I've got Mount St Mary's and NC State, I believe.

I like how these games don't even count in pools. Who has time to get all your ******* friends to fill out a bracket within two days? You always have the guy who only checks email every 3 days, lazy bastards, and the guy who apparently can't look at a bracket before asking his wife.

I think whoever wins that Nc State/Xavier game can upset St. Louis. Hoping it's Xavier.

Xavier statistically has the better chance of pulling the upset, though NC State's chances aren't that far behind.

This is my favorite yearly thread here on OS. Where is the close game alert picture at? This thread is not the same without it.

This thread has been a staple of my posting experience here. elicoleman, where did you go?

I actually think the winners of the #11/#11 and #12/#12 games have a chance to make a bit of noise in the tournament. Tennessee and Iowa are rated fairly highly in Kenpom and the NC State/Xavier winner gets a weak #5 seed in St. Louis.

The Mount must be blinded by those ugly uniforms.
