I considered them. I took Auburn. My logic was stay in the 4-6 seed range for first round and on UConn’s bracket since those teams won’t likely make a miraculous run to final four and leave me in a tight spot. You already took BYU and it’s lame to have the same pick in the first round when so many teams are available. San Diego State sounded like a place people go to school to enjoy nice weather and meet hot girls not play basketball and Auburn was playing Yale so I went Auburn.

Highly scientific strategy.

Still a big upset.

I didn't give any thought to what was down-bracket. If I survive to the next round I should probably do that.

It could get interesting if we have a lot of players reach final four or championship game.

I almost went TCU to really build up those tie-breaker points. They're pretty heavy favorites as a lower seeded team.

On another note. The field is not looking good for me in the MVP wager. Jokic 35 points and 16 rebounds against the TWolves last night. Ant Man had a great game but Joker still outplayed him. Ugh,

Luka's been awesome, though.

Yes but not last night. Well points wise. He had alot of rebounds and assists.

Didn't Jokic say that Luka should win MVP?

I haven't caught up on the last few days of basketball yet. I heard Kyrie made an insane game winner.

Of course he would. Those two are like frick and frack. I don't actually know who frick and frack are but I know it's a thing old people say when two people are close. So I am embracing my inevitable oldness.

I bet @siggy47 knows who frick and frack were. Not calling you old Siggy, just saying you are well versed in history.
