🏀 You guys starting to think about your brackets? I've got a few teams I'm riding, a few I'm calling

[TerryP]

I believe in 'Cuse. (Here's where I expect Howard to jump in and say, "you always believe in 'Cuse.)

A lot depends on who they face (duh!) but I'm not a believer in UK. If they were a team that gets a #5 seed, that's likely my #12 upset.

Not sold on Pitt, but do love their basketball.

Early entries for my Elite 8 include 'Ville, 'Cuse, Wichita St., and AZ.

I'm likely to shy away from B1G teams...just not that impressed.

Have Cuse winning it all. Watch out for Michigan and St Louis though. I don't want to say they're sleepers, but are you hearing much about them?

Elite 8: Cuse, Wichita State, Florida, Arizona(iffy on this one), Michigan, Nova, UNC(they have been playing lights out lately), and idk, I guess UK but I'm not really sure on that pick.


Rarely do you see 3-4 top seeds make it all the way to the Final 4, but I have 3. UF, Wichita State, and Cuse. Still need another team though.

Not sure on why you're not impressed with B10 teams. To me that is the most fundamentally sound conference and the most fun to watch.

Changing up my elite 8 after seeing Doug McDermott destroy Nova. Inserting Creighton, taking out Nova.

Ugly loss by 'Cuse at home to BC in OT .. Had a feeling one of these days their close games would come back to bite 'em. I still think they are one of the teams to beat in the tourney, though.

Anyone catch Auburn *ALMOST* upsetting Florida last night? So close .. :tongue-new:

Nova is too unsteady for me. Yeah they are consistently top 5-10 but they do not impress me. I think they will choke early on.

As a Philly native, I gotta rep my Big 5 though .. St. Joe's, Temple, Penn, La Salle, and 'Nova!

The loss by 'Cuse might have won them the title. I think the pressure, otherwise, would have been too great.

 

[bamaraider]

Michigan State hit 17 3's versus Purdue last night, a school record. Due to injuries, I had Michigan from the B10 making to the elite 8 and because they're sort of young and got upset by Nebraska ( a team on the bubble..). But with that said, I would not be surprised if they made it to the elite 8.

Yep, Terry likes Cuse. He will take them right now for next year. Me, I like Billy D and the Gayters. If Michigan State gets healthy, they can make a deep run.
