Greg Doyel- Loss to Murray State
My only solace here is that Doyel is picking us to us to lose early. That guy has had some atrocious brackets in the past. Pays to be a contrarian of that guy!
The only bracket that matters is Obama's.
Myron Medcalf at ESPN has Marquette losing in the Round of 64 to Iona.

Myron Medcalf is an idiot. That article is a poorly researched joke.

Still could happen. I'll be worried about every game we play.

I agree, but we could hypothetically lose to anyone in the field. He put forth a poorly reasoned and factually inaccurate argument as to why Iona will beat us. If you're trying to pick brackets with some basis in reality, he's not the writer anyone should be listening to.
I think I'd go with Obama's over myron medcalf's.
Hell, I'd take diamond joe biden's over Myron's.

Looks like he's got us playing Wisconsin, I think we can take them down again.
Justin Verlander is a Douchebag
I want to see Digger's bracket
I think Conan has us twice. Once by Wisconsin and once by Vanderbilt.

We've all joked about Predator being Jae's doppelgänger, looks like we might have to call in a favor.
Boy... it's really going to suck for the team that gets to play "Jae"

If there's one thing that can break a zone defense, it's shoulder rockets.

He picked an all Notre Dame Final Four.
I thought everyone on this site was an expert!
Man .. I watched the ESPN Experts 3 hour bracket analysis show ..
The first stage, all 5-6 guys voted on who would win each game, then the consensus pick moved on. The consensus was for MU to make the S16. Then no one picked MU to beat Mizzu.
But they also asked each panelist for their S16 to NC picks. 2 of them picked MU, the other 4 picked Murray State to beat us.
That surprised/pissed me off.
Murrary State has feasted on 100, 200, 300 RPI cupcakes and has FOUR top 100 wins. MU has 14.
Murray State got 30 wins via their 249th hardest schedule.. MU got 25 wins on SOS 26!
