I just don't understand why it's so damn  hard for these time keepers to do their job.  Literally, 2 seconds running off after whistles in the UCLA game now.

there's 1 perfect bracket left on yahoo and he has kentucky and ucla, but he has oregon in his final 4 so I'm not liking his chances after tomorrow

Stephen F. Austin was one of my 10 picks in the pool I posted about in the gambling thread.  Love that team.   Of course, I also took VCU, but that's because I believe that either of them can beat UCLA or Tulsa in the next round.
 
With some of my winnings from the parlay, l decided to roll the dice with some props in the Tulsa/UCLA game.   If any of you are looking for something to root for, here they are:

First half:  UCLA -4.5 - check!
James Woodard Over 17.5 points - looking good at 10
Kyle Anderson Over 15.5 rebounds and assists - pace a little short, at 7
Jordan Adams Over 17.5 points - pace a little short, at 8.
 
Good luck, Greg, I'm crashing.  Bummer about your Friars, I thought they had it.

I love UNC, but I still appreciate Weber State. Underdogs are cool.
 
Funny you should say that, watching Bryce Cotton was giving me the cold sweats and convulsions thinking about Harold Arceneaux.

I added a little second half parlay on UCLA -4 and the under at 77.  Good start by Jordan Adams to the half, now at 14 points.

Anderson won't stay another year with his dad wanting him to leave, but he should. He doesn't look anywhere near NBA ready.
 
Edit- Also the officiating just got terrible in this game. No calls for UCLA every touch foul called for Tulsa.

Georges Niang from Iowa State, broke his foot in tonight's game. Out for the tourney obviously. They could be in trouble, with UNC followed by UCONN/NOVA winner.

Well, hit the parlay (pays 3 to 1), hit the first half UCLA bet and hit the Jordan Adams bet.  Lost Anderson and Woodard bets.  All in all, won about 3 units.  Pretty darn good night.
