As Frankenstein's monster lives so does my bracket live, but how? Fearless predictions for one. Or stupidity. LOL! Well, it is all quite simple actually if you know me and how I feel towards certain universities , politics and such.
To begin with I just wanted the smart guys to win so that is why this person picked and predicted that Harvard would beat Cincinnati which they did; 61-57 was the final score. Besides being an avid supporter/fan/alumnus of Ŧexas Ŧech University, I will never side with the Cinnci' Bearcats after they hired coach (Tele-tubby) Tommy Tubberville. He is a nemesis to Ŧexas Ŧech Red Raider Nation! The way he did not care enough for our football program (never seemed to be fully into the whole bit) when he was HC for Ŧech and the cowardly way in which he left our alma mater to head to the east coast just presses on all of my nerves. Enough said about that idiot/fool! So, yeah, way-to-go Harvard Crimson.
Then since I am not a fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes, I just decided to throw the dice, per se, and picked Dayton. So the Dayton Flyers end up beating OSU by a score of 60-59 (buzzer-beater). In this household, we are supporters of Michigan St and mostly of Michigan (Madonna's alma mater) so if you know the rivalry between schools in the Big 10 conference then you might understand why one must pick one or the other. Especially if you know said rivalry between Michigan and Ohio St., then you would understand why lines are drawn and liking Ohio St. pits you against any reputable Michigan Wolverine. We pick the latter so this is why I picked Dayton.
Now...the NDSU Bison versus the Oklahoma Sooners. NDSU narrowly beat OU in this match by a score of 80-75. As a Ŧexas Ŧech person, I usually do not fully support any fellow Big XII universities. Especially not the Sooners (so freaking tired of 'Boomer Sooner') LOL! I might have picked OU had it been football, but this is basketball and the Sooners were doomed to be out of the #MarchMadness #BigDance 'sooner' or later so I picked sooner. No apologies as it simply is what it is!
The later game this evening had another fellow Big XII university right smack in the middle of the 'round of 64'...the Texas Longhorns up against the Sun Devils from Arizona St. I must say once again that this person would not usually pick another Big XII nemesis over another school unless the 'other school' is more of a pain in my side so-to-speak which anything related to Arizona is for me lately! Why Arizona? Because of one Governor Jan Brewer (R). I never met the woman, but from I have read and researched about her, she has little to no respect for undocumented people (I despise the term 'illegal immigrants' or the WB word). I hate and always will hate SB1070 which Brewer gladly supported and signed. Then don't get me started about what Arizona's Republican-dominated Legislature's tried to do to the #LGBT community with another detrimental bill --SB1062. The bill which supposedly was to give all business owners in AZ their 'religious freedom' but in turn it was just a bully-pulpit of sorts to allow businesses in AZ to discriminate against gay people. All in the name of G-d and religious freedom as I stated. What a bunch of malarkey and bull-shit. WTF. Are we not still in the post 1964/1968 era. Civil Rights were enacted long, long ago for a reason. My father was born in AZ and I did used to love that state, but until it gets its act together and stops bullying others around as they have, I boycott any ventures to the state. No support from me. Anyway, I picked UT to win this game which they did with a down-right buzzer-beat with milliseconds left on the clock. The Longhorns beat the Sun Devils by a score of 87-85.
It has gotten much too late now so I cannot wait for the outcome of the San Diego State Aztecs versus the New Mexico St Aggies game. I hope that SDSU wins or I officially become #bracketbusted. Go Aztecs.
