so far i already see a few upsets. I like Texas A&M as a 9 to beat BYU and then stun connecticut. I also like #10 maryland to beat #7 Cal. Heres one that could happen #14 North Dakota state over the defending champ #3 Kansas Jayhawks. Also #13 mississipi st over #4 washington could happen.

i like syracuse knocking off oklahoma and texas over duke!
stlbaseball15
mizzou will beat memphis
aceecards
Sleeper time...

OK

VCU is my sleeper team Mr Cinderella if you will! UCLA is a tough draw!

I also Like(d) Northern Iowa but they drew the Boilermakers! The Big Ten may be eliminated by the sweet sixteen!

As far as dancing to the final four..

Watch those three seeds!

Farthest run by a 6 seed.. ASU!
Farthest run by a 7th seed or lower .. Texas/BC

Right now I have a final four that has a 1,2,3 and 4 seed!

Wake Forest is the 4 seed!

Upsets..

I see a mine field named BC in Michigan States way in round of 32
I see big trouble for Marquette in round 64!

Biggest Upset in round of 64...



Are ya setting down...





Are you.. laugh.gif




It will be a 13 knocking off a 4!

Akron over Gonzaga!


If everything goes has planned
UNC/OKlahoma will be a great matchup!

But UCONN vs Memphis will be awesome !
snkpoct137
where to begin? i like Purdue to the elite 8. VCU should beat UCLA. Wake to the final 4? your joking. Its also gonna be tough for BC to knock off the spartans since they will be gone after round 1 thanks to USC. I really like that #14 North Dakota State team over a #3 Kansas. That is my bold prediction for round 1. There is NO WAY Gonzaga loses round 1. They are way to hot right now. I also like #10 michigan to beat #7 clemson (for sentimental reasons). I got Louisville, Missouri, Duke and UNC in the final 4.

Kansas is a lot better than you think..

If you knock them out in round 1 you will miss out on all those points to the elite eight sad.gif

Big ten Basketball cannot hold a candle to the Power conferences.. There isnt a Big ten team who would finish higher than fifth in the big east or ACC!

Duke will not get past Texas and if they do they are gone to NOVA!

I am not quite sure what to make of the Pac 10.. but like the big ten they are a second tier conference to the East, Acc and Big 12.

i agree with you on the Big Ten being a horrible conference thats why i got MSU losing to West Virginia in the sweet 16. Also Purdue is a VERY good team, they will beat Connecticut and go to the elite 8. Other then that i dont see a Big ten team getting past the 2nd round. Kansas is not a good team, they are going to overlook NDSU and Ben Woodside will get his team on the map. I am not sure what to make of Duke, every year i always see them going out early but they have a very very weak bracket this year and i could see them making it to the final 4. I would prefer if Nova got there. Also i could also see 2 potential 8/9 wins over 1 seeds. I think A&M could knock out Connecticut and OK St could knock out Pittsburgh. We shall see though,

Mississippi State is done. Of course, they really didn't have a chance to begin with, lol.

As God is my witness, the Jayhawks are of an acursed abode. May Bane Aldrich be ever afflicted with inescapable doom.

and they kept settling for the 3 and lets face it, they stunk at 3's. I still dont understand why they didnt attack Hasheem Thabeet when he was on the perimeter. That would of been easy points or atleast more fouls on hasheem. That game singlehandedly cost me alot of green sad.gif
