You could be 15 for 16 and......

[will2survive]

dosen't mean anything unless your final 16 is intact---if your fianl 16 has a loss--you need a longshot

[S.K.M.]

Depends on how your bracket is scored. Ive seen a lot of different ways that would effect how important the first round is.....

Mine will depend on my final four because I can almost guarantee not many have the same exact four I got in there, got some sleepers

Like I said, dosent matter if you have 15,14,13,12,11,10--------at this point--you need to keep your final 16 intact.

example you have 15 out of 16 and you have Georgetown advancing a few rounds---result:you're screwed

If you're going to lose a game--let it be 8/9 matchup in the first round and only the first round
