We all know the pain of having your bracket busted in the first round. One such misguided soul is the entry labeled TomRocheTwo, the owner of which remains anonymous. This we do know, his entry (we’re assuming it’s a “he”) was the lone pick that chose Cal State Fullerton to beat Purdue. Foolish. But then again the Brandy Award does reward such entries with a free pick for the following season.
Entries that picked Arizona and Wichita State are suffering similar fates and despair, but at least they have some company in that many others had similar aspirations. But to pick CSUF, well, we just don’t know how to explain it.
Meanwhile, speaking of Wichita State, only five entries picked the Thundering Herd to prevail over the Shockers. That’s effectively upset number three, but far less destructive to our overall brackets than Arizona’s loss – not to mention, more appealing uniforms. The Shockers’ loss did shake things up a bit, however, knocking yesterday’s leaders out of the top spots, replaced with a twelve-way tie for first among entries with three incorrect picks out of the 20 games completed so far.
