25% of the teams losing so far are in the SEC.

Florida and Auburn both go down in the final seconds.


Correction: SECSECSEC is 1-5 (not 1-6) with Aggy and Bama to go


Aggie won & Bama is going to win.
I still think Houston will win but I hope they can beat the Aggies Sunday.
I don't love their chances, they struggle with really talented players.

Watching the TCU v Utah State game & they just announced that so far 6 double digit seeds have won in the first round. Crazy!

That's what I had. Duke is pretty soft but really skilled. When they rise up and bring energy they have the guards to cause problems.

It's already a blowout. I switched to TCU v Utah State then Grand Canyon v St Mary's. Both are more interesting.

My bracket had Nebraska over Houston, but yeah I liked and still do either of those teams over Houston. Houston can't survive a team that is scoring. Aggy and Nebraska both love to score, Houston will fall to someone exactly like that before the final four.

Defense is really important and they're probably the best at it, but their offense is a liability and they just fail the eye test to me. I think they got a handful of lucky breaks in the regular season in games against TCU, Baylor, A&m and Texas that has their record looking a bit better than they actually are.

I love their discipline, I don't really love a lot else about the team, especially their lack of depth at this point in the season.

JMU up by 9 at the under 8;00 - if they hang on and win that would be the 7th double digit seed to win, welcome to the Madness!

James Madison looks really good. They're the type of mid-major the committee really doesn't know what to do with.

But that's a brutal 12-5 matchup for Wisconsin.

Duke didn't look great today against Vermont. They look pretty vulnerable to me.

TCU will likely fall, had them falling in my bracket so doesn't surprise me. Would have liked to have seen them make it through the first game just for the Big 12 persona, but can't say I'm sad to see them out.
