Cinderella Run Over

Posted on by

Michigan St. and Duke pulled away late to advance to the Elite 8.  It was fun watching Northern Iowa while we could.  2 of the 3 Big 10 teams lost today.  No changes due to Michigan St’s win but 2 more were eliminated with Duke’s win, leaving 33 vying for money.  Only 12 can win 1st.  Suznana was the only one to pick Michigan St., but she was already eliminated.

If you want to know which of the 128 remaining possible outcomes winning money, post a comment here or on the discussion board.  For example, GoTerps possible winning outcomes are already posted there.

Midwest in Shambles

Live from the Home Depot Center in Carson!  Tennessee made its first Elite 8 in defeating Ohio St.  In the Midwest, a #5, #6, or #9 team will make the Final Four.  The Vols win eliminated 10 brackets and 8 from winning 1st.  Baylor dominated St. Mary’s, sparked by an early 30-7 run, and will face either Duke or Purdue.  Baylor knocked Larzby from 1st and now You’re My Boy Blue is in first followed by Another Two-Peat.  Just 35 now can win money and only 13 can win 1st.

It’s Over?

Well, for me, at least.  Eliminated once again on the first day of the Sweet 16.  But the Kansas St.-Xavier game finally ended after 2 OTs.  Larzby, the defending champ, is in first, going 4-0. 

I traded half-price Todai’s for missing possibly the best game of the tourney, but considering the team I wanted (Xavier) lost and the Kentucky-Cornell was a rout, I’m happy with the dozens of sushi I ate.
