10/20 from 3-point land. Trail the Zags by 2 w/ the crowd (it seems) behind them.

They also have 8 blocks.

In other upset news, it looks like Oregon is going to take care of OK ST

I have Marquette in the elite 8 in 9/10 brackets.

However, it is so difficult to hedge bets (make the same picks w/ minor differences) so I got Pittsburgh, Oklahoma State & St. Mary's incorrect on all my brackets. I do have Pitt in the final 4 in one bracket but other than that I had St. Mary's & Pitt going down in the 2nd. I have Oklahoma State going down in the sweet 16 in all my brackets.

IIRC, you had Pitt upsetting Gonzaga which in hindsight wasn't a bad pick. Pitt had strong offense and defense ratings on the blind bracket thing--that is why I had in them in the final 4 in one bracket, I decided to pick the other of the first two powerful evenly matched teams then pick everything else the same as usual.

If I make it through these first 2 rounds ok, then I'll see how I'm doing going forward.

You only have 4 of 8 so far.

But don't worry, I may be perfect now but I always start out strong and fall out later.
