The right side of my bracket is pretty busted, but I don’t know how many had Auburn gettingnthis far.

hate to see a big 10 taken out of a trip to a final 4-but the game is historic-so win or lose it's going to be remembered for a long time.

Who do you boy's have winning in Teh 4?

Texas Tech sitting at a +405 to outright win is super tempting. I don't think Mich St is that great and TT defense has been SENSATIONAL BABY!!!


I think Virginia is just too much for a short handed Auburn team.

Teh Tube has....

I had Virginia winning this year in my bracket. So far so good and I just don't understand why more people didn't pick this very easy choice.

They're a heavy burden defensively. Maybe not as good as the Red Raiders but they pair that with offense that loves to use up a ton of shot clock and put you to sleep. You play defense for 25 seconds every time you're on defense and then see if you want to play fast paced offense. Bennett finally having some legit offensive weapons this year made this team the easy choice for me.

I think I've got that $100 locked up because literally no one else in my office picked them. Just worry about the Spartans. They're the only team that I think has a chance to beat them (but I doubt they will).
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

Fuck. I should of placed my bet. I knew the money would roll in on Texas Tech. Went from +405 to +125

Ughh!! I'm not betting now. Should of got in earlier. That was insane value! I have been losing some money lately so I didn't pull the trigger.

I got Texas Tech vs Virginia in the Finals.

They missed the double dribble prior to the previous foul, but that was definitely a foul on the last shot.

Nice comeback by MSU, then they just couldn't finish.

This Virginia vs TT championship game is gonna be like 32-30, and it will be exciting as fuck.

Fuck! There was a LOT of money to be won on this had you got your bet in early in the week.


People were acting as if it's your typical Mich st team.
