Who are your picks? Here are mine. Please let me know what you think. I can always change things too. There were some tough games, but I think I did well in choosing. I chose carefully.

Yeah, I chose a lot of safe picks this year. That's because I think there will not be as many upsets this year as last. But, of course I could be wrong. Last year I came in second in my pool, there were only like 15 people, though. This year, I hope to win it, lol.

Yea I don't like doing the "safe" picks just because I always seem to be wrong so I just go gut feeling on it, alot of the 12-5,11-6,10-7,9-8 games are pretty much tossups on who shows up or not.

This year, the 11-6 games don't seem too close. I really cannot see UCLA losing to VCU, Marquette losing to Utah State, or West Virginia losing to Dayton. However, I can see Temple upsetting AZ State. That should be an interesting game.

I acutally picked Utah St to beat Marquette and VCU to beat UCLA, VCU 2 years ago beat a #2 seed Duke and still have alot of that team back and their best player from then too Eric Maynor.

Re: 2009 NCAA Tournament

I got a Final Four of:

Louisville
Marquette
Pitt
Syracuse

With Louisville over Pitt in the Championship.

I am very close to taking USC into the Elite 8 by taking them over Mich St.

Anyone got input on the following games?

FSU vs. Wisconsin
TX Vs. Minn
Illinois vs. W. Ken (I am really struggling with this one)
OSU vs. Siena

I picked that, they're too athletic for MSU, i bolded who I picked, most of the analysts say Siena could be a big sleeper, too bad they have Louisville in the 2nd round if they win, I think W. Ken will win because Illinois' PG and leader broke his hand a few days ago.

Thanks man, USC has been absolutely on fire lately, so they could be trouble for a team like MSU like you said.

I got all the ones you picked on my iffy ones, except for Wisconsin over FSU. I just don't see that much in FSU, but maybe I'm missing something. Also I needed a couple bigger upsets like that.

I can't tell if Marqutte in the Final Four is genius or just insane :lol:

HAVE YOU SEEN UTAH STATE PLAY!?!?!?!

yah, they may be in the WAC, but when they were playing Nevada last night i was at Outback Steakhouse they were up like 30-8 or something. They pass the ball around as well as any of the teams seeded 3-8 on here, dont underestimate.

And hasn't it been NEVER that there have been 3 number 1's in the final 4 and 2 number 1's in the championship?

I could be wrong, can someone please correct me on this!?> =]

overall not bad picks, throw in a couple more 12-5 through 10-7 upsets though
