NCAA tournament sleepers?

Which team ranked 5 or higher (up to 16) do you think you think is going to go the farthest in the tournament? I like Georgia Tech, Xavier, Georgetown, Tennesse as a few *possible* sleepers.

I think Tenessee will go pretty far.


But you do know who's going to win it all don't you. That's right Michigan State.

GO SPARTANS!!!🙂
 
George Mason will take the title. That'll make up for me missing the game in Boise on my birthday. 🙁

GMU 1997, SU 1998
 
All I have to say is Wisconsin better not take Georgia State lightly. They have some transfers from Big East and ACC schools, and those kids can play. Also, the winner of Virginia-Gonzaga will also be very dangerous as both teams are solid and have excellent backcourts.

Here's my darkhorses. Start with Indiana, they are gonna be tough. They've really started to 'gel' as a team in the last few weeks, and it's always good to 'peek' at tournament time. The other one I think is not getting the respect it deserves is Boston College, watch out for them Eagles.

Most overrated team? Watch Oklahoma and Iowa State get bounced early.....

That's funny I was just talking this morning with a guy about how Boston College should have been a number 2 seed instead of a number 3, couldn't agree with you more. Also, couldn't agree with you more about Indiana! I watched them play the last few weeks and they've gotten really good. An unranked team beating the number 4 seed in the country? That's a pretty big improvement.

Surprised this has dropped with all the great games in the past two days!

I teach philosophy at Gonzaga, and am relieved beyond belief we got by VA today. The campus and Spokane goes nuts for these guys, and as a prof to one of them, I know they really are a neat bunch of guys. 🙂

Glad to see that they're getting some much deserved respect not only from SI and Sporting News (both have them picked to make Sweet 16 for third straight year!), but from you all too. I thought we were shafted being seated 12th, and in the South no less. Happily, it didn't matter. 🙂

With OK loosing today, we play the 13th seed Sunday. How often do you see a 12-13 game?

Go Zags! 🙂
 
I've got to go with Iowa. School loyalty and all. It's kind of nice seeing them pull their heads out of the black hole they got stuck in when Recker cracked his kneecap. They were actually moving up in the rankings until that happened and the coach (the moron) had to tell the press that we had no chance without Luke. Kind of killed all confidence the rest of them had built up. GO IOWA.
