This is probably the worst overall start for all the contestants as a whole, as well as for publius individually, in the history of this forum's contests. If there was ever a night for HCD (home court disadvantage), it was tonight.
Northwestern over Illinois, 3-1
Iowa State over Missouri, 3-1
Baylor over Texas A&M, 3-1

3-2 Colorado win. I'd say 0-4 was pretty damned close.

3-2 Colorado win. I'd say 0-4 was pretty damned close. It was pretty damned close for 23 of the 40 who picked the contest. Colorado was outscored and the three games it won were by the scores of 37-35, 33-31 and 15-12. Hey, (R)uffda, that was just the opening salvo of Big 12 and Big 10 matches. Starting tonight you have the WCC and Pepperdine to look forward to.  |

I see a sub .500 week in my future.
And I picked LMU over Santa Clara. What was I thinking?
KSU? What were _you_ thinking? (Although they'll probably end up winning...)

The more I feel I know about the teams... the worse I do. Now anyone want to argue as to whether those 3 weeks were a fluke. (And it would have been worse if even more games from last night were in the contest, I actually lucked out.)

The more I know, the worse I do..... oh, and yes, that you got WAY lucky early on. |

And, no, I have no reason to gloat. Maybe the winner of this week's contest will be the only contestant over .500  |

Loyola Marymount vs. San Diego going to game 5. If LMU wins the match I believe no contestants will be over .500 for the first 6 matches this week. Must be a full moon or something happening out there... |

LMU was up 6-3; lead 8-7 at the side change; got outscored 8-2 after that to lose the match 15-10 in the 5th.
