How is Nova not even an option?

Best sporting event of the year.

1. There's a limit to poll options.

2. I went with the projected #1 and #2 seeds + Providence for the heck of it.

3. Nova would fall under the "someone else" option.

I'm just glad my alma mater Texas A&M Corpus Christi got in for the 2nd time in our school's history!

Would love to see Wisco make some noise, but they will probably flounder in the first round and get bounced. I still think Gard is a terrible coach.

No team has busted my bracket more often than Wisconsin. I consistently overrate them.

Wisco has helped me a few years in tourney going further than expected (thinking Kaminsky days)

Spartans too

With that said, I don't think either reach Elite 8 and possibly even slip up in second round


I can't stand bill self and I hate to say this, but Kansas has inside outside game and a few veterans to make noise

Have auburn at 100-1 but Green plays too dumb at times and forgets to pass and out of control turnovers

Provi, USC two teams I see losing round 2

Illini will need Plummer or Frazier to pop 3s and curbelo not to be out of control. Kofi getting 17-10 is a given


Kentucky Kansas my picks with UCLA being a team I like as non tip 3 seed

Hate to say it but the West bracket looks like the toughest one of the 4.

Wisconsin and Providence are two of the biggest pretenders this year. Just so happens, they are also ranked as the top two luckiest teams in the country

Don’t be surprised when teams wearing Orange go further than expected.

I hope everyone gets to feel what this kid is feeling at least once this tournament. Good luck with your picks.

Going to Vegas tomorrow until Saturday. Can't wait to watch South Dakota State win.
Also, Montana St +14.5 should win.
moneyine bets on some 14 / 15 seeds.. Colgate, Yale, and CS Fullterton just for fun.

I've SDS in the Sweet 16. Shooting the 3 won't take you all the way to the title, but it's great for an upset or two!

No big upsets yet. Although I like seeing NMSU beat UConn. NMSU cost my team (ACU) a chance to dance, but I someway found myself rooting for them today.

And man, this Kentucky game is close. Would love to see this upset happen. But you can't tell me the big dogs don't get the benefit of fouls. KU has shot like 35 free throws compared to 10-12 for St. Peters.
