revkev 22,560 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 So in real college sports - you know where the players aren't paid or paid for - and do not start because I have solid insider info on it - the Lady Huskies demonstrated to Virginia how a 1 seed takes care of business. Of course they have to listen to their coach because if they don't it's next woman up. The insider info I have is committed n sense - woman's teams don't via payouts because there's not enough money to justify the expenditure. The picture my insider paints is that if a hoops or football program has recruited a four or five star recruit they've paid someone, somewhere for the right to contact him. It's pretty much the picture we saw from the FBI report. There's way more of the same out there. This was just one agency.

tehuti 557 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Today is the day my bracket falls apart. It is going to get busted too, unless a 6-seed can overtake a 3-seed.

00sportsman 2,277 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 So if all our brackets get busted together, then are they really busted? Mine was in awful shape when Arizona lost but I now have new life since UVA went down too. Based on what I've been seeing on SportsCenter all year, the bracket was destined for this many upsets....it's just so darned difficult to pick which ones. I saw a fun snippet on Twitter this morning: out of ESPN's 1.73 million brackets, there's exactly one that got EVERY PICK WRONG in the first round. That's practically Hall of Fame worthy. One of the funniest comments was "they were reckless enough to pick Penn over Kansas but still had Arizona winning" Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy That's the way I look at it. Most "upsets" will upset most people, which means most brackets are basically the same. A busted bracket only matters if you're trying to be perfect. You only have make bogey if everyone else makes double. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk 1 Quote I always try to remember that I'm not good enough to get mad!

StrokerAce 10,783 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 You also have to take into account the scoring. If it's weighted each round then it changes things dramatically. i.e. one final four pick(16 pts)=sixteen first round picks(1pt) BTW- I wish the rev would stop trying to pee in my Cheerios...

Berg Ryman 3,866 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 CUSE!!! Sure, I didn't pick them, which feels wrong, but they took out alot of brackets from contention. I've got 7/8 elite 8 teams, and my whole final four still in this thing. I'm feeling decent about my chances.

Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy The NCAA tournament is like the Masters. You have the right mix of underdogs and big names and leave the middle out. So there's bound to be early round upsets but in the end the names will rise to the top. Duke, Kentucky and Kansas are still in, that's all CBS and the NCAA cares about. Plenty to carry the TV ratings and the upsets just create more intrigue. No different from WWF only there the party company's know it's fixed. I am enjoying it when I watch. The Gonzaga game the other night reminded me of the old Big East. I'd love to see them win it all because that's not who the NCAA would prefer. To be sure I don't believe the individual games are fixed just that the system is rigged to almost insure a great leader board. Exactly like the Masters. Wait doesn't CBS cover both?
