I'm up against the giants tomorrow, but they're coming to my homes: Butler at UWBG, UCONN at UL. I hope to take one of them.

Go TurTLE
Go TurTLE

Yes, Jacksonville's nine gaming winning streak was ended, but the Dolphins will bounce back and win the conference and tourney. Sorry Belmont, tough luck East Tennessee State.

I actually am surprised that the game is this close. Although Turtle is a late bloomer, if you can call it a bloom, he's still only 75 down. That can be made up in 3 weeks of regular season, or much quicker in post season.

It should be crazy once conf tourney's start, and head to heads are every day. I think it is fair to say that the only player who is likely out for sure is Musashisan. Even HippieD with his Murray Sts, Western Michigans, and Nebraskas has UCONN.

The two brothers are neck and neck at 179, both trailing to their superior younger brother in 4th (soon to be 3rd)

Musa's Penn St. faces fellow newcomer Michigan (Akaoni) plus Wisconsin; Oregon St. faces the Arizona/Arizona St combo.

Hippie's Nebraska and Gunz's Missouri both face Texas; Gunz's Cincy goes up on Georgetown;
Boaris' Austin Peay faces Murray St on Saturday, while Providence draws both Villanova and West Virginia;
Michigan (Akaoni) gets UCONN on Saturday that will be a bracket buster for them.
