Tourney Picks: Me vs The Rice Squares Box


Anyone can pick games in the NCAA Tournament, no? In a decision that carries considerable risk, I have decided to pick the tourney games against a box of cereal. Oh yes, you read that correctly...a box of cereal. Rice Squares, straight from aisle 3 at Aldi; it doesn't get any cheaper than that.

It's easy to enter big internet contests and get humiliated, but if I lose to the Rice Squares that is every single morning for the rest of the year that I will have to wake up to that box of cereal every morning knowing that it embarrassed me in the tourney pick 'em. So, here we go. It's the man v the bran, horn v corn, dude v breakfast food. Showdown!

Here's the field:


After the first round:

  • All four #1's & 2's survive
  • CS Fullerton & Cornell advance as 14's
  • Arizona was the only 10 to lose
  • And the classic 12/5 upset: Temple over Michigan St.


Print the t-shirts, they're onto the Sweet Sixteen:
  • Except for Memphis, all the #1's bite the dust.
  • South Alabama stuns Tennessee!
  • 13th-seeded Siena is fit for the Cinderella slipper.



Elite Eight:
  • Siena charges on.
  • Memphis survives.
  • South Alabama is still alive.



The Final Four:
  • East: South Alabama
  • Midwest: K-State ends Siena's bid
  • South: Memphis charges on
  • West: Drake knocks off Duke
