[QUOTE="HensonHall71, post: 1879254, member: 748389"] Maybe this year will be our time to pull an upset or two in the tournament - amazingly, I believe we've only beaten a higher seed one time in the history of the tournament and that was a 4/5 game. But if you are going to beat a one seed, the second round is the best time to do it (just ask us), the one seed doesn't have much time to prepare for you and they are usually overconfident in getting past the 8/9 seed. In a way it's kind of nice not to be an upset target for once - we literally have no downside this tournament - we're not even favored to win one game! Let's go win 6 of them! [/QUOTE]
