What do you think of my NCAA Bracket Picks?

[TheNinja]

I can't decide on Oklahoma State, Pitt, or Wake Forrest out of the East Rutherford group. - right now I have Ok State but that could change.

I doubt Kansas loses to Providence. The players are now starting to execute Bill Self's system consistently and play tough defense. They are peaking at just the right time of the year. Plus they have 3 juniors who have been to 2 final fours. Providence, on the other hand, was stumbling toward the end of the regular season. It's all about momentum and experience.

i seem to remember KU getting beat in the big12 tourney.
truth be told, i wouldnt be suprised if Ill-Chicago beats KU.

Do you seriously see Kansas going down to UIC, especially since they are playing just 30 minutes away from Lawrence? The entire first two rounds for Kansas is basically a home game. Kemper Arena is literally down the highway from Allen Fieldhouse. Taking this into account, I seriously doubt seeing KU go down in the first two rounds. Now, KU vs. Kentucky in the sweet 16 is an entirely different story.

Crosses fingers for: Hot-shot Elder, a few monster dunks from Muhammad to lower morale (best dunker in the ncaa, easily), Jarret Jack on assists and jumpers, Big Bird dominating the back yard (Kentucky doesn't have a big man really), and the 5th man would rotate through Moore, Ewing, McHenry. I would cream my pants for a GT/Duke Championship match.

umm....apparently, you have never heard of Hakim Warrick? Muhammad does have ridiculous dunking skills but I can't even count how many Warrick dunks have made Sportscenter's Top 10. The guy is a freak. And if you want to talk about lowering morale, go ask Royal Ivey how he felt after getting seriously posterized by Warrick in last year's Final Four.

st. joes won't make it past sweet 16. unc won't beat texas. vanderbilt won't lose to w. michigan.

So I take it that you are either a disgruntled OU fan or an OSU fan who doesn't like to root for other big 12 schools in the NCAA tourney.

Omg nice pic lmao... Deez Nutz!

I'm picking Xavier to beat Miss State in the second round... they are the hottest team in the tourney right now... also does anyone know where possible Cincy vs Illinois game will be played in the 2nd round? If that's in Columbus, it's a definite Cincy will win. Also, don't be surprised if Wisconsin upsets Pitt, b/c they're playing in Milwaukee

well you took it wrong, the only team from the big12 i root against is texas.
the jayhawks coach used to play and coach at OSU, i like Self. hes a good coach and guy and all. but im just not that impressed by them.

If you do watch the sportscenter's top 10, you'd have noticed Muhammad too has been on it eleventy billion times.

Yes, I realize that. Let's just say it'd be one heck of a dunk contest between those two . I was just calling you out on the part that saying Muhammed is EASILY the best dunker. It's just not true. Warrick is right there if not better. I've seen both play a lot though this year and their dunks can really ignite their respective teams and leave you with your draw dropped saying, "how did he do that?"

Ga. Tech and St. Joe's won't be there..

You mean UConn will beat Stanford?

I think he means UVM will beat UConn. Go Cats! "You can't stop him"

YOU CAN'T STOP HIIM is correct. UVM wins by 3, and Coopenrath puts up 40. Leaving for buffalo tomorrow.... GO CATS GO!

The only tough game they have is against Wake Forest..

I'm picking Charlotte over them in the second round
Still flipping a coin on Georgia Tech and Kentucky, depends on what Tech team shows up
Wake Forest over Pitt
Maryland over UConn
Duke over Mississippi State

Duke over the winner of Kentucky/Ga Tech in the Final

Western Michigan will bounce Vandy easily

Yeah dude, Muhammad is the best college dunker I have seen, besides some of the crazy stuff that nate robinson did.
