I'll take the field.

So @RoadDawg55 can laugh at me later for how dialed in I am ... I will take Villanova over Arizona for the title.
In a Kentucky vs the field bet, the field looks strong to me. Computer models that I've seen place both Wisconsin and Arizona as toss ups against Kentucky. -
Iron Law of March Madness. Gonzaga doesn't make it past the Sweet 16. I have them losing in round two to Davidson.

Wisconsin is going to do to Oregon, what Oregon's football team does to all their inferior opponents. Wiscy will beat Oregon by 30. If Altman takes this team to the Round of 32, it's an unbelievable accomplishment given the dumpster fire this team was in October. I just wish I could see an Altman coached Oregon team that had Ernie Kent's recruits in the mid 2000's

I'm not a huge AZ guy, but I'm not sold on Villanova in that watered down "Big East," though I haven't watched any of their gaymes this year and I don't know much about them.Tequilla said:So @RoadDawg55 can laugh at me later for how dialed in I am ...

Just turned on ESPN and who would have thought dez would be the only husky playing in the nit or ncaa.
Whoops

I've never been a guy that look at the chalk and expects that to happen. Kentucky is good ... just not 100% convinced they are as good as everybody seems to think they are. They are being crowned but haven't really been tested by a good team in at least a few months.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:

I'm not a huge fan of Arizona, but my thought process factors in the fact that Arizona has the size that can negate Kentucky (Wisconsin has the same) and that when faced with the thoughts of the Wisconsin vs Arizona game, Arizona may be slightly better this year and Wisconsin lacks some of the depth they had last year. The lack of depth really concerns me otherwise I'd have picked Wisconsin to win the whole thing - too much risk with foul trouble.
I really like Villanova's draw. They are a solid team that does a lot of things I like from their unselfishness offensively to their strong positional defense that creates transition opportunities for them. This is probably the best Nova team since the Scotty Reynolds team that got to the Final Four. I'm not sold on Virginia in that bracket because they can really struggle to score and I just don't have faith that in a game against good teams that you can expect to win the game 50-48.
If the champion is outside of Duke, Wisconsin, Arizona, Villanova, and Duke, I'd be really surprised. -

Fuck all the haters this is the best tournament on the planet. And no don't say Stanley cup or World Cup this is fucking America damn it.
Eastern covers the 8 vs Georgetown
Valpo over Maryland
Zona wins the whole fucking thing.

Looking forward to the Eastern game - will be down in Portland for the evening session tonight. 2 of the better games of the day.
Really like the Valpo call over Maryland. I have both Buffalo and Valpo winning against 2 overrated teams - West Virginia more or less beat up on the underbelly of the Big 12 ... any team that shoots the ball at 41% is a ripe candidate for an upset IMO. -
It's not the late 80s and 90s. It's just not what it was. Some of the games in the first two rounds are kind of decent. Though I'll get burned out by Sunday night.JaWarrenJaHooker said:Fuck all the haters this is the best tournament on the planet.

I'll watch some of the next rounds but it usually becomes a situation where I'll do something else and then tune in when I think the last five minutes will be.
I remember watching the final four or five years ago. It was Duke and some mid major trash team like Butler or Davidson or something. NOC about mid majors when it comes down to it. It's entertainment. You need stars (not one and dones) so people can follow a team year after year and you need scoring. They have neither. They're simply milking the interest casual fag fans have over their pool and possibly their team instead of addressing how to make the game better.

Did we win yet? I'm pumped that we're going to be national football and basketball champs in 2015.

If you couldn't tell that the 7th place game in the Battle 4 Atlantis would be a preview of a tourney game for a S16 birth then I can't help youMakaDawg said: -
Washington can come back in the second half if they regain their composure.

This is the greatest event in sports. Better than the Superb Owl. Better than opening weekend in CFB (barely, years of losing did this).
