:lmao: The only pool I'm in is with some people from work. Two of the entrants are Cal Poly alums. One of them has them winning it all over Florida with a final score of 227-7.

I still might finish behind him :bag:

 
McDonald hurt!

Not hoping for anything serious, just enough to keep him out of the NCAA Tourney.
If this little Cotton ####er doesn't chill out, it won't matter.
They need to box & 1 his ###... Shut him down and they're done.ETA: & McDonald is back... Missed a shot and was outran by Cotton on another play. Doing his thing.

Don't know if anybody's posted Nate Silver's take on the Duke loss:

http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/dukes-lehigh-loss-was-bad-but-mercer-was-worser/

Some upsets aren’t as big as the seed lines suggest; some are bigger. Two years ago, the No. 2-seeded Duke Blue Devils were upset by No. 15 Lehigh in the first round of the NCAA tournament. But Duke was the weakest No. 2 seed in 2012, according to the FiveThirtyEight projections that year, whereas Lehigh was unusually strong for a No. 15. Our model had given Lehigh a 10 percent chance of winning.

Something of the same pattern held last season when No. 2 Georgetown lost to No. 15 Florida Gulf Coast in the first round. Georgetown was just the 15th-best team in the country, according to our ratings, and was badly overseeded as a No. 2. Our model gave that upset a 10 percent chance of occurring as well.

This afternoon, as a No. 3 seed, Duke lost to 14th-seeded Mercer — but the Blue Devils (and the FiveThirtyEight model) have fewer excuses. In fact, Duke was the strongest No. 3 by some margin this year, according to our ratings and other indices like Ken Pomeroy’s power ratings. Our projections had Mercer with just a 7 percent chance of winning before the game began.

I'm getting nightmare flashbacks of Harold "The Show" Arceneaux.

So how good is Tulsa? Anybody watch them this year? Is this going to be a tough game?
Neither team plays any defense. James Woodard of Tulsa can ball.

I think Tulsa wins 84-79 because Steve Alford is a terrible in game coach.

Love watching Kyle Anderson, though. Dude's a threat to grab a triple double on any given night.

I actually like most of the players individually. But only having one reliable 3 point shooter (with McDonald not shooting well this year), and shockingly, only one reliable free-throw shooter is a bit of a problem.

It's no coincidence that they're the same guy.

I like Johnson, McAdoo, & Meeks - All solid college players. If Bullock didnt leave, this is a final four team. Tokoto is wildly inconsistent - makes some amazing plays and follows them up with a turnover that leads to a fast break with under 2:00 to go in a tie game.
