I can't do any pools like this if Notre Dame is involved because I can never get myself to pick against them.

52 and counting... Less than 16 hours to tip off!

I'm traveling to Rochester tomorrow, so G/L to all!

You should probably reconsider this thinking.

They are in dire need of Adrian Dantley right now.

How 'bout Orlando Woolridge? He was Louisiana HS player who enjoyed success in both South Bend and NBA.

P.S. I had 15 of 16 first day and it has been downhill since. Two OT losses by one point and where I picked lower seed to prevail, zip, notta, nuthin'... Good luck to leaders from midpack "hanger" here.

this one's surprising for me... out of all the brackets I have, the one on here is my absolute worst!

best one's got 38 points, but in another pool...oops... should've copied it.
