    For my final? UCLA and NC. I know it's rare to get two number one's in the finals, but they are just so damn good. I have Xavier and Michigan State as sleepers.

    I have Kansas getting to the Final Four...and Kansas state making it to the Elite Eight...

    I'm hoping for Saint Mary's to be a sleeper too...I actually think they'll be a good match up against Texas. Everyone's giving me shit about St. Mary's getting passed Texas....but I think they're a good match up.

    Sorry Piaf. In this country there is huge dropoff in productivity during the college basketball championship because so many people blow off work and classes to watch the games.

    I like pro-basketball a million times better than college hoops, but I can see this happening:

    Memphis over Standford
    Duke over UCLA

    NC over TN
    Kansas over Georgetown

    Then...

    Duke over Memphis
    NC over Kansas

    NC beats Duke for the championship.

    I'd have Arkansas as a sleeper, just for kicks.




    Now that's some true hoop wisdom. I bow down to your great contribution to this thread!

    Can you see the fun in college boys playing basketball?

    Oh wait, I guess you do because you like to watch athletic college boys.

    college sports are much bigger over there because there's actually money in it. it's like a whole separate league. whereas the european football players are signed onto major club teams from ages as young as 15-16, and when we're talking homegrown players, some players have been with their club since they were mere children.

    I don't really watch until the sweet sixteen, and only so long as it's a close game to the wire.

    I'd like to see Kansas and KSU meet in the final for that bracket. George Mason went down, so I'll take Davidson as my sleeper for they way they took care of Gonzaga.
