This is the only time of year I even care about basketball.

Perhaps not surprisingly I actually led the FR tournament challenge on Yahoo for a minute. (currently tied for 2nd)

How are you doing with your picks.

I have 37 points so far. That MI State loss killed me.

I really need UConn, Ohio St and Villanova to win today.

I am developing a theory that upsets occur in the tourney because of the different dynamic on dark horse teams. Whereas a team like my Orangemen, and Pitt, Kansas etc rely on stars making individual plays, smaller terams like Bradley are forced to learn much better team skills to compete.

In the Tournament, the star-laden teams can be shut down or have sub-par games while the smaller teams with good execution of team skills never loses that ability.
