Entered my bracket. That would be WSU over VCU, Indiana, Kentucky, Duke, Michigan St, and UNC. UCLA is the only blueblood missing from our march to the National Championship. :Yea!:

Give me Colorado St with an upset to start things off.

I wasn't sold on Murray State all year. Trailed CSU at the half, but have started the 2nd half better. If they win today, I think they lose on Saturday for sure.

Syracuse leads UNC-Asheville 22-21 with 7mins to play in the first half. Not much else is compelling right now.

25-22 UNC-Ash with 5:20 left i nthe first. The classic 16/1 scare game. I would be fine with the upset (however unlikely). I got Vandy!

#16 UNC-Asheville leads #1 Syracuse 34-30 at half. Love it.

Wow, these refs in the Syracuse game need to be investigated, travesty........goal tending, lane violation and out of bounds call, total joke.

Horrible calls down the stretch. Hard to believe this is an NCAA crew.

The lane violation in the Cuse game was actually a good call. However there were some other bad calls, most notably the out of bounds call that gave it to the Orange. Probably did not affect the outcome but I can see the frustration from an Asheville perspective.
