I don't have them in the same region...I have them in the same pod. There's a difference.

Pisces, yours looks good. I don't see LSU playing Maryland. I think Maryland will be a higher seed than 11 IMO.
Posted on 3/15/09 at 4:38 pm to bubbz
Yeah, I fixed. Had the regions labeled wrong. Not sure how that got screwed up. Should be good now. Thanks for the heads up.

I hope you are right. I do NOT want to play them. We may draw BC, too. Depends on who committee has higher.

That would be funny if they did, though. They'd have to call offf the tourney until the committee redid them. Meanwhile, if it were two SEC teams...nothing to see here...move on.

Oh well. Yeah, I had some pods and regions just flat out not where I wrote them down. Copy and pasting fails.

Dood on the rant is saying lsu is an 8 playing butler in greensboro, fyi
Posted on 3/15/09 at 4:42 pm to PiscesTiger
yea maryland scares me. I think Temple could lockdown vasquez but they have alot of BIG game experience that I think would ultimately doom us. I wouldn't mind one of the bubble big 10 teams. I would not want to see any mid major ala St M, Creighton, and especially not VCU
Posted on 3/15/09 at 4:42 pm to BraveTiger225
i dont think that mizzou gets a higher seed than kansas, but thats just me.

Posted on 3/15/09 at 4:47 pm to bubbz
Why the F not?

There was a good thread about Pisces' bracket accuracy, so I used the same to test my own. I win.
