Doh! I forgot to finish my bracket last night and it just dawned on me when I saw the scores on espn.com. I guess I am out before any games finished.

I'm in and Big East teams suck (my bracket: Marquette - Sweet 16, Georgetown - Elite 8, and Notre Dame - second round)! All busted by lower seed teams.

Yeah, the Big East received a lot of respect judging from the seeds many of the teams received and they have fallen flat on their face. Their only win of the day was Villanova over Robert Morris (a 2 seed over a 15 seed) and Villanova was very fortunate to pull that one out in OT.

We'll see if the other 4 Big East teams can fare better today. Once again they've got a number of higher seeds playing today (Cuse-1, WVU-2, Pittsburgh-3, Louisville-9).

The Big East does really suck now! Five of eight are out including Villanova (one of my FF teams). Also Kansas (my team to win it all) got knocked off. I think this is the worse I ever did.

I am surprised at just how poorly the Big East is doing but expected Nova to bail in the 2nd ground. In fact I picked them to lose just got the team that would beat them wrong.

Kansas losing was shocking (I also had them winning it all). UNI was clutch but based on how they struggle with it, KU should have dialed up the pressure earlier. All of the upsets on the opening weekend are fun but hopefully they don't translate into lower quality games next weekend.

ACC isn't doing any better. 5 of 6 teams out. If Duke didn't get the easiest road, thus far, to the Championship they would be out too.

The BE Regular Season Champ, Cuse, and the BE Conference Champion, WVU, are still in it. The Cuse got what they needed, two wins to give them time to get their big guy healthy.

Some other great games: Wiscy getting pounded by Cornell, MD losing on a last second shot, Washington pounding the Lobos, and Wake getting prison raped by KY who wasn't using any KY.

The big losers in the tourney:
Kansas - being the first #1 seed to lose and the first #1 to lose in the second round since 2004.
Big East - 6 of 8 teams out
ACC - 5 of 6 teams out

Big East - 6 of 8 teams out
ACC - 5 of 6 teams out

Only two of the ACC teams were expected to make it to the sweet 16 based on seeding so I would hardly consider it shocking they only have a single team left. Maryland is only team that was an upset not making it to the sweet 16. Clemson disappointed in the first round as a 7 seed but that shouldn't shock anyone since Purnell has yet to win an NCAA tourney game there. However, GT and Wake were able to pull upsets based on seeds in the first round.

On the flip side, the Big East had a 3 and two 6 seeds upset in the first round and a 2 and 3 seed upset in the second round. The Big East has, by far, been the biggest disappointment.

Another Big East team (#1 Syracuse) got bounced by a lower seeded team (#5 Butler - mid major).

Next time I won't bet my $$$ on the Big East anymore.

We are down to 4 teams: MSU, Dukie, Butler, and West Virginia.

How are the brackets looking?
