Here’s my bracket for the NCAA tournament that starts tomorrow. I’ve got Kansas, Syracuse, Villanova, and Kentucky in the final four, and Kansas versus Kentucky in the final. I predict Kentucky to win it all 68-66. Anybody else got a better pick?
Sracuse vs KY in the finals w/KY winning it on a stellar game from Patterson and Bledsoe as Wall and Cousins get all the attention (both bfore and during the game).
Denny, a 12 beats a five every year, in most years, two 12s beat 5s. Utah St. or UTEP would be there. Other upset Mich St. over Kansas.
Also Clemson over Missouri? Clemson has never won a tourney game, and Anderson (coach of Mizzou) has taken two teams to the Sweet 16 (Mizzou – elite 8 last year and UAB). Missouri will upset W. Vir and give Kentucky a scare. Calipari will be sweating because Anderson and Missouri took down his Memphis Tigers last year.
Okay, so I’m from Missouri… I have Georgetown, K State, Kentucky and Duke in Final Four. K State against Kentucky in the Final, Kentucky winning.
Mizzou is the coldest team in the country… They lost to Nebraska by 15 their last game. I sure hope you are kidding about having Mizzou beat West Virgina(who won the Big East tourney). Mizzou wont beat Clemson, but if they do they will get dominated by West Virginia.
I hear you Matt. However, they have the best pressure defense in the country and if they hit their 3-pointers they can beat anybody. But I agree West Virginia will be tough…

Kentucky is too young.. They will not win it all.
Oops… I said I had Kentucky in my final four, but I dont… I have West Virginia winning that division and losing to Kansas in the finals.

At least North Carolina can’t win it this year.

My picks for the final four, the championship game, and the winner are identical to yours. Except I predict a more high-scoring affair. 80-69.

Florida (go Gators) probably won’t get past KSU but maybe KSU will go a little higher? YMMV.
