I have OSU falling in the first round.... yep

I figured, it's not like I follow this like I used to... to heck with it.

Do you have any interest in getting in our $10 pool? We need more entries like yours! :)

So far thinking Davidson 14 over Marquette 3, Cal 12 over UNLV 5, FGCU 15 over Gtwn 2, Oregon 12 of OK St 5.
.

Oregon looked good (took them in the pool). Davidson almost pulled it off (took Marq).

FGCU is the balls call, thinking Cal toughs out a win at home.

I like Oklahoma State and think they'll win (Smart is the real deal), but Oregon as a 12 seed is utterly ridiculous. That game should be very good.

I also like Cal over UNLV and don't trust St. Louis vs. New Mexico State.

Missed on OK State, but I stand by the fact that Oregon is more like a 7 or 8 seed. One of the biggest mistakes of the committee.

Nailed Cal.

Was skeptical about STL, but picked them. So I win here as well.

I was listening to ESPN radio, when I was not in front of a TV today to keep track of the games and one radio host said Oregon was going to be an 11 seed but due to the seeding they were pushed down to a 12 seed.

I guess I didn't understand that, are teams suppose to be placed in a certain spot due to certain criteria, or what?

I personally think if you win a "big 6" conference tourney you should not be placed lower than a 7. I picked the Oregon upset because in my eyes, it was an obvious pick.

I would have been less shocked if Oregon was a 6.

Honestly I think OK St was more overated than Oregon being underrated.

I also think Oregon will slip by St. Louis by a point or two, then get shelled by 20+ by Louisville.

I think road wins are my main litmus test. They won at Kansas this year. Second Kansas home loss in something like 110 games.

They're solid and Smart is a top 3 pick this year. Oh well.
