I can't tell you how impressed I am by Marquette at the moment. I love the fact that they ruined everyone's bracket by beating Kentucky. I was probably more impressed by them beating Pitt, though. Pitt looked unbeatable. Suddenly, my picks are alive again.
Not bad for one of the only people whose pick to win it all lost in the first round. I took an 8 seed (Oregon) figuring if they win it, I'd win the Grand Prize and be a super-genius. Only one 8 seed has ever won the tourney (Villanova) and I actually thought it was going to be Oregon that upset Kentucky, not Marquette.
So I figured I had no chance, but now I think if Oklahoma wins it all I can tie for #1. So I'm with Kenny now: GO SOONERS!
Not that it matters, of course. But I was expecting to wind up in last place after Oregon lost so soon.
Marquette has impressed my the most in the tourney, followed by Michigan State.
