I'm putting this disclaimer on my bracket. I picked them right after selection sunday and without any mock brackets up or any analysist comments out, so its just a bracket full of my gut choices that i refuse to change now that i made them. So if its total shit, dont be suprised.

Same here, I just wanted to get it filled out before I forget.
What happens if my tee shot lands on a bird's back and he carries it out of bounds but then is attacked by a larger bird who grabs the ball and drops it in the hole? Is that still a hole in one? 'Cause that's how I'm gonna play it.

if u need mock brackets, and someone else's opinion on the matter, then why are you filling out a bracket? It's suppose to be who YOU think is going to win
1. They lost the last 4 games they played 2. They finished 3rd in the 8th best conference 3. They didn't have a decent win since beginning of January (UNLV) and without that, no decent wins sence November
I thought it made sense, I agree with the committee on that one. I'm torn on Stanford - that team did not impress me on how they finished. I don't think they should have made the field -
No change in my final four, but I do have Ohio St. losing to Kansas rather than Georgetown. I sort of came to my senses and realized it was kind of stupid to have Ohio St. losing to Georgetown when they have superior guard play and a better center.
Btw, I can say without a doubt that A&M is going to disappoint a lot of pool betters. I've seen them play half a dozen times this season. Very good, cohesive team, but not talented enough to get by Memphis and Ohio St. in the same weekend. I'm wobbling on whether or not I'm putting them through to the Elite 8 based on that weakness alone.

I have a&m losing to osu, which sounds about right. I really dont see kansas beating UCLA, who i have winning my bracket worth money. Wanna hear a big stat, 9-1 against top 25 teams UCLA is, pretty good stuff. I have UNC winning this one, i think once roy williams brings it down to an 8 man rotation instead of the 12 they were using during the season, they're gonna play a lot tighter, and they are probably the deepest team in the tourney. Now that i've given away some of the mysterys of my bracket you guys better not copy me.! ;D I just get so excited by my picks i cant keep them in.
UNC's sort of a Catch-22 for me. I think Texas matches up really well against UNC. I disagree with you about UNC's depth. I think inside, they're pretty thin after Hansborough and Wright, and to beat Texas, you really need to have depth inside. You need to have depth in general because without a doubt no team will get you in deeper foul trouble quicker than Texas. They're as fast and athletic a starting five as there is right now. BUT if UNC survives Texas which I think is pretty decent possibility, I think they'll beat Georgetown, something I don't see Texas being capable of.
As for Kansas-UCLA, all I can say is Kansas is as deep a team as any I've seen this year. And while I understand the arguments people can make about UCLA's schedule and their homecourt advantage in that bracket, I also know that KU played in what was for my money the most competitive conference in college this year. They play with that swagger that UConn had a few years ago and UNC had two years ago. I think this is their year.
someone convince me not to pick florida. right now im trying to talk myself into a ucla/kansas, oregon, osu, g'town final 4 with g'town winning, but something in my head keeps saying florida.

I took a couple strange risks with my picks this year, but I played it safe with my final 4. I'm using these picks for a work pool I'm in, but I'm not sure if I want to just make this my "Sheet of Integrity" or do a second sheet for this other big money pool my buddy puts together. I've always filled out two brackets, but I think it might be fun to just do one this year. Of course it would suck if I'm out of it early.

I'm very very close to putting Washington St. over Georgetown in that Sweet Sixteen matchup...
I'm still debating that. I had G'town beating them, then losing to UNC, but I might change it. I didn't follow the pac 10 at all this year, I need to do some research on the matchups.
man. some lady keeps screaming at the texas tech vs bc game when TT has the ball. it sounds like sheep being tortured. shes driving me nuts. it would be my luck if i had tix id be seated right in front of her. its bad enough over tv. i cant imagine being near her.
