[QUOTE="Fighter of the Nightman, post: 1880408, member: 590800"] I'd love this (though an Indiana upset would not make me at all mad! lol...), but I don't think Maryland can outlast West Virginia from what I've seen so far. WVU looks like the better team, regardless of who is currently on a run. JMO. In my bracket, I have: [B][COLOR=rgb(209, 72, 65)]L[/COLOR][/B] #9 West Virginia over #8 Maryland [B][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]W[/COLOR][/B] #1 Purdue over #16 Fairleigh Dickenson (remember them??) [B][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]W[/COLOR][/B] #7 Michigan State over #10 USC [B][COLOR=rgb(209, 72, 65)]L[/COLOR][/B] #9 Auburn over #8 Iowa [B][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]W[/COLOR][/B] #4 Indiana over #13 Kent State [B][COLOR=rgb(209, 72, 65)]L[/COLOR][/B] #7 Texas A&M over #10 Penn State (what a CRAP draw for both teams!) [B][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]W[/COLOR][/B] #9 Illinois over #8 Arkansas [B][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]W[/COLOR][/B] #7 Northwestern over #10 Boise State So 5-3 for the Big Ten. I actually have every single Big Ten team except for Indiana losing in the Second Round, which makes me want to puke. I almost picked us over KU, though ... I have this weird feeling where I'm more nervous about a "one and done bust" today vs. a good Arkansas team, whereas if we win today and look good ... I'd start to really believe for Saturday. :cool: 🤞 [/QUOTE]
