I made up a bracket. I'm an IU fan, but chose Purdue to win the tourney. Not a REAL fan! Disappointed in ya I did 4 years there.. Paid them a small fortune.. Maybe they educated me enough to be able to perform a critical assessment of our team, lol! I'd love to be wrong though.

I'd love to be wrong though. I went to UC and they made it easy on me. Not good enough to make the tourney. My wife college made it again. #3 seed Xavier. Those two schools are two miles apart. Parts of the schools only a little over a mile apart.

Yes, The two Univeristy park in the same area in the valley between the opposite ridges they are on. It's been a battle for decades. When I went to UC their sports was a joke and Xavier just competitive. So no real battle. Who was the worst was the talk.

When I lived in Fort Wayne it was during the Bobby IU golden years. So I have a mix between IU, UC, and Xavier. I ripped all four ligaments at Purdue playing a soccer scrimmage practice. That was when I had my little stint with the Fort Wayne Flames. That was my end of the little stint. So I'm not a Purdue fan.

I attended BSU and not sure they have made the ncaa in the past 30 yrs. Maybe 1993 or 94 they made it to sweet 16. But dang can the produce fisheries biologists.

What we’re the Fort Wayne Flames lived all my life I don’t remember that team. Indoor soccer team MISL. 85-86 and not sure how long it lasted. Formed in 85 and 1st team in 86. I just hurt my ankle per practice for 86 team. At the same time the company President Mitch that I worked for had a heart attack and asked us to move on. That is when I moved back to get a job.

No big money those days. I move to Cincy in late 1988 if I remember right.

Interesting…….

I don’t remember them playing at the Coliseum I thought they played outdoors at maybe Saint Francs I played in 1985 and early 1986. I was on the team, but that is when I ripped my ligaments and that ended my playing with them for the most part. I did practice with them in the spring, but my ankle stopped me from continuing. I decided to go to work as a BSEE fulltime at System Engineering Company. I was working on the Tupperware project in Hemingway, SC. That travel and playing was a big conflict. I spent most of 1986 practicing with them after my ankle healed. Twenty years later I had surgery on the ankle. Three screws and a scare from big toe to ankle and across the ankle. Good news now that ankle foot is better than my right. I stopped playing at age 48. I decided I had enough with injures.

First upset. Furman takes out Virginia. Of course I made that pick in two of my three brackets just not this one.
