2021 NCAA Tournament Open Thread

Morehead State putting up a fight against W. Virginia here. Be somewhat interesting if they were eventually matched up with Oral Roberts.

Moorehead hitting circus shots. A headband team hitting circus shots is a fun combination.

Yea Ohio st and Purdue got me good. Missed free throws. Neither of them should have been in that position.

Frustrating cause Iā€™ve been spot on in a lot if upsets so far.

Can Rutgers beat Houston? I took it in a lot of brackets, but Iā€™m regretting it a bit. Houston is pretty damn good.

Also Iā€™m riding Oregon deep for better or worse, hopefully they make me look smart.

I donā€™t think so, no.

Nightā€™s done. Both these games are cooked :fried_shrimp:

Lol ā€œa lot of my bracketsā€

Rutgers is good at mucking it up so if they can pull Houston down to their level, they have a shot. Theyā€™re not a great offensive team though which is unfortunate.

You know, at this point, they could do a lot worse than trying for Kirk Ferentz. Even at age 65. Iā€™d take 5 to 8 years of that guy with better talent.

The states of Indiana and Kentucky each had just one team in the tournament, and both have already been eliminated.

Texas is apparently now the center of the amateur basketball universeā€¦

Gotta do mutiples. Particularly when others are in huge pools.

Gotta hedge picks ect.

That Ohio st loss was so frustrating to watch, they tightened up. They were clearly getting better looks/ dominating the glass late in the second half but they just choked it away.

North Texas at least was outplaying Purdue imo for most the game. Getting better looks ect.

Still if both of them hit ft the big ten and my brackets are looking good. Also first time all year I saw Washington play like crap. They really had a nice team.

Well, I went like 3/16 so Iā€™m feeling just as confident as you. Plenty of people could go 13/16; you have to have a special bracket to do so poorly. I donā€™t think I could recreate that if I tried.
