Official GC March Madness Thread
How about we use this one thread to post all our musings about the Big Dance?
First three games of the day and I'm 2/3. Dodged a HUGE bullet with the BC/Pacific game. Had the Eagles not pulled that out it would have seriously killed my brackets. I'd like to say UWM pulled a big upset today but lets face it, they're a darn good team that if I was a fan of a big conference team I'd hate to be playing. They basically outplayed OU and showed why the Big 12 was lucky to get 4 teams in this year. Up to the 'Hawks, Horns and Aggies to salvage some conference pride. If A&M knocks off SU it will go a long way towards that.
Bomb scare out in SD postponed the start of the Alabama-Marquette game.

I'm 3/3....so far. I don't know for sure why I picked Wisc.-Milwaukee over OK, but now I'm glad I did...
Also, thank g-d BC won otherwise my bracket would have been totally killed as well.
This is so bad, I have SO much to be doing but instead I am playing on the internet and watching basketball instead of paying attention in class. Oops.

3/3 so far.
Picking Winthrop was an interesting choice, but we'll see what happens.

I'm 2/3 so far, and I also dodged a big bullet in the BC game. It looks like Montana is on top of Nevada early, which may upset a few brackets.

Again, I say ditto even though I knew better than to pick against Bama.

<hijack>You're from KY? I didn't know that!</hijack>
Okay, y'all, don't laugh too hard. Remember I bleed Kentucky blue...so my secret fantasy is that UK beats the heck out of UAB, then pulls out the upset of UConn thanks to a monster game from Shagari and Woo. While I'm dreaming, WE beat Michigan State in OT thanks to a three pointer by Patrick, and finally ending a nothing short of miraculous tourney run with an April 3rd grudge re-match and mauling of IU in Indy. Sigh. It's fun to dream!
Of course, if any of that happens, you'll be hearing about my funeral arrangements!

I picked Seton Hall, too. I always feel the need to pick the local team to upset in the first round. As a result, my bracket looks crappy right now.
