So with Random Noise and BC Torroo out of the running it looks like a wide open field this year.

No major upsets so far but Hoarlstars (DII) drew Thoroughbreds (Naismith) in round one and got knocked out.

A few low and mid tier DII teams have dropped some games too.

Who do people think will take it?

I think that Secret Agents are probally the favorite, but there are lots of variables for The Mogul, including the draw and of course the B3.

Otherwise I think there are lots of teams that depending on their focus could be in the mix. The Cup is so random as so much depends on the other competitive games that week and home court.

I am hopeful to have a long Cup run after last seasons pounding by the above mentioned Agents. But you just never know what will happen...

The Secret Agents look like they're a cut above everyone else right now so I'd go with them. Dunno.

Tough draw this week. Too bad you were not able to play your best as it would have been a great match up in my opinion.

My team lucky landed a nice draw tonight facing a fellow Div.III and I feel I should be able to take home the win tonight, Has for the winner of the Cup I also feel the Secret Agents are the team to beat this year and it will be their Cup to lose.

yeah, could be a good game, well its not a big deal. Cup doesnt bring that much income anyway and I wouldnt go much farther. Just trying to stay in league II and that's priority.

I think a Naismith team that is willing to take a couple losses in league play will win the cup, since I don't think there is a team as dominant as BC Tooroo yet. I'd think Secret Agents will try to repeat the Naismith championship, and we'll see someone like HPP (who I think has mentioned he will focus on the cup this year iirc) take the cup. But then again, as Beanerz pointed out, it all depends on the draw.

Wow, I won in a squeaker (87-85) against a DIII team who sent out the A team and who I think train game shape. Here's hoping for a lucky draw next week.

Yikes! That looked to close for comfort. Congrats on pulling out the "W", and good luck with the draw. Well kind of good at least, I want all the good luck :)
