THIS is why I am freaking out, people
From the blog of the NCAA pool I am part of:
"Jim W. continues his dominance to this point and has pulled 45 points in front of 2nd-place Chris Timberlake. Jim gets $10 for winning yet another round. Jim also has a 50% chance of winning the pool, which really isn't high enough actually considering how dominant he's been. His right half of the bracket was nearly flawless, and his was 1 of only 2 brackets with Michigan State in the Final 4 (props to Jonathan Hawkins for being the other). However, Jim's pick of Louisville to win it all has put him in the position of still possibly not even making the top 5. Jim still needs Louisville to beat Illinois in order to win the pool, unless Illinois were to end up losing to Michigan State in the final. (see the what-ifs discussion below)."
Can you see why I am excited?
I just posted this as a comment in the blog for the pool:
You know, maybe people are wondering.
I didn't pick Illinois on principle, for one reason that I have contended all along (ask Sammy):
Illinois chokes.
And if that fundamental truth is why I lose?
I'm okay with that.
So really, I am the biggest State fan on the planet right now, eh?
An all Big Ten final would be really, really weird.
