NIT Prediction Thread: 2nd Round - 3/20-3/23

You don't need me to tell you what to do (as is evident by my horrid .635 win percentage thus far).  The important thing is that Vandy is still alive.  We take on the South Dakota State Jackwagons on Friday, and, as always, if you don't pick us, you're dead to me.

You know the rules by now.  Or you don't.  Whatever.

1) Read which teams are playing, who they are playing, and guess which one wins each game.

2) Post your picks in the comments (I'll go first to show you how it's done).

3) Tell your best friend he's an idiot for thinking Iona could win a damned game (or some such nonsense).

4) Fight to the death.

5) *NEW RULE. Your past picks have no bearing on who you may choose in this round, or in any future round.  Just pick a winner for each game.

*#4 is optional.

Here are the games:

#8 South Dakota State v. #5 Vanderbilt - 3/20 9:30pm ESPNU

#6 Alabama v. #2 Miami - 3/21 11am ESPN

#5 George Washington v. #1 Temple - 3/22 11am ESPN

#5 Arizona State v. #1 Richmond - 3/22 7:30pm ESPNU

#3 Rhode Island v. #2 Stanford - 3/22 9:30pm ESPNU

#4 Illinois State v. #1 Old Dominion - 3/23 8pm ESPNU

#3 Murray State v. #2 Tulsa - 3/23 9pm ESPN

*All times EST

Get your picks in before our game tips off on Friday, or forfeit your right to make that pick.
