    I picked Old Dominion, then forgot about it.  I was watching the game and actually rooting for Butler!

    I also picked Penn State in a (slight) upset, Vanderbilt (to go to the semis - ouch!), and of course, Louisville.

    went stone cold late in the game. Going to be tough to win my bet from here. Jimmer is better at dishing the assists than I expected for a shooter.
