Any interest in an NCAA Lax Bracket? (2 Viewers)

FYP

LOL - I'd be so tilted

 

[detroitdad]

I guess I'm rooting for Virginia to win by less than 5 so I can steal them for future rounds.

 

[kirchhausen]

And Duke?!?

 

[krafticus]

Beat Army!!

 

[WedgeRock]

So to be clear - I am rooting for John Hopkins to win, or lose by only 1 to Notre Dame?

If John Hopkins wins, you have John Hopkins next round.

If John Hopkins loses by one, you have Notre Dame next round.

If Notre Dame wins by 2 or more, you're out.

I think that's the best outcome if you have an underdog. Plus, by not covering in Round 1, the favorite my get a softer line in the second round.

yep. I like this structure. Makes it a little more interesting.

Thanks for organizing it btw.

Playing at Marc's tomorrow night?

 

[WedgeRock]

Doubt it (but maybe...game time decision ). I have some errands to run tomorrow and I have a ton of work to catch up in, plus yard work, and Sunday is shot with Mother's Day...

Yard work? Don't you have kids? Put their asses to work.

Definitely torn on my matchup:

Duke - My team in this bracket and one of my favorite players that I had the pleasure to coach against - Joe Robertson who is an absolute stud

Richmond - Where I live, NCAA tourney win over Duke would be big for the program

 

[WedgeRock]

Joe Robertson

He can't be that good... Otherwise, his first name would by Chase, Colton, Decker, Hamilton, Gage, or Kaydin.

Hah I got ya. Well he plays like a "Joe" - worker, groundball machine

 

[Forty4]

I think that's the best outcome if you have an underdog. Plus, by not covering in Round 1, the favorite my get a softer line in the second round.

Or underdog wins outright then the spread in round two is much larger.

 

[WedgeRock]

Loyola won 15-13, @Forty4 is the first to advance to next weekend.

Yale is crushing Georgetown (7-0 with 8+ minutes left in the first).

 

[Forty4]

Forgot all about it.

 

[WedgeRock]

Georgetown is making a little comeback, but this face-off guy from Yale (TD Ierlan) is unreal. Quick clamp and then he's gone. He wins most of them to himself, but he'll also shovel it to his middies. Georgetown hasn't possessed the ball enough

 

[longflop]

Beat Army!!

that's fine, as long as its by two or less.....

 

[WedgeRock]

Yale barely covers the 2.5 spread, @WedgeRock advances.

 

[WedgeRock]

Penn takes down Army, 13-8. @krafticus advances, even after giving Army 3 goals.

 

[WedgeRock]

UVa a little too much for Robert Morris, and @Nuhockey advances.

 

[Highli99]

My game is tomorrow night! Go spiders.

 

[WedgeRock]

Four games today...

 

[MikesDad]

wish I had seen this earlier... I would have chipped in $20

#WeAre

 

[WedgeRock]

Even with the spread, it was not close. @kirchhausen advances.

 

[MoeTremper]

MD in OT. Wow!

Edit: @Perthmike already lost in this pool by the fact that it went to OT.

 

[WedgeRock]

Maryland in OT, but with the +2 spread, Charity survives and advances to next weekend.

 

[WedgeRock]

MD in OT. Wow!

Are you watching Richmond (+4.5) hanging with Duke in the first half?

 

[MoeTremper]

Are you watching Richmond (+4.5) hanging with Duke in the first half?

Yup. Just saw Duke go ahead.

 

[MoeTremper]

I'm out, but my brother's draw is still alive with Notre Dame. I like how during the MD-Towson game, the announcers were talking about the JHU-ND game and said that nobody could predict that game and "you should stay away from it unless you have a real gambling problem." Ha!

 

[WedgeRock]

Duke hangs on to win by one, but with the spread, @Highli99 advances.

1 more game to go this weekend.
