The winner of Tennessee/Iowa is a solid pick vs Umass, Umass might even be dogs

North Dakota St should be good against Oklahoma

I actually like Providence over UNC too

Pitt is a 6 point favorite, not exactly an upset.

I picked my bracket so that UConn would face 5 former Big East teams on the way to the title.

I have UConn beating St Joes, Nova, Providence, Cincy, Cuse and Ville.

I don't think you should take my upsets with a lot of relevance, but here goes:

South Round 1 - Stanford over New Mexico; Round 2 VCU over UCLA; Round 4 - Cuse over Florida
East Round 1 - Providence over UNC, NC Central over Iowa St; Round 2 UConn over Nova, Cincy over MSU, Memphis over Virginia; Round 4 - UConn over Cincy
West Round 1 ND State over Oklahoma; Round 2 - ND State over SDSU, Baylor over Creighton; Round 3 - Baylor over Wiscy
Midwest Round 2 - UMass over Duke, Kentucky over Wichita St; Round 4 - Ville over Mich

Having just typed that - do not look for me for good upsets - my brackets are already a wreck and the tourney hasn't started yet. We'll just call that the Gin Bracket.

Not sure why you think ND State has no shot. They're going to have the best player on the court. They can definitely beat Oklahoma.

Because they haven't beaten anyone, their schedule is horrid, and there will be more than 2 players on the court. Oklahoma went 12-6 in the B-12.

Yet Oklahoma is only a 4 point favorite.....

Why do you like Baylor so much? Do you know who their coach is?

New Mexico and Baylor to the Elite 8.
SFA to the Sweet 16.
North Dakota State and whoever plays St. Louis as 12's over 5's.

That's about it.

I'm feeling very chalky this year. Almost pulled the trigger on UK over Wichita State. I think that game will be the closest we get to a 1-seed falling in the first weekend.

The good thing for New Mexico and Pitt is that when they have their annual loss prior to the Sweet 16, at least it'll probably be to a high seed.

A nobile exit.

You couldn't pay me enough to trust either program to make a run. When will people learn.

I have the same. UNC is so inconsistent, they could get to the final four or lose to PC.

I think Pitt beats Colorado, but I agree with you completely on New Mexico, I have no clue what people are seeing.

Still can't get over how Wichita State goes undefeated and their reward is the preseason No. 1 team in the second round and the hottest team in America in the Sweet 16. Brutal.
