The game that has me puzzled is USC/Mich St. I'm tempted to put USC in just cause, but Izzo is a tournament time coach and its hard to pick against him, ESPECIALLY this early in the tourney.

I chose USC.. they hot right now




Yea Henz I picked them too, actually have them going to the elite 8, but I'm rethinking that as well. Not sure about that match up with WVU. This !$@# isfrustrating bro

w. kentucky

Same. I'm riding with Zona, but i haven't seen Utah play and Zona is just average this year.

My dilemma with that is MSU always comes to play Tournament time. They can be a 5 seed and make a run at the Final 4. But then again, Ihaven't really been impressed with MSU.

So you've already reversed your original prediction.

You said Cle. St. wins over Wake and you uh guaranteed it.

 

[philballa09]

i also dont know about cal/maryland


I like usc defense so i'm going w/ them over BC

 

[philballa09]

i'm still deciding between Utah/Zona...Zona is better but Cbud chokes in big games

 

[sylvestermcgrizzly]

W. Ky is a good pick Ill always look iffy

 

[philballa09]

double post

but I'm not 100% USC is on **+$+$* fire...I've been at this $@+# all day at work ignoring allcalls and letting everything go to voicemail.

i think they're going to lose but if they do win its going to be b/t 1-5 points

 

[tmay407]

I only have like 20 of the first round games picked, 7 Sweet 16 teams picked, 2 Elite 8 teams picked, and 1 Final Four team picked so far (I completed theMidwest bracket, so that's where almost all of my Sweet 16 and beyond picks come from). The right side of the bracket is hard as hell.

 

[jamesonnt]

you guys are overthinking way too much.

you got to go with your gut instincts. I sat on my brackets until this afternoon, made my picks, and I'm done with it.

 

[seymore cake]

While we're talking about upsets I also picked temple to take out asu... for what its worth Gottleb seems to agree

 

[clutchshooter]

lotta people looking at louisville like they're going to run straight through.

they finished the season strong but they're not invincible.

still only the 3rd best team outta the big east when the chips are down.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

My upsets are Utah St. over Marquette and VCU over UCLA.

[clutchshooter]
