Ouch gonna knock out one of my teams right off the bat, my picks are playing against each other, mind you got Baylor as a pick

 

I'll swap ya Gonzaga for Baylor..

or will swap Gozo for any Big Easter

Gonzaga for Notre Dame would be a fair trade too. you might want to send a Private Message or email to make a trade offer since many players don't read this thread regularly after they enter.

I have no idea of the teams I choosed are good or not...

 

what is the 10 seed.... ??? Does it mean that they are not so good and the 1 seed is the best in the area??

number 1 seeds are the best teams. however, the 1 seeds do not always make it through the tournament to the FINAL FOUR! often the are beaten by another team, we call these tough underdogs...a "cinderella team"...because they went to the big dance and stole the limelight from all the other princesses! :)

as already mentioned in the original post, the overall winner of the tournament will receive the Honu Turtle Geocoin in polished silver. the runner-up in the final game will receive a Blazing Sun Micro Geocoin in their choice of Gold, Silver, or Copper finish. i will then select from the remaining Blazing Sun Micro finishes at random to send to the other two FINAL FOUR teams. these are very nice micro's, and if you haven't seen one, here is an ALMOST LIFE SIZE picture:

Hmm... Florida didn't go far! :D So that's the end for the team? One game and out? WOW!

 

St. Mary continues?? WOW!! But now they play with Villanova?? Oh!

 

The funny is that we had a village called Villanove here in Rhodes! The village still exists with the name Paradeisi (the airport of Rhodes is there!)

 

IT is a very old village! Probaboy Byzantine or Medieval.... or even older!!!!

Paradeisi actually means paradise! B) During the Italian occupation of the dodecanese islands, the village used to have the name Villanova!

an interesting story, Gatoulis. Paradeisi or Paradise must have been a very beautiful place! :lol:

 

if it makes you feel any better...Florida lost in 2 overtime periods! they fought very hard, but BYU had too many weapons in the end. it was a good game! Villanova almost lost to the little school, number 15 Robert Morris! the final score...Villanova 73, Robert Morris 70. number 4 Vanderbilt loses to number 13 Murray State! wow...many upsets!...its madness! :D
