why do you think that marquette will beat Maryland?? and Duke losing no way! Duke will win the whole thing:yes:

Maxvla 03-13-2002 11:00 AM

im out on a limb w/ maryland/marquette
but duke will get beaten. they just arent as good as they have been.
illinois plays a real physical game like ou and will beat kansas i think just like ou did in the big 12 champ.

alpine3069 03-13-2002 01:40 PM

here is mine!!

almost 95% of your picks are the higher seed wins.

Duke cannot control Kansas. they just arent physical enough.
Kansas won't make it that far i dont think.
#12 Missouri is a favorite over #5 Miami. and they match up well.
The #4 Kentucky /#13 Valpo game is going to be close.

#6 Texas is playing at home in dallas and will win. #11 boston college has no chance.

# 7 Wake Forest's best player has an ankle injury and may not play. #10 Pepperdine wins this one.

#8 Stanford/#9 Western Kentucky will be a battle of the centers. stanford's is partially injured. W Kentucky's is known as the next Shaq. so...

#6 Texas Tech won't make it to the fourth round.

I am glad virginia was left out. they are struggling in the NIT.

#1 Duke is similar to #1 Kansas. #2 Oklahoma can control them.

One thing... if Oklahoma beats Duke and Cincy on the way to the finals they will have beaten every #1 seed at some point this year.

alpine3069 03-13-2002 07:59 PM

well that is how i see it!! you never know what will happen, some teams play up and some don't!! Duke is one of the most experienced teams in the tournament!!

tightteg52 03-13-2002 11:07 PM

I see maryland winning it all! After getting screwed out of last years acc tourny they have somthing to prove! And Duke is to confident i think they are out bye final four elite eight is were they get elminated! but this tourney sucks no UNC i dont care as long as duke dont win im happy!!:yes: :yes: :yes: :yes:

hmm Wake forest on top!! just one of many of may picks that you think are wrong winning! Kentuckey crucshed their team!! but Miami was upset!;(

Maxvla 03-14-2002 08:08 PM

i knew miami would. kentucky shows up sometimes and sometimes not. oh well.
i hope kansas gets beaten holy cross has them 44-41 in the second.
lots of wrong picks on mine. oh well first time ive ever filled out a bracket.

Maxvla 03-14-2002 08:12 PM

it seems it doesnt matter what seed you are... anyone is beatable so its very hard to pick this year. there are no definate wins.

alpine3069 03-14-2002 08:44 PM

gonzaga lost!!!! i can't beleive it!!!! OMG!

Maxvla 03-14-2002 08:48 PM

dang... holy cross gave kansas all they wanted...

alpine3069 03-14-2002 09:02 PM

USC going to OT!! oh ya! i am still like 50% in the 1st round but no they lose in OT!!!:mad:

Maxvla 03-14-2002 09:31 PM

alpine3069 03-14-2002 09:36 PM

2000Pimpinex 03-16-2002 03:25 PM

Duke almost got
but ended up pulling it off!

Maxvla 03-16-2002 05:57 PM

well as of right now i am 25-11. not bad.
ive got kentucky picked to win today but i hope tulsa can pull it off.

alpine3069 03-16-2002 11:41 PM

well i was at 95% on espn until last night when all but one of my pics LOST!!!! i was like 20 points from the lead but now i am at 45%!! how bad is that from 95 to 45 ;( ;(

Maxvla 03-18-2002 12:33 AM

through the first 2 rounds i am 36-13. (repicking from the correct winners for the 2nd round choices) which is about 74% correct.

I did pick UCLA over Cincy and Kent State over Alabama.
Also Texas over Miss St.
My only two miss-picks of the 2nd round were stanford over kansas and georgia over southern illinois.

my sweet sixteen picks are:
Duke over Indiana
Pitt over Kent State
Missouri over UCLA
Oklahoma over Arizona
Maryland over Kentucky (dang this ones almost too close to call)
UConn over Southern Illinois
Illinois over Kansas (another close call)
Texas over Oregon

We'll just see what happens... ;)

Maxvla 03-18-2002 12:38 AM

by the way.. i hope noone picked cincy to win it all... one of my friends did and he's crying... lol.

2000Pimpinex 03-19-2002 03:04 PM

Kentucky, Kentucky, Kentucky

Its great to see them win and UC loose. Everyone at work is crying cause Cincinatti lost. haha

I guess Maryland is next.

SPEED 03-20-2002 02:38 AM

Well my team Michigan State hasn't done jack this year but you will see them in the Final 4 next year and taking the national title again the year after:yes: As for the rest I waned Cinncy to win it all but they got fu*ked when it came selection time, they should of had dukes bracket! Dukes goin down, just watch:cool:

Maxvla 03-21-2002 08:56 PM

well i picked duke to win vs indy but im glad they lost!
i'll happily take that hash mark in my loss column.
oklahoma mopped the deck with arizona for 21pts.

go crimson and cream! go big 12!

tightteg52 03-21-2002 09:20 PM

GO UNC!!!!! err we were 8-20 we sucked!

you know whats worse then being 8-20? being beat by a 8-20 team!!!

Maxvla 03-23-2002 06:14 PM

Sooners in the Final Four. Two games away from destiny.

i can't believe the amount of fouls in the ou-mizzou game.
that was absolutely pathetic on the part of the officials.

Bring on Indy or Kent.

Kansas beats Oregon
Maryland walks on UConn.
I'm pickin Indy.

alpine3069 03-23-2002 11:36 PM

well i don't know who to pick now!! IMO it is a toss up!

Maxvla 03-24-2002 12:48 AM

easy... pick oklahoma.

tightteg52 03-24-2002 09:53 AM

GO TURTLES GO TURTLES!!!!!!!!!! maryland WILL win it all!

Maxvla 03-26-2002 02:07 AM

oklahoma wins it all... both men's and womens.
oklahoma is kicking ass in sports these days. football champ 2000, both men's, women's basketball in final four (the only school to have that) high ranked wrestling, golf, track, softball, baseball, and gymnastics. you can't ask for much more than that...

20civic01 03-26-2002 07:58 PM

Boomer Sooner again!
