  • Ok. After watching the March Madness pod made last year, I was inspired to believe I have a chance of winning! I'll just use by sublime psychic powers (aka picking names out of a hat).

    North Carolina
    Kansas
    UCLA

    ......with UNC beating UCLA 81-71 for the title.

  • My predictions (yes I do follow sports...Jeeze!) are as follows:

    East will be the mighty TAR HEELS - UNC baby!
    MidWest will be GEORGETOWN (Though my hometown team is in here...GO SIENA!)
    South will be TEXAS
    and in the West, I want to say UCONN (because they were my team for a long time) but I gotta go with UCLA; they are bringin' the heat!

    TAR HEELS winning it all!

  • Come on. NC has 3 first round picks in their starting line ups alone. And they are being coached by Roy. No one has their combination of talent, athleticism and depth.

  • Mississippi Valley State's shocking loss to UCLA threw my bracket into disarray, so I'll go with:

    Butler, Davidson, UT-Arlington, and Western Kentucky

    with Butler edging out Western Ky. in a 2OT 89-88 thriller, with a controversial technical foul for "excessive bench celebration" giving the Bulldogs the opportunity to tie the game at the end of regulation.

  • Hard to say deep into the tourney with as much talk about parity as their is this year and the early upsets of Uconn, Drake, and the near upsets against Duke and Tennessee which both just scraped by. I think that Tennessee will be hurt by their performance and they are facing an unbelievable shooting team Butler which had 15 of 30 threes in their win over Southern Alabama. Butler has made it into the sweet 16 twice before and both times lost only to the eventual tourney winner. Aj Graves, Betko, Gordon, everybody can be a perimeter threat on that team. I think that it may be a low scoring defensive nail biter but Butler will win and progress to the sweet sixteen for the third time in school history. Beyond that I just think this is going to be another crazy year with so many upsets and near upsets so quickly. Each first round game with the exception of a few over matched double digit wins have come down to the buzzer and I think that bodes well for the rest of March. The other real 'Cinderella's'(Butler may be small but held a top ten rating for a portion of the year, their 7th seeding was an absolute insult) Davidson, San Diego, and WSU will wreak havoc on this thing, we may see a San Diego of Davidson especially go deep into the tourney.

    I was impressed with ND's showing so I retract my statements about Winthrop being able to beat them in the second round. And I love my boilermakers this year with their second seed I could see them going the distance this year and doing John Wooden proud.Just for Coach lets say Purdue, UCLA in the final four. As for the rest ?????? It's an interesting game. I can't wait to see the Arkansas Indiana game, lets see if Kelvin Sampson's old team has more 'blue chips' than the Hoosiers or if Eric Gordon can shore up the Hoosiers turbulent season with a win.
