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.

I almost went TCU to really build up those tie-breaker points. They're pretty heavy favorites as a lower seeded team.
Ouch famous last words. On the bright side you won the pick em.

Stupid Vegas! My gut told me Mormons can't play basketball.

I was reading an article late last night that said 11 seeds are the new 12 seeds, who were previously known for early round upsets. Guess it was so.
