    I was really impressed by the small guard (Curry) from Davidson. That was quite a performance.

    Tennessee struggled a bit early on, but came on strong in the second half.

    I am anxious to see how Indiana fares against Arkansas this evening.

    My bracket took a major hit when Duke went out. I had them in the finals against Tennessee.

    Tell Michael that this type of practice has a very low overhead! :)

    No! I went as far as picking them to beat Gonzaga but I had Georgetown taking them out in round 2. I think they have an eye opening experience in store for them when the Wisconsin student section award winning choreography kicks in. :wink:

    It is always a challenge to pick the upsets. Fail there and it is all down hill.

    I had picked Nova and then changed my mind.

    The next two rounds will reveal the winner of the contest.

    Tennessee looks good, but N.C. has not even been challenged.

    Both Louisville and UNC run fast paced games. Tennessee plays better against that style than they do against the slow paced clock controlling offenses of American and Butler.

    We need to take it one game at a time and I think we will be alright. Bring on Louisville.
