tbh, I thought about BYU losing in the 1st round but I think Fredette alone will carry them to 1 maybe 2 wins
1. BYU loses in the first round (not a hugely bold prediction with the loss of the fornicator, but still a #3 losing)
2. Florida State will make the Elite 8 and will be the last double digit seed to fall
3. Louisville will make the Championship game

Absolutely possible. Just a bold prediction.
It's a shame we didn't get to see Purdue with Robbie Hummel this year, I don't see a team as talented as they are w/ Hummel.
Not with Barnes as coach. This guy has had good talent for a while now, and consistently fails to be better than mediocre
I think they'd be the favorite with Duke and a healthy Kyrie Irving. Shame both those players got injured.
What is everyone picking so far (I'm lost). Right now my tentative final four is Duke, Kentucky, Florida and Kansas which is sure to change about 20 times before Thursday.
USC goes deep.
Texas vs. St. John's in the championship.
OSU loses in the opening round.
DoK, the SEC was really down this year. Two SEC teams in the Final 4 seems really iffy. Duke is the surest of your picks, followed by Kansas.
Right now I have Ohio State (over Syracuse), San Diego State (over Duke), Kansas (but I'm thinking Purdue or Notre Dame could become my choice by Thursday) and Pittsburgh (easiest path).
Well Kentucky is a bit of a stretch, the way they seem to have gelled in the SEC tournament caught my eye, but now that I think about it I don't want to be relying on a Calipari team to exceed expectations.
I know you have UCLA over Florida in the 2nd round, you know that game's in Tampa right?
Losing to Oakland in a blowout will be a lot of damage.
Yeah. It's a gut feeling. Although, it depends on if Lee is healthy. I've got a connection I'll talk to tomorrow who knows the truth (not what's reported) and I'll make my mind up then. UCLA has too much size, and Florida struggled with size vs. Kentucky (35 points on +50% FG, 21 rebounds, 5 blocks) and UCLA has better size and depth up front than Kentucky. Florida has struggled with size all season, getting killed by Ohio State and Kentucky in the le game, and struggling to beat lesser teams with size like Morehead State.
Florida has nobody who can contain Smith, and Nelson and Honeycut are the versatile forwards that seem to routinely tear Florida apart.
1. Old Dominion makes it to the sweet 16
2. Dogus Balbay averages more than 6 ppg (minimum of 2 games played by Texas)
3. BYU loses in the first round.
Purdue loses a key piece to the team with the suspension of Barlow. Big loss. Great defender. Helps me make my mind up about how far Purdue makes it.
Not if Kyrie Irving is really coming back.
LOL me not reading the rest of the thread; I see you accounted for Irving later.
how about all the pac10 teams make the sweet 16. or maybe the elite 8? ok maybe just the sweet 16.
This, if I do say so myself, was a of a call, considering it was dependent upon a 12/13 upsetting 5/4 in the same bracket.
I have Morehead State advancing vs. Richmond, for what it's worth.
