Extensive research this year, which will probably do me no good anyways. I should have stuck with my "Big White Donkey" philosophy and had a final four with Bucknell, Wisconsin, Vermont and Utah St.

But my actual picksheet looks like this:

Final Four: Oklahoma State, Wake Forest, North Carolina and Syracuse.

Championship Game: Oklahoma State vs. North Carolina

Champion: North Carolina (the kiss of death?)

Go Heels.

Wow. Juan Mendez is carrying Niagra right now.

14 points, 10 rebounds at the half. Purple Eagles trail Oklahoma 34-37.

Even though it would screw with my bracket, I can't deny a good Canadian kid who is on pace for a monster game.

Hopefully nobody had Pittsburgh as a sleeper in Albuquerque....

My final four: Illinois, Wake Forest, UNC and Syracuse with the Tarheels winning the big game against Wake.

Where are Beaker's picks? Couldn't afford to lose twenty bucks I suppose.

KNVBonehead apparently missed the 9am cutoff for pick submission.

My guess is that there was a long lineup at Subway this morning, or knowone called Dave at 8:45 for an emergency water bottle fill-up.

Not a huge deal though, just means one less guy who picked Dook to win it all.

Reading my pool picks i just realized that i mistakenly took Montana in the first round. Ooops.

Oh well. I least i didn't get stuck in an airport for ever and lose my first round game like Pitt.

Off to a good start 3 for 4. Much like Sensei picked with my heart not my head in the Niagara game. My word, is Washington all over Montana!

While I was rooting for Niagara and Mendez (who finished with an impressive 22 and 16), I didn't pick them to advance in the Austin bracket. I've got Oklahoma going to the Elite 8.

So, I'm 4 4 4 after the morning games.

Bogut is eating UTEP alive right now, much like how dingos eat babies. Not too concerned as neither team will advance past the second round. Thank god my work computer has enough upgrades to handle the ESPN RealTime Scoreboard. I'd be lost without it.

War getting fired.

I got semi-rocked in the first slate of games going 4 4 8 :mad:

Silver lining is that none of the teams that fcuked me were going any further than this round anyways :D

I'll post the standings after the games are all finished for the day.

Had UW-Milwaukee upsetting Alabama and changed my mind as i was entering my picks.
My Utep over Utah almost came true, and damn Cincinnati blew it.
Think i was 4 4 8 today as well but none go on to further rounds.

Game on!
