    I actually picked Bucknell to beat Kansas originally, but switched it last minute. I also had Wisconsin taking out Kansas in the next round anyways. So this loss will likely help me because I know a lot of people have Kansas going far.

    I still have a chance, as long as my 4 final four picks go through. I'll be fine since not that many people have Louisville.

    Kansas hurt me though. I had them going to the elite 8, so it is painful.

    So who had Bucknell and Vermont winning?

    Sorry, I have to brag. [​IMG] Two of my five brackets, neither really that GREAT overall but both got this upset combination:

    Unfortunately of my other three brackets, two had Pacific beating Washington and one had Washington advancing, these two both had Pittsburgh. [​IMG]

    I only make one bracket, this way I can't question myself later. I gave it my best and screwed up, better than taking 5 tries and still screwing up.

    If I made 2+ brackets, and one was used for fun and the other was in a pool and the fun one turned out better, it would piss me off. I would not let that go for a while since I dwell on most of my mistakes. Nice call on the upsets however.

    Nice call on those March Madness brackets, Fast Luck. Even though your first round wasn't that strong, you will take the edge after the next round of the tournament with your picks.

    What happened to Stanford tonight? I had them winning, but they got destroyed.

    I had Syracuse in the Final Four and Kansas in the Elite Eight. Today was my worst day in NCAA Bracket history. I've given up my brackets and am just rooting for Michigan State.

    I don't know how my picks will work out down the line. I am a little too much in love with the Missouri Valley Conference and always have been. But even though a lot of my picks were already wrong, and even if the rest of my picks flop, right now I'm feeling pretty good. [​IMG]

    Anyone see this guy? Just some random dude:

    Bucknell was my bracket buster. Congrats to them. They deserved to win.

    They certainly did. They played with more confidence, they played smarter, and they played better basketball.

    This and Syracuse will kill me in the long run, I had 'Cuse in the final four and Kansas in the elite eight. But other then these two my brackets look pretty good for now. Three of my four final four are still in it so I am happy.

    Nice bracket Fast Luck...

    Kansas and Cuse losing has basically killed my bracket. I didn't have either making the final four but It still ruins my overall bracket. I was happy to see both lose though in a way. Makes the tourney that much more exciting and unpredictable.

    I think Kansas and Syracuse basically killed everyone's bracket. If anyone had Bucknell and Vermont on their first and only bracket, I commend them.

    I was talking to a Kansas fan yesterday before the game, and he said that they will choke. Ugh.

    I'm not even worried about my bracket anymore, I'm just worried about Kentucky winning!
