Agreed.



So, what are y'alls picks?



I got Louisville, Georgetown, UCLA and Memphis in the Final Four with Memphis winning it all.


My Coppin State theory did NOT pay off well! Luckily I only had them in the Elite Eight. KU, Louisville, Texas, UCLA (I actually hate the B12) KU-UCLA with KU winning by 8


Those were pretty risky picks on old Coppin State. Even the Kansas one is a break with tradition. The Big 12 has one championship or something in 50 years, so picking a Big 12 team to win it all is pretty gutsy.

Kansas just can't seem to win in the tournament. Even with Bill Self's recruits, I don't think Illinois makes it to the Final Four in '05 with Self as head coach.

Mine are almost identical to yours - I have Texas over Memphis though and UCLA winning it all.

But, Xavier is my top upset team as a 3 seed. I have them losing to that red hot Georgia team in the first round.


:x So close...so close...



EDIT: And there's an A-10 - MVC matchup in the NIT when Dayton plays Illinois State.

Well, I think the A-10 has shown pretty well why it is considered the superior league. Xavier is in the Elite 8, while UMASS is in the Final Four of the NIT. Yet I don't see any MVC teams playing right now...except maybe the CBI.
