Nothing Too Special

So, turns out I was way off the mark with that OSU pick. I figured they’d keep hitting 3s, and find a way to at least semi-contain G-town’s big men. Boy was I wrong. That loss puts me at 4-4 overall for the tournament, but still up 0.76 units, thanks to some good line shopping.

As for the draft pool, you can still see the results at http://ncaa.f2f2s.com and you can see that Klein is out in front right now with a dozen points. However, I’m hard pressed to pick a winner right now. Yeah, Klein has the most points, and 4 teams still alive, but one of those teams is Bradley, and the other 3 are all in the same regional, meaning he’ll lose at least 2 of them in the next two rounds. He’s guaranteed 1 point, and could get 3, which he probably will, but still loses 2 teams in the process.

Steve’s done. He has 3 teams left, 2 are playing each other, and the 3rd is playing UConn. Little Klein is hurting too. He has Duke, and they could be good for a few more points, but Wichita State isn’t getting more than one more (and hopefully none). Els has UConn, BC and WVU. Those are some solid teams, but he’s in last place right now, and will probably lose WVU to Texas. He’s gonna need a deep run from UConn and BC.

As for me, I’ve got Texas, Memphis, LSU, and George Mason left. If Arizona had made some layups, and not called that stupid timeout, I could have 5 teams left, be tied for first, and have the win pretty much guaranteed. My chances come down to a 2 games, since Memphis and Texas should both win. If I can get one more point out of GMU, I’ll be really happy. And, if LSU can beat Duke like I picked in my bracket (the whole reason I drafted them) then I’ll be able to squeeze out one more point from them before I have LSU and Texas meeting each other in the elite 8. Then, obviously, I’ll hopefully have one of those 2 and Memphis meeting in the final 4.
