Built Ford Tough Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Getting underway now. Predictions for the #1 seeds? I think they go with: LouisvilleIndianaKansasGonzaga I'd have the same 4 teams, but I'd swap Gonzaga with Kansas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Lol. UCLA gets a 6th seed and Oregon gets a 12th seed. That makes a lot of sense.... I thought UNC would get a 7th, but a Kansas/UNC rematch in the Round of 32 would be nice. That is assuming UNC gets by Nova, which is far from a guarantee. Michigan with a very, very tough draw as well. Their struggles to close the year really bit them in the ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted March 17, 2013 Owner Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 WHY can't VCU be on the other side of the bracket? Damn. Alright Roy, see you in KC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Mami is a 2 seed, yet based on soley on brackets, I'd say they have an easier path to the Final Four than any of the 1 seeds so far. EDIT: Just noticed that Oregon and Cal were 12 seeds and Colorado is a 10 seed. WTF? That is ridiculous. Although, Cal has a nice matchup against UNLV in San Jose.

Built Ford Tough Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Bo Ryan vs. Marshall Henderson is going to be glorious. I'm not a big fan of Gonzaga's bracket, though. It is going to be a tough to go through Pitt, Wisconsin and New Mexico/OSU. It is cool to see them get their first ever 1 seed, but I'd honestly rather have seen them get the 2nd seed in the East region than the 1 seed in the West. I still think Miami has the easiest road to the Final Four than any other school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) This years bracket seems tougher to fill out than past years. You'll either do fantastic or horrible. Edited March 17, 2013 by Make It Naaaashty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owner Real Deal Posted March 18, 2013 Owner Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Does it feel like Louisville and Kansas (the top two #1 seeds) ended up with the two worst brackets of the four? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Does it feel like Louisville and Kansas (the top two #1 seeds) ended up with the two worst brackets of the four?Definitely. Especially Louisville -- They have Duke, who could be a #1 seed, Michigan St. who has a terrific coach and has been good all year, and Saint Louis, who everyone and their mother is obsessed with, and Oklahoma St, who I saw play NC State very early in the year, and has just as much talent as anyone in this tournament. As far as Kansas' region Georgetown, Florida, and VCU are the teams that really scare you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Anybody got any sleepers? I like Creighton to beat Duke in the 2nd round, and also S Dakota St to pull off an upset on Michigan lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunkinDerozan Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Are we doing an OTR bracket thing again this year? Edit: just found it Edited March 18, 2013 by DunkinDerozan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 I like Belmont over Arizona in the West region. I have Cal over UNLV out East. And I have Minnesota beating UCLA in the South Region. I'm sure there will be plenty more upsets, it's just almost impossible to pick them and it does you no good trying to go upset crazy if you are playing for money. I've won my bracket the past two years, and can tell you that picking out that 12 over the 5 upset, or the 13 over the 4, or whatever, really is meaningless. It all comes down to the final four and championship game. My final four is Duke, New Mexico, Florida, Miami. I went out on a limb here, but I figured - hey, college hoops has been super weird this season. I wouldn't be shocked to see a team like New Mexico get to the final four. And, Duke W/ Kelly is a way different team than without him. I expect them to go pretty far. Their backcourt is as good as it's been in years IMO. I really like Cook and Sulamon. Florida is a team that has a ton of talent, and their backcourt is darn good too. I've always thought backcourts and the three ball is what can take you far in the tourney, and FLA has that. Then Miami has been so consistent all year, great coach, Larkin is fearless, Scott, Kadji, Gamble, etc. I really like their squad and their road to the final four. Ultimately, I have Miami winning it over New Mexico. Just a strange year for College hoops, impossible to predict, but that's just my shot at it. Interested to hear everyone elses bracket.
