Gonna start this a lil early. I am a huge UK fan, but I do love me some underdawgs and mid-majors. Don't think Murray State has enough pull to get an atlarge, but I feel they should, but whoever get Belmont better not sleep on them...those white boys can hoop. Will have to check out some other conference tourneys, to see how other 'small' schools are doing.

One prediction..I'll bet they try and put Wichita State in same bracket as UK...rematch of last year. I would guess WSU would garner at least a 4 seed, so a match up with the Cats would come in Sweet 16, should both teams survive the first w/e.

Tough bracket and I thought they deserved more than a 6 seed but I have a hunch Larry Brown is good for a couple of close wins and a trip to the Sweet 16.
Still trying to understand how the hell Texas made it into the tournament. With all due respect to the gentleman yesterday who lauded their strength of schedule - they have underachieved all year and Barnes is on a serious hot seat down in Austin.

Yeah, watched some of SMU, and it is kinda scary how good they could've been if Mudiay, had better grades, and didn't skip off to Europe. Agree on Texas, and WTF bout UCLA.....damn sounds like the committee was getting desparate. Temple should have made it.

Well - so much for SMU.

You have to go Kentucky.
At least all my sweet 16 teams survived. That is my goal. Let's get the sweet 16 right and half of the elite 8

You are a genius the problem is, to win the bracket, the smart play is bet against kentucky because everybody else is picking them i'm not afraid to be a dumbass, especially in a free pool i dont have a problem admitting when i am a dumbass, which I am by picking Baylor

The Odds are still against you in winning even if you pick Kentucky and they win. Since most other people are. Go big or go home. Take a chance on someone else you like. The odds are against you either way..

you're just a dumbass if you think you know what's going to happen. I don't mind people who watch and try to tell me what 1 or 2 seed is the best. But if you try to tell me you can figure this bracket out, you're a dumbass.

Kentucky was my obvious pick and I have Michigan St. facing them. A very low % is going to have Michigan St. I still think Izzo is the best coach in the college game.
