not as much interest I expected, but hey, the seven of us will have a go at it.

National Champion Picks:
Connecitcut - 3 peoples
Stanford - 1
Oklahoma State -  1
Kentucky - 1
Pittsburgh - 1

Didnt really check anyones picks except the final fours, surprised to see so many North Carolinas in there (myself included)

nope, get out in 45 minutes, then skipping class to watch games/sleep since I didnt get much sleep last night and had a helluva lot of whiskey. btw Leith, Dark Star was phenomenal.

I wanted to take Manhattan because picking against the Gators has been the easiest thing to do for 4 years running..they are the new Kansas.  If Florida was playing anyone else I woulda picked against them, but I saw Manhattan\'s first round game last year against Oklahoma State and the Jaspers didn\'t even put up a fight, so couldn\'t take them.   Oh well.  I had Florida losing in round 2, so no big loss there.

Yea, thats just a rough estimate, I wont know the exact figures until Monday when the guy sends us all the scores and money breakdown. But it\'s $20 a pop and two offices (North Haven and Boston), so it\'s usually like 200+ people in it. Last year top 6 got $$$, first place was like $1350 or something, I finished 7th, lol.

Caution:  First-round victories do not ensure future success!

I\'ve run a lot of pools, and having the lead at the end of the first weekend is meaningless.  Just about everyone has an equal shot after the first 2 rounds, unless your champion got knocked out.  Your big picks must still come through!  19/20 is pretty impressive though.  I got Pacific today.
