Thursday Update #1

The first three games have been completed, and so far I am 3-0 on both my bracket and my picks against the spreads. I haven't watched any of the games since I am at work and trying to look productive, but I have been following them with the live scoring updates on ESPN.com. I agreed with most people who thought Texas Tech shouldn't have been in this tournament, and didn't see them winning against BC, even though BC isn't the strongest team out there. BC was only favored by 3 and won 84-75. I know nothing about Maryland or Davidson. This one looked like a close game up to the last few minutes, but Maryland, 7 1/2 point favorites ended up pulling away at the end and winning by 12, 82-70. Game number three involved Louisville and Stanford. Some people were actually saying this could be an upset game, and I don't understand it. Stanford is not good, and Louisville was basically playing at home, only a couple hours away in Lexington. Plus they were only giving 6 points! Free money! Louisville was up 26 at halftime and managed to maintain it for the most of the second half, winning 78-58.
More Updates to follow.............
