NCAA BRACKET UPDATE 3

SATURDAY'S RESULTS-Everything went according to plan except my pick of LSU over North Carolina. When I filled out my bracket, I felt that North Carolina would win it all if they were 100 % healthy. Ty Lawson's toe injury is why I picked LSU to upset UNC. I figured the only way UNC would go out is if they went out early in the tournament bacause of the Lawson injury. LSU had a 5 point lead in the 2nd half, but UNC proved to be too much. Ty Lawson now has nearly a week to get back to 100 % and North Carolina is going to be next to impossible to beat.

SATURDAY'S RESULTS STRAIGHT UP-3-1 (There was only 4 games I could play because of previous misses in my bracket.) I did have Purdue, Villanova and Gonzaga advancing to the Sweet 16, but not against their opponnents today. I missed on Oklahoma, I had them losing to Clemson in round 2. I'm still looking OK having 11/16 Sweet 16 teams, 7/8 Elite 8 teams, and all Final 4 teams.

sounds like you are having a bad time with your bracket, but against the spread you are pretty much money. Thanks for doing the day-by-day tournament updates, they have been helpful. That was a ballsey pick with LSU and you almost hit it. Keep up the good work
