Pitt is a constant underachiever in the tournament. Even with this easy bracket they'll find a way to blow it and get tossed in the Sweet 16 or Elite 8. UF as a 2 seed is a joke. Michigan State could come out of that region as well. Don't underestimate their experience and leadership with Lucas and Izzo.

Kansas will be in the Final Four. I don't see how the Morris twins will fail in this tourney. It would be different if we were relying on Sherron Collins again, but we aren't.

 

I'm not sure what's up with the love-fest for Notre Dame, either. Hansbrough is going to play selfish basketball all the way through, just like he did last game.

 

I hate Duke, but Nolan Smith is a monster. I figured he would be out for the tourney after that toe injury, but hell, the dude didn't even play like he was hurt earlier.

 

I hope K-State gets their asses kicked, too. It would be nice if it happened in the first round.

 

I have a gut feeling it'll be an OSU/KU championship game, and it's going to take the twins to contain Sullinger.

Ohio State, San Diego State, Kansas, Pitt

 

I'm picking the upset in the West. Nolan Smith will probably get his, but Duke often shoots themselves out of games with their inconsistent three point shooting. San Diego State is athletic, well coached, and does a good job on the glass. I just love them for some reason.

 

Outside of that, the other 3 #1 seeds will make it to the Final Four.

Initial thoughts bracket:

 

UNC

UConn

Kansas

Pitt

 

St. John's loses to Pitt in elite 8

 

I agree if there's any year Pitt makes the FInal 4 its this year, but they'll find a way to choke. I love K-State and MSU's experience in that region.

I prefer teams no built around 1 team, I feel St. John's will rely too heavily on Dwight Hardy, MSU too heavily on Kalin Lucas and I just don't think K-State is a good tournament team (I had them last year, they [expletive]ed me). Ashton Gibbs nailing 3's and Wannamaker grabbing boards should be a deadly duo and Pitt has been great away from home this year.
