Talib Zanna looks legit for PITT and he's not even projected to be drafted by DraftExpress? I'll take him on the Red Claws if nothing else..!!

I hope no one picked Colorado! How are they getting slammed this badly?

Harvard putting in good work so far though.

Nope, I had Pitt winning that one.

Nope, i wouldnt call it yet.

With this Colorado team playing so badly, I would not use this as a measuring stick.

But you can see something.

I dont take a drastic upset team seriously until the 15:00 mark in the second half.

Harvard is still hanging in! I didnt pick em, but they are holding it down for Boston!

They are the "most picked" to upset a higher seed team.

They did it against UNM last year, they may do it again...

Whoops! I had no idea they were legit! At least i can feel super safe that Michigan St will gobble up the winner.

This might be the first year since I've been a kid where I actually haven't done a bracket.  Weird feeling.  Kinda cool not to be strapped to anything, though. 

Definitely pulling for Harvard here.

Took Harvard and the 12pts they brought. Hoping NC State does the same later tonight.

Nice win for the Crimson.

Amaker sure would look good patrolling the bench for the maroon & gold next season...

NC State is one of them "questionable" teams that made the cut.

As of now, it seems like a lot of those questioning them are looking like they are wrong.

Smaller and lesser talented opponent. Nonetheless, a 6-10 guy putting up 41 and hitting 4 threes is still a big time game. I really like Payne. Nice power forward.

Overtime! Wow!

If NC State losses the game, it will have been quite a choke job.
You have to hit your free throws.
