This is mine

Virginia Tech has an easy 2nd round game.

Well, it's a ballsy bracket. I'd have to be in a pretty big pool to throw something like UVA vs. Pittsburgh up there.

Virginia Tech has an easy 2nd round game.

If you ask him, their first round and 2nd round opponents are the same.

Pittsburgh and Virginia? You're really going out on a limb.

I don't even think Dave Leiteo has this bracket.

I like Virginia. Watched them alot this year. Their backcourt has the potential to take over any game. I am a big Jason Cain fan as well, a mid major type player whos made it in the BCS.

 

Before I saw the bracket, I was saying a Louisville/Virginia championship game. Unluckily for me, they got shoved in the same bracket. Oh well.

 

I am too superstitious to pick the 4/13 game in the west bracket.

anyway, can't really hate on a bracket till afterwards..

can't tell if thats a joke or not

I can honestly say Jackson State, Weber State, and TAMU-CC are the only teams from the NCAA AND NIT fields that I havent seen play this year.

 

How sad is that?

 

I also think Niagara is better than the play-in game. Espicially when you figure, had Marist won that conference tourney, they would of been around a 13 seed. I actually thought Niagara was around a 14 seed themselves.

thanks to Tourney week, Belmont is the only team I haven't seen this year

Illinois put up 71 on Belmont. That doesn't say good things about their D.

Here's my first draft

Belmont/East Tennessee St. Game is still available on ESPN 360(free). "Boog" Sciambi & "Bucky" Waters are the commentators. First half is 44:18, 2nd half 57:48 in length.

Belmont lost twice to my alma mater. They have one big man and a deadly outside shooter.

I'll check it out... thanks Rex

Any way you slice it, its a crap shoot. Completed brackets are a shot in the dark.

I have a feeling you had Louisville over OSU simply for law of averages against #1s progression.

 

Anyway, I like your bracket a lot Dodgy

Make sure you pick a USC/Texas winner, Sexy.

They actually have two guys that can light it up from downtown. Ryan Hare and Andy Wicke are going to give Georgetown headaches with the zone D they play.

I'm having a hard as hell time choosing between UNC and Georgetown. I think UNC is one of the 2 or 3 most talented teams, but for whatever reason, my gut feeling tells me this is not a championship team. I just see them laying an egg at some point, but I don't know if that will be against Georgetown. It's probably not worth worrying about since that matchup will probably never happen. Whatever...I think I'm just gonna put Georgetown in.

 

Right now I'm rolling with Kansas, Maryland, Georgetown, and Texas A&M.

I've got Florida, Kansas, Georgetown, and Texas A & M, with Georgetown taking home the title. Unfortunately too many analysts are picking these teams so I might switch out UF with Maryland and/or Texas A & M with Tennessee (that potential second round game with Louisville scares me).

TSwift...Marquette's leading scorer was announced out for the tourney today. You still like them to beat UNC?

Make sure you pick a USC/Texas winner, Sexy.

 

Oops.

 

Texas.

I'd be happy to post mine, but someone will have to tell me how to do it.

i didnt go through all the work of posting the entire bracket but I have

 

Maryland, UCLA, Ohio St, and Texas. Maryland, Ohio St finale with the buckeyes with the title
