NFT: Bracket disruption. First Rd Upsets

I would have started this thread if he didn't - we always have an upset thread for the Final 4. The other thread is the selection thread. It's 2 different animules.

I have a hard time thinking Zona all the way - Zona, Zag, and Cinn always leave you at the altar banging your frikken head

I just hope it's Notre Dame on the court with them when Zona decides to bow out again.

RockyThompson/Cruzin isn't the only person to think UNC-Wilmington will knock off Virginia. It's a 12/5 game; they have an efficient offense, a Pitino disciple at coach, and hung tough with Duke last year. Plus a lot of idiots act as if we can't shoot. It has all the makings of a public 12/5 upset pick. It would be a foolish pick, but it's the tournament so chaos happens and making upset picks is a no-risk proposition.

But we all know why Rocky/Cruzin started the thread. It has been his schtick for years under multiple handles. Despite the constant pleas from the users saying "Rocky, we don't want you here," he has no place else to go and thinks that if he's the "unhinged asshole" of the group, at least he can say he's part of the group.

Winthrop will pose much of a threat. Their conference is shit right now and they rely pretty much on two players. A really small (but quick) guard who shoots something like 43% for 3's and a power forward. But the guard struggles against guys with size and Butler has that. Winthrop might stay with them for a half and hit some threes, but I see a 12-15 point win for Butler.

Concur with FMIC, not the best Winthrop team.

How bout Mount St. Mary's with the big win? NEC wasn't that bad a league this year.

The po-jama people are boring me to pieces
Feel like I am wasting my time
They all got flannel up 'n down 'em
A little trap-door back aroun' 'em
An' some cozy little footies on their mind

I don't need you, I don't need this, all I need is this ashtray
and that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this ashtray... And this paddle game. - The ashtray and the paddle game and that's all I need... And this remote control. - The ashtray, the paddle game, and the remote control, and that's all I need... And these matches. - The ashtray, and these matches, and the remote control, and the paddle ball... And this lamp. - The ashtray, this paddle game, and the remote control, and the lamp, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The paddle game and the chair, and the remote control, and the matches for sure. Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

HE HATES THESE CANS!
STAY AWAY FROM THE CANS!

Grant

Is USC going to have to see drop until they decide to guard the perimeter?
