    LOL, your main bracket? The one you posted for the Rip City Two group you're 0-3.

    Very few upsets, top seeds constantly winning (ex. an Elite 8 filled with 1 & 2 seeds).

    @JDC I meant Brock Ravet. I always get those two mixed up. Itll be a rebuilding year though. They could have their best class ever in 2020.

    4 of Gonzagas Top 8 recruits ever come in their 2019 class. In 2020, they have a top 50 guy in Harris and have serious interest form a couple top 20 prospects (which theyve never landed).

    Bones Jones, thertare frequent upsets in early rounds, but women don't yet have level of parity men do. That is changing as more girls get seriously involved in sports. It's no longer just Connecticut and Tennessee, but there are still a handful of elite schools and rest of the field. Not always but often.

    Meanwhile, looked like UConn might run away with it, up ten late third with ball, but Louisville forced a turnover and got six straight. Five point game early fourth.

    It amazing to me how much the women's game has changed. As a team today the Ducks shot 50% from 3 point range while Mississippi State shot 57%.

    Yes I know the D is different from the men, but still these ladies can shoot!
    Sabrina Ionescu is a pleasure to watch.

    I think Zion is just Julius Randle 2.0. What do you guys think?

    If Julius Randle 1.0 played the Blazers 82 times he would be the MVP.

    LMAO, you should make all these comments BEFORE the tourney starts otherwise it has ne credibility.

    Everyone has tough decisions when they fill out their bracket, that's why no one ever comes close to being perfect.

    This is why some people are frustrated at the Zion hype. Literally every thing he does is highlighted by the commentators, like they have qouta of times they have to mention him or something... It really like watching ESPN’s coverage of Lebron...
