    My final 4 is Texas, OKS, Zaga and Stanford.

    My hardest call was Texas, I am picking Cincy to pull the upset on Duke (I also think they are vulnerable to Arizona if Arizona plays well). But I think Texas has the right depth and shooters to get past both MSU and Cincy. Honestly could have gone with any of the 4.

    I have Stanford over OKS in the NC.

    I do think the "real championship" will be played in Phoenix as long as Okafor holds up physically. I say both defenses dominate but Stanford edge's them because of better free throw shooting int he closing minutes.

    I am also in swirve with 2 entries 2050, 2051, if anyone wants to add me to their watch list let me know their #s. I varied some things a little, most notably have UConn replacing Stanford as the champion and Pitt replacing OSU through the runner up spot in my 2nd (not original bracket).

    Damn Manny, mine is almost exactly like that except I have Stanford in the Final Four and not UConn.

    Anybody else have St. Joe's losing in the second round to the 8 or 9 seed?

    Yeah, in one of my pay ones (I'm in 5), I have them losing to Tech, who goes on to the Elite 8.

    I thought about picking Tech over St. Joe's, but decided not to. It seems like TT hasn't done crap in the tournament since Knight started coaching there.

    My Final Four:

    St. Joe's
    Gonzaga
    Duke
    UConn

    Uconn over St. Joe's in the championship.

    I'm putting a lot on Okafor's back. Hope he can shoulder the load.

    Same here, I don't Tech making it to the Elite 8 though, I have them eventually losing to Wake.

    All I know is CBS is showing Dr. Phil instead of the last minute of a 2 point BYU/Cuse game!!!

    :mad:

    By the way, I'm 5-1 so far today...

    Ugh Manhattan and the Raiders screwed up my ballot.
    I'm still 5-2 though (assuming the Cards win) so far.

    Man! I would've had 1st place outright if it weren't for those damn dumbass Dayton players. Now I have to settle for being tied for 2nd. :mad:

    I was looking at my bracket and had a sobering thought - a trained lemur who only picks higher seeds would've gone 14-2 today - and I did worse than that. . . Now it's Pued vs the Selection Committee, and I'm down already. That irks me.
