to see Marquette go early. But it was certainly close.</p>
<p>Marquette squeaks it out…thank goodness!</p>
<p>This does not appear to be my year! None of my “Cinderellas” have come through.
Even the Vols lost.</p>
<p>keymom — OMG!!!</p>
<p>I have always loved Marquette! so glad they one - I think they could go deep.</p>
<p>I picked Tennessee. ouch. now I am 17/20. on to cheer for Temple!</p>
<p>I do not do brackets, but…</p>
<p>GO-O-O-O DAWGS!!!</p>
<p>AARRRRGGGHHHH - that darn West Virginia. I had them going into their regional finals. That really hurts my bracket now.</p>
<p>I’m just thrilled that I’ve lost only one Sweet 16 team so far. I think last year I was down 3 or 4 by this point.</p>
<p>And SplashMom, I’m a Hilltopper alum, too!!!</p>
<p>Here’s our CC pooler’s standings so far! In case anyone wants to cheer us on…</p>

<p>It is very much anyone’s game at this point. Everything is so close… look at how many “4” ranked people there are. And they are all within two of the top spot. After this first round, however, things will start to separate a little more…</p>
<p>Dbwes OMG!!! IS RIGHT!!! I was shaking during the last minute.
Terwitt, why the hate for MU? A nice little Catholic Midwest school with a great basketball tradition?
Go Warriors beat down the Tigers</p>
<p>As for Marquette, we are a Jesuit college family, so I always have to pick them, at least in the first round. Yay, Marquette and Gonzaga! Go BC and Xavier!</p>
