First Night: I got off to a good start. I was 9-2 when Purdue blew the big lead vs. Little Rock and gave me not only that loss but three future losses since I had the Boilermakers in the Final Four. I was still 11-3 when the final two games went against me: Arizona, who I had going to a regional final, (thus costing me two more future games and then Seton Hall got blown out by a Gonzaga team everybody was predicting they'd beat. I had the Pirates in the Sweet 16 so that was another future loss. So I wound up 11-6 but with 6 future losses so I was really 11-11. (Thank you Arkansas-Little Rock, Wichita State and Gonzaga.)

There were 7 upsets, (the historical average for the entire first round is 8): Two 5's went done, two 6's went down and the 9's got their revenge on the 8's who had been 7-1 the last two years. The 9's won all three games. I'd predicted four upsets on the night and three of them came through: Yale, Connecticut and Providence, who pulled their game out of the fire vs. USC in the final second,.

Right now I'm flying with one engine but still in the air.
