Browns Board Madness 2021

Notes on the bracket:

Big Ten has  10 teams from what I can see.  They also have  4 of the Top 8 seeds. 

Three Ohio schools in it:  Ohio St.  Ohio U.  Cleveland State.     Last time CSU was in at about this same seed....they made the Sweet 16. 

Besides the Big 10s 10 teams:   Big 12 has 6,  SEC  6,  ACC  6,  Pac 12  5.   I am not sure about the Big East as I am not sure what schools are in that conference now. 

Also note: NO Duke.   NO Kentucky.   N. Carolina only an 8 seed.   Kansas a 3 seed,  UConn a  7 seed.  Villanova a 5 seed.   Screw the "Blue Bloods". 

At least 2 teams are going to the tournament for the first time ever:  Abilene Christian,  Grand Canyon.  could be others.

You don't have to pick the 4 "play-in" games so there is still time to get in on the fun.

 

Greg... please work your screen-name into your bracket name so Z knows who gets credit for the win. ;)

Couple really good games yesterday in the "First Four" pairings headlined by UCLA over Michigan St. in OT.

MSU and their motion offense looked unbeatable much of the game , but UCLA has two stars and a bunch of good role players. They are gonna give BYU all they want on Saturday.

Holy shit I watched the game in the bar just here, that’s a huge upset right? 
 

Id like to know the pre match odds if anyone knows 

Yes big upset. A 15 seed over a 2. 
 

We need another 15 over 2 upset with the Cleveland State Vikings over Houston

Thought they’d made that 3pt right at the end. What happens if it’s still a tie after OT?

You play on until there's a winner.

Oh something from ncaa.com.  https://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-men/article/2021-02-25/what-march-madness-looked-year-you-were-born

1950 - CCNY (24-5)

Keep going.  Longest OT game in history:

On Dec. 21, 1981, the Cincinnati Bearcats defeated the Bradley Braves 75-73 in seven overtime periods at Robertson Memorial Field House in Peoria, Illinois. It took 75 minutes of game time (35 of which came after regulation) to determine a winner.

:D ... of course I had BYU as well... 

UCLA at #11 and #14 Abileen Christian have to be two of the lowest seeds to ever meet in the 2nd round.

Two  10+  seeds have made it to the Sweet 16 just today:

#11 Syracuse  and   #15 Oral Roberts continues their Cinderella run, beating Florida.

#10 Rutgers was  thisclose to making it,  but they choked a lead away with  like 30 seconds to go. 

Tomorrow at least a 3rd  10+ seed will make it with either  UCLA or Abilene Christian going. 

Hopefully #13 Ohio U  will also make it through. 

(of course....calling  11 seeds  UCLA and Syracuse "Cinderellas"  doesn't really seem right....but that is the way it is this year.

I'd bet B.Y. Sue is finer than this holy nag.. image.jpeg.69ae39cb35846405386ee1b0b4e0d29d.jpeg 

Sister (fine) Jean's 🤭 Chicago Loyola takes down her whole State, while leaving Gumby's small lead down to... how far can Baylor go ? 

Stay tuned and good luck everybody !
