    Wow, two 9's and an 11 advance ... this is one crazy-butt tournament.

    Zombo

    Does anybody want to win this thing?

    I thought you had a solid Final Two meanwhile Tour will go as far as those Wolverines will take him......and no Cavaliers,  Zags or Buckeyes in the way.

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

  • It's a Cinderella Story

  • This is weird, but I think if my two picks tonite, Nova and Duke, lose... then I win.

    Upon further review I did need another Wolverine win... I think...

    But now I do for sure... I think... 😉

    Yeah I need 'em to win so that when my one and done Texas fan friends give me a hard time I can say, "If we hadn't run into the National Champs we might have gone further than the Sweet Sixteen you losers."😁

    BTW our soph phenom Robert Williams declared for the draft. He is playing at a much higher level that DeAndre Jordan was when he left after one year. We were lucky he stayed for two. Two time SEC defender of the year.

    Right now there are nine "locked in losers" of the 14 players that is they can not gain any more points. Several are a point or two ahead of you.

    If Tour gets -0- more points you should end up between 3rd and 6th place depending on how and who else wins, if Loyola runs the table were all screwed. 😳

    If I were a betting man, which I've been known to be from time-to-time Tour is the odds on favorite right now. 

    -OR- wait and see if Michigan can blow away Loyola which they should with their rugged BIG TEN experience and you're a step closer depending on how the #1 seeds do.

    .........I liked it so much better last year. 😆

  • Whew...

    Loyola put up a great fight, but as fatigue sets in superior athleticism will overcome superior teamwork. That Loy-Chi zone was awesome for about 30 minutes.

    It's simple now... if Nova loses, I win. If they don't, bigelow wins.

    How To Bet College Basketball Futures

    The “Odds to Win” wager in pro baseball is also commonly referred to as a future wager. Bettors must correctly select a team to win an event that takes place a later time. The money wagered will be tied up until there is an outcome and bettors will receive fixed odds when they place the wager. The future odds are normally updated on a weekly basis and wagers can be placed throughout the season.

    So there you go......

  • Well congratulations to Michael and Bigelow80 in coming from behind to win it by 3 points!
