    Agreed. Picking mid-level Big East teams that can't score is always a terrible idea. I thought that I had learned this already. Sad thing is I actually knew what kind of a squad Wichita State has (living here in Oklahoma), but I got sucked into Ken Pomeroy's statistical rankings once again (He has Pitt as the #8 team just below Kansas).

    The other thing that pisses me off is I just switched my Davidson pick back to Marquette this morning. I originally picked Davidson for the exact reasons I picked Bucknell, but decided to change it because I decided that Marquette would just be too athletic for them.

    Pitt has done this to me, multiple times, in multiple sports.... damn them. You heard it here first people... for the history of my life I will never pick Pitt ever again!

    Neither Pitt nor Wichita State was going to get past Gonzaga so it doesn't really affect anything.

    Let's hope this is true towards the end of the game...

    Yup, I had Pitt going all the way to the Sweet 16 in both of my brackets. Zags will get theirs sooner than later.

    Being fromCleveland I know better than to pick anything Pittsburgh related!

    Naw it's the tourney, forget your bracket (you're lucky to get half the games right) and enjoy the best basketball of the year! These kids are putting it all out there!

    well I am not literally going to punch one of them in the throat... or the entire school as a whole based on my comment... I am enjoying every second and anxiously tapping my foot at my desk as if my BA account depends on it.

    That was truly an amazing comeback for Marquette. And suddenly I'm glad I have them losing to Butler.
