KSU got a horrible draw, Utah State will be a tough game.

KU has the easiest path to the final four, they could be tested against Notre Dame, but they rely so much on the 3 pointer it is do or die.

That said, any team, any given night can pull of a win.  Especially this year which seems muddled down.

???

just because...(and just in case they decide to show up and play... )

GO CU BUFFS (clapping)


What's that, what do you mean they didn't get selected? Must be a conspiracy.

I got mine in..../Go Bucknell Bisions!

Up to 50 people.  Only 1 entry per person to keep it fair.  A person with 2 entries will be judged on the lesser performing entry.

Betting Kansas or Bill Self in the NCAA tourney is like betting on Peyton Manning in the playoffs. its a risky pick. Nothing against any of them, but they suck you into thinking they are set up great for a deep playoff/tourney run, then they lose to a wild card team or in the 1st or second rd of the tourney as a top 2 seed. 

Yeah, no doubt they have struggled in 1st or 2nd round games after dominating the regular season.  Being in KS, I watch the wildcats and hawks on a regular basis.

The Wildcats will go as far as pullen taken them, he is a heck of a player and if they get hot, they can make a run. 

The Jayhawks weakness is guard play, particularly tyshawn taylor.  If Taylor and Johnson play well, they will win the whole thing.  The Morris twins can score inside and out, robinson is a man on the glass, and reed can stroke it.

I root for all the Big 12 in the tournament, then I go with the state of KS teams, and lastly I go with the Wildcats over the Jayhawks.

I also think A&M can do some damage, not high on Mizzou or a Barnes led Texas team.
