My biggest upset is in the second round with G. Washington taking out Duke. <p>I know a tie is a lot like kissing your sister, but think of it more like kissing a really hot step-sister.</p><i></i>

Bama leading Marquette by 15 now. Excellent. Before even the evening games there could be a good handful of upsets.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :smokin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smokin.gif ALT=":smokin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>"Dream as if you'll live forever; Live as if you'll die today." --James Dean</p><i></i>

Tennessee by 2 with .4 left. Unless a miracle happens, I think Winthrop will be kicking themselves over the last handful of trips down the court. <p>"Dream as if you'll live forever; Live as if you'll die today." --James Dean</p><i></i>

Little Too Crazy

Post by EREmpireStrikesBack »

What about Montana over Nevada? That'd be a decent upset, they are up by 6 with 5min left right now.<br><br>I'm sorry, but what the heck were Tennessee players jumping around on the court for after that shot? You are a #2 seed! I know it was a close game and that, but you were HEAVILY favored to win. A little celebration is ok, but it looked like they just made the Final 4.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>Elk River AA State Champions- 2001 Boys & 2004 Girls</p><i></i>
