No. But after BYU beats Syracuse today, I picked them to beat the Turtle on Saturday.

ah, I think I may have to reconsider my love for the Big 10. Not looking good. Damn. This is the last time I do a "give the Big 10 the benefit of the doubt" bracket.

i have e. tenn. state and western michigan winning too. . .i have western michigan going to the sweet sixteen, too! murray state has their work cut out for them since their second leading scorer is suspended for this game.

i know someone on here must want a part of this. . .

2004 NCAA FAVORITE LINE UNDERDOG O/U
March 25 St. Joseph's 2.5 Wake Forest 156.5
March 25 Oklahoma St. 2 Pittsburgh 127.5
March 25 Syracuse 1.5 Alabama 134.5
March 25 Connecticut 8.5 Vanderbilt 140
March 26 Duke 7 Illinois 145.5
March 26 Texas 2.5 Xavier 142
March 26 Georgia Tech 4 Nevada 149.5
March 26 Kansas 4 UAB 154.5

i'll take xavier and the points. . .and the over on duke/illinois.

i think the line isn't giving georgia tech much respect and giving st. joe's too much.

OSU is my pick to win it also against Duke. My upset picks didnt do well this year. W. Michigan = loss, S. Illinios = loss, Dayton = Loss. Luckily is still a few teams in it still.
