No one in basketball period plays a good 2-3 outside of Syracuse :) It can barely be called a 2-3. They should just call it the Boeheim. It's like if a 3-2 defense had a baby with a half court press, and that baby had a baby with a 2-3 defense.

Reason I never liked bucknell. Cause Fitzpatrick is a bum. Butler is shutting down mouscala and he isn't picking up the slack. Butler won't be upset by a team like bucknell.

Guy isn't an underrated center. Rated just fine. Zeke Marshall is way more underrated.

I know man. You and I may have our disagreements on how to manage our individual teams here.. But when comes to knowledge of the game, same page usually.

Dunno how anyone doesn't give butler cred to sweet 16s just off the coach and team alone. Willmen is the only reason game doesn't look lopsided right now.

Phewwwwwwwwwww...I am so glad I switched my pick last night to Butler. Bucknell was just an unproven team and deserved lower than an 11 seed. Reality check today and that goodness......I am still perfect early on!!!

How about that game between Marquette and Davidson? Golden Eagles down by 5 with 1 minute to go, but hit a 3 and a driving lay-up to win. Talk about saving my bracket. Oops, never mind, Pittsburgh lost to Wichita State.

Southern almost screwed 99.9% of Americas brackets so you can deal with the Pittsburgh loss

I had a bit of faith in Gonzaga to pull it out, especially when Kevin Pangos came up big with those clutch threes. Not sure if I have them advancing to the Sweet 16, though. They definitely do not deserve their #1 seed.

I can see Cal over UNLV. The game well be played in San Jose wich is basically a home game for Cal. Not only that, last time these two teams played, Rebels won on a Buzzer-beater shot. The bears still feel like they let that game slip, have some bad blood, and are determined they can beat UNLV. Of course Crabbe & Cobbs will need to step it up, and Cal will need to find a way to stop the man child --Anthony Bennett-- this time around. But I like the odds.


Called it. Also had Oregon and Wichita State advancing. I think the zags are ousted by either Wichita State or Wisconsin (sweet sixteen).
