Greg Oden updates on March Madness

From Greg Oden on Playmaker Mobile:

- Dewey (@D3WEY & @PlaymakerMobile)

So i got 9 of the 16 teams still left. Thats pretty good but not great, but the only thing that still matters is that OSU is still in it and they are lookin good. Turner is doing his thing and Diebler is stroken it. Lighty is doin his thing. I think this team has it goin on and it doesnt hurt either that Kansas fell off. Man that was a crazy upset. overall just a good wk of college ball. Go Bucks!!

Greg Oden's March Madness bracket

Straight from the man himself. Big surprise he has Ohio State winning it all. My apologies if his bracket is too small to read. It looks fine in the post preview but ya never know what happens when ya hit publish. It might be really small, too small, sort of like Ohio State's chances of winning it all.

Greg Oden predicts March Madness: "OSU is gonna go all the way"

Ohio State is gonna get more than good enough of a seed to win it all, but frankly seeding doesn't matter because you gotta win six games regardless. Can Ohio State do it? Not if my Villanova Wildcats have anything to do with it. But Greg Oden disagrees.

Its that time of yr again...March Madness. This is the time of yr that just makes me miss college ya know?! I know everyones gonna think im a homer for sayin this but I really do think OSU is gonna go all the way. They got the best player in the country in evan Turner. Imma big fan of his. They got all the pieces to make that run. You just gotta get hot at the right time. Well see how they do with the big 10 Tourny leading into the tournament. I think they gotta be a 2 seed at least. Go Bucks!

Enter the Villagnome (36 Chambers of Jay Wright)

Villanova pranksters prank Syracuse suckers (aka Andy's hair loves Jay Wright)

Syracuse Orange fans like senior guard Andy Rautins for his 12 points/5 assists, but he's loved for his hair. So it's no surprise to see the Internet give birth to @AndyRautinsHair on Twitter. SB Nation says there's a new "funnyman on Twitter" and to "do yourself a favor and jump on board now before this guy hits it big."

Well this 'funnyman' turned out to be a Villanova pranked pulled by @Villagnome.

 

Let's start at the beginning, shall we?

SB Nation showed love to Andy's hair's Twitter account: "I can't believe I am letting this trump a thorough breakdown of Saturday's heavyweight match-up between the Orange and Villanova Wildcats, but there's a new funnyman on twitter, with the intent of giving a true voice to Andy Rautins' hair.  Appropriately titled, followers are coming in bunches to get the scoop on just what makes Hair Canada's do so effing cool. Do yourself a favor and jump on board now before this guy hits it big."

Andy's hair can also be found at andyrautinshair.com (complete with a "Countdown to the Carnage," carnage being the Syracuse/Villanova game Saturday night 9pm ET).

And Syracuse fans are all about it: SEE WHAT I MEAN

 

But here's the thing, @KellyLux: It's not only Syracuse who could come up with this.

Enter, The Villagnome.

 

The Villagnome is responsible for both Andy's website and also @AndyRautinsHair, which now features a steady stream of pro-Villanova blah blah blah you get the point; you've been duped, 'Cuse. The Twitter account, the website, it was never a Syracuse affair. It's just a good old-fashioned sports prank (my favorite of all-time being the Harvard/Yale football game of 2004).

Below is Andy's hair's website right now, roughly seven hours before tipoff.

 

With roughly 200 followers now it'll be interesting to see how many 'Cuse fans fall of the Andy's Hair wagon before tipoff of tonight's game, the winner of which owns the driver's seat for winning the regular season Big East conference championship.
