This is the year...Look for a 1 seed, falling to a 16 seed[maybe twice]..
I would sure like to see the Wildcats win, too...but they haven't seemed to put together a whole game for most of the year..
Several Big East teams are capable of winning the big prize...This would be great...but my basketball know how is going to the Gonzaga/UCLA winner, out of Oakland Arena..
Hunch...Duke and Memphis fall to 16 seeds..Hot hand 3 pointers do the trick..
Duke and Memphis are probably the two best teams during the year, but both are not sharp right now...the stage is set.. For them to be upset,,they would have to be held under 65 points..

More great games! I'm rooting for an all-SEC final two, LSU and Florida. Florida has beaten LSU twice this year, but at the time, LSU didn't have two of their starters. Thomas and D. Mitchell were both injured and sat out most of the SEC tournament. Turns out it was good strategy since they appear to be well now! I sure didn't seen George Mason coming, but then, they do have the name. :} DonM (ason)

"Florida, the No. 3 seed from the Minneapolis Region, controlled No. 1 Villanova from the start and didn’t let the Wildcats find any rhythm, cruising to a 75-62 win."
... oh well ... I was pulling for them also Larry ... t.
PS - Larry - I have a cousin who had quite a career playing football for 'Nova in the late 60's early 70's .. wide receiver - Mike Siani ... #1 draft for the Oakland Raiders in '72 ... t.

Don't forget to look back at my earlier post before the March Madness started....My pick is in the Final4.....not the team I hoped would win, but the team that was the logical one to me...to win it all...All their wins were...over great teams..
