Sorry if I skip to the end of the book, but having watched many ACC games, Big Ten and Big East, I didn't see any dominance except with Kentucky.... Hoping for some great clean games with a couple of great goals sealing the deal. So here's my guess: Kentucky Stanford Louisville Indiana Stanford Indiana Stanford
UNH Akron UC Irvine SMU High Point Charlotte West Virginia UIC Portland Washington NC State Pacific UNCW Air Force UConn Wake Akron Stanford St. Marys UNC Charlotte West Virginia Louisville Kentucky UCF Maryland Duke Notre Dame UVA Denver Indiana Wake St Marys (have to have them here so Wake has a chance to advance) Charlotte Louisville UCF Duke UVA Indiana Wake Louisville UCF UVA Wake UVA (Rematch of the best college soccer game I watched all season) Wake
NH Akron Grand Canyon SMU High Point Charlotte WVU MSU UCLA Washington NC State Pacific Michigan UNCW Air Force UConn Wake Akron Stanford St Mary’s UNC Charlotte WVU Louisville Kentucky Wash Maryland Duke Mich UVA Denver IU Wake Stanford UNC Louisville Washington Duke Michigan Indiana Stanford UNC Duke Indiana UNC Indiana Indiana
I have watched about five minutes of college soccer this year - so I'll probably win New Hampshire Akron Grand Canyon Oregon State High Point Charlotte West Virginia Michigan State UCLA Washington NC State Pacific Michigan UNC Wilmington Air Force UConn Wake Forest Akron Stanford St. Mary's North Carolina Charlotte Georgetown Louisville Kentucky Washington Maryland Duke Notre Dame Virginia Denver Indiana Wake Forest Stanford North Carolina Louisville Kentucky Duke Virginia Indiana Wake Forest Louisville Kentucky Indiana Wake Forest Indiana Indiana
Uh. Just noticed something. Change that last part to: Wake Forest Louisville Kentucky Indiana Wake Forest Indiana Indiana *** *** ***
At last, my picks have come along, it's my kids who have a snow day, and their life (not mine) is like a song ... New Hampshire Akron UC Irvine SMU James Madison Charlotte West Virginia Michigan St. UCLA Washington NC State Pacific Michigan UNCW Air Force Rhode Island ---------- Wake Forest Syracuse Stanford Saint Mary’s North Carolina Charlotte Georgetown Louisville Kentucky UCF Maryland Duke Notre Dame Virginia Denver Indiana ---------- Wake Forest St Mary's North Carolina Louisville Kentucky Maryland Notre Dame Indiana ---------- Wake Forest North Carolina Maryland Indiana ---------- North Carolina Indiana ---------- North Carolina Had to pick a few visitors in the first round, and at least one in the second round, otherwise where's the fun? If North Carolina wins it all, I like my chances. The upset picks that I didn't dare make: New Hampshire to shock Wake Forest, and UConn to shock Indiana. [Yes, I know I picked Rhode Island over UConn.]
D'oh! I was going to comment that if @Phatom of the Soccer wins he might start a cut-to-the-chase trend, obviating the need to pick all those early-round games.
If not too late: New Hampshire Akron UC Irvine SMU High Point Charlotte West Virginia Michigan St. Portland Washington NC State UC Riverside Michigan UNCW Air Force UConn Wake Forest Syracuse Stanford Saint Mary’s North Carolina Charlotte Georgetown Louisville Kentucky UCF Maryland Duke Notre Dame Virginia Denver Indiana Wake Forest Saint Mary’s North Carolina Louisville Kentucky Maryland Virginia Indiana Wake Forest Louisville Maryland Indiana Wake Forest Indiana Indiana

First round results are in. Most of us did well, and only one true hit was taken via Washington. Will the weekend bring a bloodletting, or have we actually learned how to do this? I did include soccersubjectively despite turning in a late submission. The UConn and New Hampshire games were voided as they had already begun in earnest before the picks were submitted. The other ones that were late by a minute or two I let through.

I should get my money back on the Syracuse pick. They didn't even get to take advantage of home field. Lets go Akron !
Your results after round 2. No one got hurt too bad by the Louisville/UNC quarter unless you had them reaching the final.
