Who do you guys think is gonna win it all? My pick is Wisconsin. Yes, Wisconsin. They have the best defense in the nation led by Michael Flowers - who will shut down your best perimeter player. They have the ultimate hustle man Joe Krabbenhoft, who has gotten stitches 35 times and Im not making that up. Brian Butch and Alonzo Landry both can play and Landry is younger bro of Houston Rockets F Carl Landry. This team plays great as a team. I want to say Louisville, but I just cant. Just wondering what you guys think. Also, you gotta love Bo Ryan. Check this out.

If you play out the NIT on whatifsports.com you end up with Arizona State vs. Ole Miss for the NIT championship. ASU wins by a slim margin.
I didn't do this myself, but someone on another board did and I found it quite exciting.

No way. They are just too slow. No big ten team will make it past the sweet 16.BigTrev34 wrote:Who do you guys think is gonna win it all? My pick is Wisconsin. Yes, Wisconsin.

UCLA tops UNC, 81-78
safe pick, I know, but extremely realist

I agree Dave with UCLA and UNC in the championship game, but I have UNC topping UCLA 88-85. Either way I feel this year will be fairly top heavy, probably all 1 or 2 seeds in the final four.olemsdave76 wrote:UCLA tops UNC, 81-78

It usually doesnt happen, but I believe this might be the year the final four comes down to all #1 seeds.

Wisconsin is my pick bc I know if they do win, which they have a very legit shot, I win my brackets. I always go out on alimb. It hasnt worked since Syracuse. i picked that and got it perfect. I have a man crush on Melo and loved Hakim Warrick. I know everyone will pick UCLA, UNC and Kansas and I understand. They are not too slow and they will play at their pace. This is bad to say but Im rooting for UK right now. I hate Tom Crean and love Joey Crawford (not the moron NBA ref). Go Cats! Man, that looks bad.
im not much of a basketball watcher, but i did a bracket just to make it interesting. i have a memphis-tennessee rematch with tenn winning. probably not going to happen, but for me, it would be the most interesting matchup.
Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton... Old times they are not forgotten.

As much as I hate them and the university I have Memphis winning it all. Usually I have them making it out before the final four based on Cal not coaching, but he's actually implemented an offense that's working instead of letting them run around with no objective and the Tigers are easily the deepest team in the tourney.
Another team to watch out for is KU. My non number one seed who can make some noise is Stanford. Having those Lopez twins can potentially carry them a good ways.

I got to tell ya I believe that it will be Kansas and Duke, yes Duke call me crazy. I say the final will be 82-72 Kansas. With all the talent that Kansas has they're a shoe in to win it all in my opinion.
“Winning is not a sometime thing, it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while, and you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.”
That's is pretty amazing, since '85 when the field expanded to 64 teams there has not been an all #1 seed final four.olemsdave76 wrote:Thanks for the props...and four # 1's has never happened.rewalters wrote:I agree Dave with UCLA and UNC in the championship game, but I have UNC topping UCLA 88-85.

The closest it came was in '93 , when three #1 seeds (Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina) and a #2 seed (Kansas) made it to the Final Four. Indiana was the other #1 seed that year who lost to Kansas in the Elite Eight. Michigan won the NC but later vacated over the Weber violations giving the title to UNC.

UNC has been really impressive. I would not have picked them to do well before the first tip off, but after the last two games, I think they have a shot. They dominated ARK today and I could not have been happier!
I give a real nod to Butler! That's one spunky team and they gave TN all they could stand. While I wanted to see the SEC do well, I found myself rooting for Butler today just because they played so hard and never gave up. I'm sure TN felt lucky to get out of the gym with a win today.
