March Madness

Well I'm 12 of 17 so far, and am only missing one Sweet 16 team I picked. Not great, not horrible. VCU losing by 1 was the biggest disappointment. UCLA isn't much good this year, but VCU fell behind and never seemed to get the energy to catch up. I missed both 8 v 9 games, but they're always a crap shoot. Glad I picked Maryland, not so happy with Clemson.

In the close-friends-or-relatives from each side category
My favorite professor's Texas beat two friends' Minnesota.
My grad school roommate's Western Kentucky beat my niece's and her husband's Illinois.

In the close-friends-and-relatives from only one side category, their teams pretty much cleaned up. Winning were -
Purdue
Washington
Maryland
Villanova
Memphis (I think they went there)
Michigan
Oklahoma

ETA - I forgot to add one loser in the second category -
Akron
