I take one obvious and sprinkle them in with contrarian picks. 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. yep, i also have michigan state in the final 4 i do that almost every year Kentucky and Arizona (they have the path of least resistance). I still think Buffalo gives Kentucky a little scare. Michigan St. and Gonzaga. (Gonzaga has the most up for grabs section of the 4).

That was an awesome day 1 of the tourney! Yeah, it was. I was hoping Wofford would beat Arky. They couldnt have asked for more of a wide open shot I would have fucking drained it.

The problem is. If you don't pick Kentucky than you are a dumbass if they win. If they don't. 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 smart play is to pick the team that is going to win.

Maybe that's why you never win your brackets. I hear what you're saying in going against the grain. But if Kentucky wins, which they should, what good does being unconventional do for you?

Well - so much for SMU. AND - nice showing Texas. Will they even let Barnes back on the campus? But Texas has this guy. One of the most impressive people I've read about lately.

Picking Kentucky to win is playing the odds... I read Ky vs field is 50/50 I picked Wisc because a) everyone else picked ky and b) Frank Kaminsky is a fucking beast

And I have seen that replay a few times. I don't think that ball hits the rim. I think it's a brutal call.
