Neowin's NCAA Tournament Pick 'Em


Recommended Posts

I'd dont know if anybody went to any of the 1st and 2nd round games, but my Dad and I went to the opening round games in Charlotte. Probably the most fun i've had in a long while.

We had seats in the upper level, but there were actually some good seats, we were in the corner and had a great view of the court. Sadly I was surrounded by a bunch of Carolina fans. In both of Duke's games the Carolina fans bandwagoned on the Delaware St. and Mississippi St. It was fun though, all the Carolina fans talking smack, but it was more fun dishing back.

Well, I've got 2 Final Four teams left, which is what I usually get every year (Illini, UNC).

Georgia Tech let me down. Totally flat against Louisville (a very good but overrated team). Syracuse...blah. I half expected Florida to lose, Nova is a good ballclub and the Gators were just too reliant on the 3-pointer.

The only one that really irritates me now is Duke. Miss. State had them but they made some stupid shot selections and had some dumb turnovers.

Oh well. The way Ronald Ross is playing right now, Texas Tech could be in the title game.

NC State vs UNC in the Elite 8

Even though they won 2 games already, State is dangerous, should be interesting. NC State owes a big thanks to Wake for getting them into the tournament when Chris Paul tried to get some from Julius.

I have 3/4 left that can make it to the final 4. Unfortunately the team I had picked to win is also the one I don't have anymore (stupid Kansas...)

I have 3 out of 4 left in CHicago (missing UW-M), in Albuquerque i only have Washington left, in Syracuse i have UNC and Nova left, and Duke and UK in Austin. Half of my Final Four is left with UNC and Ok. St. It's been an interesting tourney.

all i gotta say is go big ten!  3 teams in the sweet 16, from the so-called "worst" major conference.  :)

Especially when you have Wisconsin play three straight games against double digit seeded teams :pinch:

    • Thanks Microsoft but no, I find both iterations of Outlook terrible nowadays and switched back to Thunderbird at home.
    • Happens to the best of us, bro. 😛 
    • Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.
    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
