Good info. Wouldn't surprise me if he fails to score double digits against the Wolfpack.

Wonder how soon Jack Gohlke becomes the model for a Marvel super hero, with that sharply edged hairline, nose, jaw and chin?

Fun Fact: Kampe’s salary for this season is $329,609, the general counsel’s office said. Kentucky coach John Calipari’s basic annual pay for this season is scheduled to be $8.5 million. 3 KU assistants make more than Kampe.

The announcer jinx did-in Florida Atlantic. Ian Eagle mentioned how the guy at line is an 86 percent FT shooter. Less than a minute to play in regulation. He wound up missing the front end of a 1-and-1, which opened the door for Northwestern to tie the game to send it to OT.

FAU did have one final possession in regulation with :08 with which to work but completely squandered it by failing to pass the ball and settling for a very ill advised shot attempt.

Northwestern opened a can of whoop-ass in OT and decimated FAU.

I'm tired of my picks being on the losing end of every single close game and every single meltdown. I still haven't picked an 8/9 game correctly in 2 years now, and I'm on the verge of going 0/4 in the 6-11 games.

I desperately needed Florida.

100 points and they lose. What a joke. At one point in the 2nd half Colorado had made 16 of their last 18 from the floor and was shooting 90 percent from the line. Florida ties it and they lose because a shot bounces off the rim 4 times and drops for Colorado.

Stop fucking whining. It's the madness. Either enjoy the ride, or don't fill out a bracket.

Whining about torched brackets is all part of the experience.

I got banged up in the round of 64, but only two of my sweet 16 teams have been bounced so far, so I'm maintaining an optimistic outlook.

Colorado won thanks to a ton of trips to the free throw line and 28 makes. They were an outstanding 28 of 33 from the charity stripe as a team.

The announcer jinx cost Florida a crucial free throw late, when Kevin Harlan described the shooter as one of the best free throwers in the nation. Within two seconds of that proclamation, the player in question missed a free throw.

First year in forever I didn't do one. Oh well. I was hoping Oakland would fuck up that bracket. LOL.

For as long as I can remember, the WolfPack always fucked up my bracket. They either decimated my teams or got bounced in the first round when they picked them. The old Detroit Lions rules seemed to apply to me.

The refs - or at least one of the refs - bailed out Kansas and completely fucked over Samford last night.

Samford should've had possession down 1 with a chance to take the lead (and a possible victory) with a deuce. This phantom foul ruining a spectacular block was called with under 15 seconds to play in regulation.

The NCAA needs to change its moronic review rules. That call should've been reviewable.
