I suck

Robyn challenged me to a bracket pool on Facebook. Other people have joined as well, but if the ACC Tournament is any indication, then my chances aren't good. I missed the Clemson-FSU game which wasn't a shock. Both were pretty even and I could have seen either winning. However Miami's mostly dominating win I didn't predict either. So I'm 0-2 in the ACC Tournament. In other words expect NC State to beat Duke and Wake Forest to beat Georgia Tech now. It's bound to happen.

A "Put Appalachian in the NCAA Tournament" group has started. On what grounds? The loss to Elon? Sorry guys. It was a good season, but it doesn't look like App's resume is going to compare favorably to enough of the other bubble teams barring a lot of late losses. On a bright note, App is up to 10th team out and after Clemson's loss, they might be the 9th. You can't see the site that I can because I'm an ESPN Insider. But here's some other games you might want to watch that could boost App's chances. Teams in bold are who you should pull for.
