Curious note, a lot of people in this thread are vBuck poor. Who is going to fork out for the prize? :laugh:
Maybe the money is all tied up in bets.

I was gonna create a bookie and get vBucks that way or something along those lines.

Guessing Ryan Odom is going to get a raise, and likely a bigger a job...

KY's road just got a hell of a lot easier. I can see either KY or TN coming out of the South now.

After the first round dust settles.....

Major conference teams left....
SEC - 6 (8) 75%
ACC - 5 (9) 56%
Big10 - 4 (4) 100%
Big12 - 4 (5) 80%
BigEast - 4 (6) 67%
AAC - 2 (3) 67%
A10 - 1 (3) 33%
MountW - 1 (2) 50%
PAC12 - 0 (3) 0%

There are 5 one bid league teams still in. That's a sweet 16% of the current 32 teams left.

I think it's fair to say that the committee's process has a lot to be desired...

-PAC12 obviously shitting the bed
-ACC so far looks similar to last year..... over rated
-SEC, Big12, and Big10 look under rated....
-Big East is about as expected. We'll see second round.
-1 team out of the Tues/Wed games is still alive (Cuse)
-I couldn't agree more with Dickie V who pleaded his case for more small conference teams over mediocre big conference teams... St Mary's, MidTN, WKY, OldDom, and SIL... we never new yee.


I love March!

What does everyone think is fair for payout? Winner only? Top 3?

Going to Vegas - first time there for March Madness. Definitely putting some cash on our ladies to win it all.

Who has strong feelings on any of the lines in the first round or Cinderella stories? I'm ticked Iowa State and Houston are playing second round - liked them both to make a run.

I'm a little bias but I like Purdue in the first two rounds. Especially if Edwards back is getting better which he said it was.

If you can, hit up the Westgate Sportsbook. It's pretty insane. I think I spent 14 hours straight in that room a few years ago.
