Another NCAA Tournament Contest (3 SBD to winner)
Even with all of the upsets this past weekend, only 1 of our teams advanced. Syracuse was the only cinderella pick that made it out alive and that was my team. I am going to give @goldkey .5 SBD for having the second place team (Butler) and then give all of you another shot at 3 SBD (plus all sbd generated from this post). Newcomers are welcome to compete as well.
This challenge will again be based off of picking the underdogs. I'll have everyone pick 1 lower seed team from the round of 16 and if your team wins, you'll get to choose another lower seed in the elite 8, if the final four has two games with teams with different seeds, we will continue there. The last participant standing will win 3 SBD and if there are multiple survivors at the end, the SBD will be split evenly.
Below are your eight choices for the round of 16:
Kansas St. over Kentucky
Loyola-Chicago over Nevada
Florida St. over Gonzaga
Texas A&M over Michigan
Syracuse Over Duke
Clemson over Kansas
Texas Tech over Purdue
West Virginia over Villanova
Multiple people can choose the same team.
Leave your pick from these 8 teams in the comments below. Good luck and let the madness continue!

Loyola-Chicago over Nevada
Thanks @davidblackwell for the prize for Butler. This is an interesting perspective on the tournament.
I'll pick Texas A&M over Michigan.
My brackets always include BigTen Teams and they have often let me down. This year, the selection committee gave almost no respect to the conference by selecting only four teams. Yet, they all got high seeds, which is perplexing to me.
Michigan won their previous contest on a prayer 3 pointer by a freshman. By all other perspectives, they should have lost that game. Texas A&M whooped North Carolina.
Purdue played Butler without Isaac Haas and they pulled off the win. I think Texas Tech over Purdue is also possible.
My pick for an underdog win is: Texas A&M over Michigan.
I'm going with Texas Tech over the short handed Purdue.
