I have to complete my bracket and I have a few questions still? I've always liked the upset possibilities in the 5-12 and 6-11 matches generally but I'm having trouble deciding if Pacific is strong enough to get past Providence. I already believe Florida is going to do a Jekyll and Hyde and bow out to Manhatten and North Carolina will continue their weak play with a first round exit. Does anyone thing Syracuse will suffer a let down this year? I think their finish last year gave them a better seed than they deserve.

There's not much time left...it's madness!!!!!!!!

Help!

We get 47 pages (and counting) of dribble about GTAC being closed and an offshoot thread with speculation about who the guilty party was and I can't even get one post from someone with an opinion on Pacific, Manhatten, Syracuse and Carolina or even a jab about the craziness of this tournament?

I know you're not watching the games yet.

:confused:

I figured that would be your opinion. I too have those fond meriories of past personal brushes with the Orangemen, but I'm concerned about them and Carolina. I guess I should go with the favourites when dealing with the denfending champs.

Doc,

Take Carolina in the first round. But there going to have there hands full with Texas in round 2.

Syracuse is better than people think but they don't have Carmello this year. They'll get past BYU and maybe, maybe Maryland...maybe. But they won't beat Stanford.

Providence will whip Pacific like an old mule.

Florida beats Manhattan in a game closer than expected.

Don't miss the Wisconsin vs Pitt game in round two. Should be one of the best games in the tourney. If you like defense and bangin. Which I do. The winner of this game is going to the final four.

It's not all about hockey ! Go Badgers !!!

Hey Doc, who do you have for the final four? I am just finishing filling out mine. I have Kentucky, Oklahoma St, Duke, and UConn.
I think Manhattan will be the only 5/12 upset

I picked two 11/6 upsets - Utah and western Mich.
What are the thoughts of these games?

It's too late to change now, but I went with Manhatten and Syracuse and although I love the Heels, I went against them in the pool and will cheer them on in the game. If Carolina wins, I'll take the loss in the pool and be still be happy. I went on a flyer early with Pacific and I've got UConn beating Kentuck for the championship. I've got Duke and OK State rounding out the final four.

Hang on kids because it's going to be a fun two weeks.

I happened to catch some of the Big East tourney live last week and UConn impressed me. Now I'm surre if I was there for the ACC tourney I would have been saying the same thing about Maryland, but they looked good, they're confident and there's the Toronto connection.

Everyone else picked Duke or Kentucky so I figured I should be different if I wanted to win.

I've got the Zags right up until the final four, loosing to KY...I can't decide if this is there breakthrough year after knocking on the door for the last few or if this will be a tough year for them.

Yeah but they don't have a really good nickname to go with it. It's the nickname that sells the merchandise like the SC Game Cocks, TCU's Horned Frogs and the recent sensation from Water's Meade Minn. the Fighting Nimrods.

Bannana Slugs rule!

You beat me to it. I kept thinking it was Santa Clara and couldn't figure out why they had the wrong nickname.

How about that team from Manhatten, yeah baby. BYU was holding Syracuse pretty tight but appears to be fading...I would have been really mad at HowardHughes if Syracuse tanked.

And clutch at the line when the games was on the line. I still don't feel good about Carolina though...against Air Force normally it shouldn't be an issue but after a shakey ACC tourney and with Air Force basically playing a home game in Denver, it could be interesting.
