LOL I am more excited that Molds went from next to last to first than I am to be in 2nd.

[strike]I hope Kansas wins, just so molds loses[/strike] I just really hope Kansas wins because I hate Kentucky ;)

I'm so freaking mad at myself I originally had Kentucky vs Kansas in the Finals and I had Louisville and Ohio State in the Final Four, but like an idiot I changed it up at the last second I had North Carolina in the Finals vs Kentucky.

Ohio State choked. THE END. No reason for a 13 point lead to disappear in the second half. I hope I'm wrong, but I think UK wins the championship pretty easily.

Lol everyone still alive in the bracket has Kentucky and I'm the only one with Kansas. Hopefully Thomas Robinson can destroy Davis in the post.

[QUOTE=ballinbroken;301555]Lol everyone still alive in the bracket has Kentucky and I'm the only one with Kansas. Hopefully Thomas Robinson can destroy Davis in the post.[/QUOTE] Robinson is good but Kentucky isn't small like Ohio State. Across the board Kentucky has far more talent than Kansas. Only Kentucky will beat Kentucky.

[QUOTE=molds13;301567] The only thing that makes me feel a bit better about it is that, if Kentucky wins, CincyFan007 shouldn't because he didn't fill out a tiebreaker score for either of his brackets. Give the win to jeff.frederick!!![/QUOTE] With ESPN it doesn't even matter who has the most points, they determine the winner by taking all the entrants that finished in the top 1% and have a random drawing with that person winning. Which kind of defeats the whole purpose of a bracket challenge.

[QUOTE=molds13;301567]This really annoys me. [url=http://vevmo.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=13089][img]http://vevmo.com/imagehosting/15504f78862a95805.png[/img][/url] Congrats, CincyFan007. You have the two top brackets on ESPN. That's impressive. But I think the #1 rule of the Tournament Challenge is that you should only be able to submit [B]ONE BRACKET[/B]. You have some people who fill out 15, 20 brackets. That's just ridiculous. All of the top 10 brackets are not the first one that the user filled out except for one. The only thing that makes me feel a bit better about it is that, if Kentucky wins, CincyFan007 shouldn't because he didn't fill out a tiebreaker score for either of his brackets. Give the win to jeff.frederick!!![/QUOTE] I think he accidentally added another bracket because other brackets are identical.

[QUOTE=ballinbroken;301645]Why does everyone think Kansas is small? Jeff Withey is 7' and Thomas Robinson is 6'10. They are a bigger team than Kentucky.[/QUOTE] I never said Kansas was small. I said Ohio State is small while Kentucky is not.

Kansas' problem isn't its size--it is their sloppy playing. I almost put them as national champions but after seeing how they have played this tournament, I am glad I did not.

UK is National Champs baby !! Awesome.

Was the game any good? I had to pack it in early last night.

[QUOTE=Help Desk;301752]Was the game any good? I had to pack it in early last night.[/QUOTE] I didn't watch it, but I heard it wasn't good at all. Kentucky had the lead the entire time by 14 or more, except near the end apparently.

It was pretty much like every Kentucky game. Get up by 15-20 points and then go on cruise control.

Once again. Between Indiana, Ohio State, Michigan State, and Michigan - it's anyone's for the taking. And that's not even including Minnesota who will improve - and Wisconsin/Purdue are always scrappy. Expecting it to be a lot like this year - with the league champion dropping a solid 5 league games (if not more).

UNC is losing three players early to the draft so who knows if they will be able to make a run for the title next year.

I love how Notre Dame is still egotistical to the point that they won't include football in the move. Well, I hate it, too. I love to hate it.

[QUOTE=Help Desk;317858]I love how Notre Dame is still egotistical to the point that they won't include football in the move. Well, I hate it, too. I love to hate it.[/QUOTE] Notre Dame gets all the benefits of being in the ACC, with the largest media market and its elite basketball conference, while being allowed to "sleep with other conferences" during football season. It would have made sense for the ACC to make this accommodation 20 years ago, but Notre Dame football is a shell of its former self. At the very least I would have thought that Notre Dame football would phase into the ACC once the NBC contract expired in 2015.

I have heard that NBC is willing to pay whatever it takes to keep Notre Dame out of a conference. I don't expect them to join a conference any time soon unless ratings for their games decline.

Wow, so this just further confirms my belief that humanity is plain stupid.
