    Memphis is having trouble with Cal State Northridge. Did anybody have them losing in their bracket?

    I don't have them losing until the sweet 16. Them losing would be a huge blow to my bracket.

    Calipari always recruits bone-headed athletes. Its cost him missing the NCAA tournament and it cost him winning the National Championship in the past. Great athletes, sure. Fundamentals of the game they lack.

    As much as I love seeing upsets -- the best part of the tourney -- this would be a big blow to me too. Wow... tie game! This is similar to watching the Grizzlies last night against Denver.

    I think you'd still be better off than most people. Maybe you should root for them to lose.

    who cares if it ruins your bracket? upsets make this thing great...unless you have money riding on a bracket than I can see being upset, otherwise, NBD

    CS Northridge is impressive! They got big guys who can finish at the hoop, and guards who can make the open 3. They got a good team.

    I thought the NCAA tourney was sold out here. The RG looks empty.

    Possibly, or maybe just the scalpers outside asking for ridiculous prices..

    After Purdue wins their game, I will be 4/4 in the first four games finished of the day (with an upset predicted... if you want to call it that... with a 9 over an 8)!

    Go me!

    In looking at the standings, a few people forgot some things.
