West Virginia

Notre Dame

Pittsburgh (twice)

Boston College

St. Joe's

Villanova is my cinderella this year :yes:

no way, spartans are tough, they almost beat unc at unc. plus izzo wouldn't let that happen. we all know the big east was overrated, beatin WVU, notre dame (even my team michigan beat ND ;)), and st. joes isn't much. even pitt is a stretch for a quality win, and there was a reason BC was the lowest ranked undefeated team (and when they finally got up there in the rankings, what did they do? lose like 2 of 3 or something...)

Ok, my picks are in.

I know I'm going to go down hard...I have maybe 3 good upsets for the first round, but you probably can't even call them upsets since the seeding is so close (St. Mary's, Iowa, NC State). And what's more, these are all 7 vs. 10 games. :no:

Personally, I don't think there will be a 5-12 upset this year. I sincerely doubt Tom Izzo will let his team fall into that trap. I guess New Mexico has the best chance but I've seen Villanova play some really good ball this year.

Sleeper pick for me is Georgia Tech. My Final Four is Illinois, North Carolina, Georgia Tech, and Syracuse. UNC over Illinois in the championship (I have a strange feeling, however, UNC could be the first top seed to go, judging by their very lame and pathetic ACC performance).

Everyone ready for tonight's opening round (its really a play-in but we'll let them have their illusions). Should be a thrilling barn-burner. And for the winner? A chance to be embarrassed on national TV by UNC. Yet, i'll STILL watch it tonight. I have a sickness.

get ready for tipoff!!

why is only cbs covering the games? this sucks.

is each region getting a different game? cuz if so, i'm gonna have to get my buddy at work to hack the satellite box so i can get every reagion up on a tv :p

Yeah it is gonna be regional so if you want to watch what you want when you want you may have to get "creative") ;) with that box. I'm sure if theres a close game and a blowout at the same time they'll show the close one but I know they screwed that up quite a bit last year. We'll see.

For those of us who don't have that luxury http://www.cbs.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/scoreboard for quick realtime updates and play-by-play. Very quick too. Maybe a four second delay. (Um ok its a bit slower than that now but still decent lol).

Edited by bigbluepride35

so what game do you ahve on right now? i'm getting e. kentucky vs. kentucky and i'm in los angeles.

/edit

damn, gotta love the intensity these underdogs bring. early on, they are both leading. (even if only for a short time)

Yeah i think Kentucky is the "spotlight" game so unless you're in a region with a team plying you'll get that. I have them too but I'm guessing that at 12:40 ill either get pitt/pacific (good) or Niagara/Oklahoma (bad) since i'm in new york.

/edit

Yup just switched to Pitt-Pacific. Should be a good game i hope. Wow gotta love Pacific's all-international team. Those names are brutal to pronounce lol

Any good updates about the games going on right now. I am at work cant see any of them.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

    • Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode.
