Pittsburgh sucks and Allie takes the lead on Day 3!

Pittsburgh sucks. I mean, really, really sucks. I have never liked them. Nobody does. But you always pick them because somehow they always get a number one seed. Which is stupid. Because they suck. If you didn't hear, the number one seed, Pittsburgh, lost to Butler in the second round.

Robert was the only one who picked Pittsburgh to win it all. He is the first member of the bracket challenge to have its Championship selection to fall. When I asked him how he felt about it, he sadly declared, "Devastated. As usual."

So in honor of this... this is for you, bro.


So, in other news... The first eight teams of the Sweet Sixteen have punched their ticket... and Allison has taken the lead on Day 3 of the 2011 Young Family Bracket Challenge by correctly selecting 6 of the 8 games on Saturday. Also selecting 6 of the 8 games correctly were Jeremy and Nathaniel who are in second and third place, respectively.

Jeremy is only .5 points away from Allison, and Nathaniel made a big jump from ninth to third... a lot of bracket challenge drama to come!

1.	Allison	55.5 points
2.	Jeremy	55 points
3.	Nathaniel	52 points
4.	Eric	50.5 points
5.	Mom (Jo)	49.5 points
6.	Robert	49 points
7.	Heather	47 points
8.	Beth	43.5 points
9.	Melissa	41.5 points
10	Jacob	41 points
11.	Bradley	38.5 points
12.	Teresa	35 points
13.	Lindsey	24 points

So after her fast start, Mom (Jo) has fallen a little bit. But with Pitt out of the Southwest bracket, there is a good path for BYU to make it out of that bracket and she has BYU winning it all.

Great.

The remaining Sweet 16 will be finalized tomorrow. Let's go Heels!
