Besides, UCONN is a quick, tough defensive team, they're much thicker up front than UNC, and 4's & 5's will beat guards any day of the week. Whoever comes out of the syracuse bracket will take the tourney IMO.

I do agree UCONN is a good team, and big upfront.... but where UNC has them beat is in the back court. Two different style of teams no doubt. Im not too sure i'd be too confident with UCONN after letting a 15 seed come that close to ending it for them. If they can only beat Central Florida by 6, i question what they would do against a contender like UNC who put up 58 in the first half today.

first round matchups mean nothing. Highers seeds always put it in cruise control after they run up a large lead. UNC today just kept their starters in longer than UCONN.

UNC also has the tougher road to the 8's with Florida/Villinova bearing down on them, and both those teams are very well balanced, and I think, have a chance to knock off Carolina if they come out flat in any way. Since Carolina is notorious for being inconsistant, that's why I picked UCONN.

Originally posted by Sly_Guy Kansas is a slumping team, and I'm not expecting much from them either. I don't care what injuries they say they have, 5-5 record over the last 1/3 of the season is not gonna cut it for a #3, let alone a bid at a #1.

ha ha. Kansas is out.

Originally posted by Sly_Guy Albuquerque Bracket Zaga' I'm not worried about. When they're a lower seed they're more dangerous, but every year that they're expected to do something they choke.

I sometimes grow tired of being always right. But not during basketball season. Goodbye 'Zaga. Thanks for coming out.

Ok, so I don't have a quote for the Boston College upset, but I did write to my sister about them going out within the first 2 rounds of the tournament. So again, I'm right.

But that was easily the best, most intense game of the tournament so far. Up to BC's first loss of the season, I was gonna pick them to win it all this year. Then they went in the tank and I said they weren't worthy of a higher seed. Someone should hire me for that selection commitee, there'd never be any upsets.
