March Madness pool

<p>Hey</p>

<p>Does anyone want to do a march madness pool?</p>

<p>I cant put it together if anyone is interested</p>

<p>sure i'll join. when are the teams officially picked? i wanna start my bracket.</p>

<p>ummm its 3 pm my time so... i think thats 5pm eastern time</p>

<p>ok, I did it on yahoo, so you need to create a yahoo name first</p>

<p>But after you have a yahoo name go to the sports page</p>

<p>On the sports page will be a link that says "tournament pick em 07 - sign up here " click that</p>

<p>Then click on "join a group"</p>

<p>Then click join Private group</p>

<p>Group # 74222</p>

<p>Password - goirish</p>

<p>and then you have to submit your bracke by the 15th</p>

<p>6 seed ( #20 in the country) ???
I was thinking 5 maybe 4</p>

<p>facing Winthrop (28-4)</p>

<p>good squad</p>

<p>very poor draw. winthrop is a potential cinderella team, we should have been a higher seed, and they sent us to spokane. if we get out of the first round, oregon will basically have homecourt advantage rd. 2.</p>

<p>i think the irish could make a run. good combination of senior leadership and two freshmen stepping up big time in recent weeks...</p>

<p>everybody join</p>

<p>I joined...it is already over. I am sorry!</p>

<p>mike </p>

<p>You're garbage and you know it</p>

<p>yay my bracket's done!</p>

<p>bull ****!! they played so well in the tourney i thought for sure theyd be higher</p>

<p>ya i kno i know</p>

<p>Winthrop is really good too</p>

<p>we just need to score some points
we are 17-2 when we score more than 80 points</p>

<p>i think were okay for the first round but we will probably have Oregon second round...... and well they are gooood</p>

<p>i have nd goin to the elite 8 upsetting wisconsin (if they dont do it, oregon will!! wisc is overrated they have one good player) but i couldnt help it!! lol... thats y i hate those pools... texas had to beat UNC cause my heart wont let me take UNC all the way... and it took me 3 scratch outs to finally allow pitt to beat duke lol</p>

<p>but neways nd just dont have the players... they rely too much on outside shooting, what happens when they have a cold night? they lose... which is exactly wat my bball team did in the state tourney ;( (we were 3 seed and last to 14 seed in first round cuz all we could do was shoot 3's and we couldnt hit one) they only kept it close wit georgetown cuz they were on fire and tory is getting good</p>

<p>but thats y i have OSU winning it all... you can always rely on the big man for easy points</p>

<p>ive got Kansas taking home the crown</p>

<p>I think Texas could be a sleeper tho along with oregon</p>

<p>chillin till 08 - You've got it right!! The KANSAS JAYHAWKS will take home the crown this year!! This team is tough and gritty. They've learned from being taken out in the first round of the tournmanet that past two years (we won't go into that!). Did you see their victory over the Texas Longhorns - down 22 and came back to win! I have an older daughter at KU. Younger daughter has been offered a full ride at KU, but was also accepted EA at ND.</p>

<p>yeah right! haha i got nova upsetting kansas!! lol bill self always chokes! lol shouldve stayed wit u of i and gotten himself to the national championship!!! GO ILLINI!! too bad they couldnt land scheyer, gordon, or rose--weber can't recruit for ****</p>

<p>Got mine done, I make a bracket every year....never win, not even close, maybe I'll have better luck against you guys. (kinda silly how far I pick IU to go:))</p>

<p>Sorry, but you guys are all wrong. :p</p>

<p>UCLA will win it all (Defense wins Games)</p>

<p>GL everybody</p>

<p>ucla lost their last games.. i honestly dont think they can do it.. but still a solid pci</p>

<p>if you are looking for a team out of the Pac ten.... look at Oregon</p>

<p>last chance to register is tomorrow</p>

<p>Yeah, you're right about UCLA's recent performance... But I wouldnt totally disregard their chances for a championship. They just had a couple of bad games but I still believe that UCLa is going to win it all. They place a huge emphasis on defense which is constant throughout the whole 40 mins. Plus, UCLA shoot the 3 ball well and has a dominating big man(Mbah a Moute). Also, they aint all freshman, and their offense just flows.</p>

<p>I dont see Oregon going far since their three best players-Brooks, Taylor, and Porter- are alil undersized and inconsistent on their defense. No inside presence. They shoot alot of threes but you can live or die by the 3-ball. I believe they are alil overrated. But their record is misleading since they play in a somewhat weak Pac-10.</p>

<p>That was really long but I really like UCLA :)</p>

<p>Everybody entitled to his/her opinions. :p</p>

<p>Gl everybody</p>
