Yes. If UW makes it to the third round and you have them there, you get points regardless of who they beat to get there.

Ok ok, so like in the second round, I have UW playing Pitt. And I have UW beating Pitt. Even though Pitt just lost to Pacific, if UW beats Pacific, I still get the same amount of points?

Yes

wicked guys, thanks.

Anyway. So far, I'm 2 for 4. I thought I had picked Niagra, but I didn't. I've had Oklahoma on my Yahoo! one all along. So yeah.

She's 4 for 4. That sucks.

Correct:

Kentucky (next move ---> lose to Cincinnati)
Pacific (defeat Univ of Washington)
UW-Milwaukee (defeat BC)

Incorrect:

Niagara (I had them losing second round anyway)

3 for 4 so far. I picked Pittsburgh over Pacific. I'm really happy I took UW over Bama

This is a longshot, but what the heck-

I missed the deadline for setting my semis & final by 2 minutes (I threw my tantrum in another thread). All my other brackets are set. If yahoo still totals everything I have that's complete - the 4 regional brackets- could I stay in it for obner (cd?) purposes?

I'll call my semis here:

Illinois
Wake
Florida
Duke

Illinois over Florida in the final, 77-65.

Is this okay with you guys? If yahoo doesn't give me points for my regional brackets, I'll bow out- that would be too complicated. But if they do, figuring me in by hand from the final 4 on wouldn't be hard.

I won't win anyway, so this is probably for nothing. But I'd like to stay in the running, if I can.

Hey, does anyone object to this?

Not at all. It's fair. No advantage gained.

Is the prize a mix or a new cd?

God, Iowa can't buy a shot! Maybe Coach Steve can throw on a jersey during the break.

Damn East Coast bias caused me to pick Pitt. Least I had them getting beat by Washington.

two guns holla · **Posted:** Thu Mar 17, 2005 5:44 pm

I did two different sets of pick'ems, and am 3/4 in ours (stupid Pitt) and 4/4 in the other.

Andy, do we have the same brackets? You don't have Utah State in the sweet 16, do ya?

Yail Bloor · **Posted:** Thu Mar 17, 2005 6:01 pm

This Andrew Bogut from Utah is something else. Wanted to watch him b/c the Hawks are talking about drafting him. Whoa! He just drained a 3 from the top of the key! And he's 19 feet tall!

And I have Pacific beating Washington.
