Who's your Final 4 and champion?

 

Final 4 of Kentucky, Marquette, Florida St. and North Carolina

 

Final of Kentucky and North Carolina

 

Champion North Carolina

 

Too be honest, I kind of wish I would have maybe done it differently, because seeing some of the big upsets, and how close some others have been, i kind of doubt that Kentucky and North Carolina will be in the championship game.

Haha yeah it's a huge reach but that whole region is unpredictable with Syracuse not as talented. IMO, whoever wins between Cincy vs Florida St will get to the Final 4. Hopefully it's Cincy so I can make a lot of dough.

 

At least your Final Four "sleeper pick" didn't lose in the 1st (well, technically 2nd) round, lol.

 

I agree about that region being unpredicatable, though. Even if Syracuse had Melo, it would still be very tough to call. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see any of Vandy, OSU, Wisconsin or FSU make it to the F4. I'd be a bit surprised by Cincy, but not that much since that region is so wide open.

Don't sleep on K State in that region either. IMO they're taking out the Cuse for sure today. They have just as much size as FSU, play just as hard as anyone in the country and Rodriguez is really starting to come into his own. He's a hell of a player I saw him play HS ball down here and absolutely kill Austin Rivers' team. Blew them out by 30.

KSU can most definitely knock off Syracuse, now that Fab is out...but I have a hard time believing they can beat up on Vandy or Wisconsin. If they get God on their side and advance, there's still no chance they can handle Ohio State...it would take FSU to give OSU the boot, first, so everything has to fall into place perfectly for the Wildcats.

 

Now, the biased side of me will say that K-State gets stomped tomorrow, by 20...because that's what I want.

It was the right call by the rules so you can't really complain about it but, damn, what a tough way to lose a game.

no one calls something like that at that stage of the game so i agree with charles barkley COME ON MAYNE

Thanks for the schedule...

 

Looks like I'll essentially miss the first three games because I'm going to be out all day. Which are some of the better games I think all tournament match up wise.

 

I'm really looking forward to that Iowa St.-Kentucky game. Even though I have Kentucky winning it all (clear cut best team ALL season), I could definitely see them slipping up to the under the radar Iowa St.

Ugly first half. Both teams can't hit a shot to save their lives, committing turnovers and neither one has any sort of flow to their offense. Some solid defense has been played, though.

 

Still if either of these teams play like this in the next round against Wisconsin/Vandy, they are going to get destroyed. Syracuse is just lucky K-State can't shoot the three.

I have OSU winning this game, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Gozaga wins this if Pangos is hitting from the outside. That is a concern, though, since Craft is an excellent defender.

 

I kind of worry how effective Sullinger will be as Sacre has the size and length to bother him.

 

OSU are the favourites, but if they take the Zags lightly they will be given a serious test. I'd love to see it as well, since I really don't give a damn about my bracket.
