Rules:

4) Once you pick a team, you can't pick them again.
5) You must post your pick before your selection kicks off.

7) The pick must be in the thread for that week.
8) Use a hottie picture to make your pick. (optional)
9) Any disputes will be solved by a vote of the posters still alive.

Arizona State might have the most surprisingly anemic history in men's basketball of any program that you might think is better than it is.

Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

This pic (not your pick) was posted after the game was played, so does it count in the tiebreaker? ;)

Don't mind me, I'm just still salty from the year I picked all 13 weeks properly, nailed all 6 conference championship games, and lost on a BS total points in all championship games tiebreaker to Irish27.

I'll be in the hospital from tomorrow through most likely the end of the month, so I'll take Wake Forest this week please.

Thanks. I'm having my entire colon removed, so not exactly fun times. Ha ha. But I'll be fine.

This is the farthest I've lasted playing this so I wasn't about to lose out now.

Thoughts and prayers for you this week and for your recovery, I had a Whipple this summer so we will probably be scar twins! I'll pray for your surgeon too that he or she does a great job and that you recover quickly and they give you a morphine button. Best wishes azcg
