This is a wide open field this year. I have Ohio State winning it all, but I think SDSU will make the Final Four. I can't wait.

Having followed the Gators very closely this year, I'll admit that a 2 seed is high for this team. I realistically expected a 3 or 4, but it really doesn't matter at all. Everyone has to win the same amount of games in order to take home a Title. This is why they play the games. The best teams will get to the Final Four. Seeds don't mean that much.

My Final Four is OSU, Dewk, Louisville, and Florida with Dewk beating Louisville for the title. Florida is there based mostly on my own homer bias and the fact that that Southeast region is probably the softest of the four. And I'm just throwing **** to the wall with Louisville. My bracket usually goes in the trash after the 2nd round anyway and who the hell had Butler going as far as they did last year?

San Diego State is going to push Dook's **** in, unless Tennessee does it first.

There are some overrated teams this year (Syracuse as a #3, FLORIDA as a #2???!!!) and some underrated ones (Richmond for instance). Still trying to figure out how Syracuse got a 3 seed over my Cardinals (#4).

Sorry CedarPhin, but Kentucky got screwed. And they didn't even get dinner first. Their draw is horrible, they may not make it past WVU again this year. I think they match up pretty good with Ohio State, but not with WVU.

I think Kentucky's hitting stride at the right time. They drew a hell of a bracket though. I thought they should be at least a 3 seed this year, having won the SEC Title Game pretty convincingly too. I was shocked it was a 4 seed. Had they lost, I could have seen it, but they won it.

That's going to be the bracket to watch though.

I can't see Dook making it to Houston this year. Not a chance.

I totally agree. I really like the way SDSU is playing right now.

I could even see them losing a possible matchup with Texas in the Sweet 16.

[CedarPhin]

Texas won't make it past the first weekend, especially the way they've been playing lately. They're a feast or famine team though, so they could make it to the Sweet 16.

You know, I was a bit hesitant on them going into the MWC Tourney, but they "wowed" me, especially in that title game. They've got everything, plus a coach that's won it all before.

That's my favorite, but this year, it's really anyone's game.
