    The West Bracket Could Be Full of Dogs After This Weekend

    New Mexico has already fallen, looks like Wisky will too. Got a feeling Ohio St goes down to the winner of Iowa St/ND. Wouldn't be surprised if La Salle pulled it off tonight against KState as well.

    Gonzaga may be an awful #1 seed, but they could have a cake walk to the Final Four.

    With Wisky and New Mexico out, I think Arizona will come out of the West.

    Kansas State wins today in KANSAS CITY but other than that I agree with you. Lots of dogs. Like Kstate and Iowa State in first 2 rounds

    If Wichita St pulls an upset over Zaga then they could have a real shot to make it to Final Four.

    That's what happens when you throw all of the most overrated teams in the same region.

    Agreed. Said it right when the bracket came out: Gonzaga is the weakest #1, Ohio St is the weakest #2, KState is the weakest #4. I actually thought New Mexico was legit, guess I was wrong about them. I was at the NCAA tourney two years ago when my Washington Huskies blew them out in the 2nd round when we were a #11 seed and the Lobos were a #3 seed.

    I wanted SLU to be in that region so they could be my instant Final 4 choice. Instead they got screwed royally by getting put with Louisville, Michigan State, and Oregon

    Committee did an awesome job getting the right teams in the tournament, but did an awful job with the seedings and balancing the four regions. Not even sure why I'm giving them credit for getting the right teams in, that part was easy. There were no great bubble teams.

    I think Virginia should have gotten in over Boise. MWC didn't deserve any more teams.

    But Virginia never made a case to make it. They lost to BC and Florida St at the end of the season, not to mention almost losing at home to Maryland. And then they got dominated in the first round of the ACC tournament. They finished off the year 1-3, easily could have been 0-4.

    Think Ohio State plays too much defense for them.

    Thinking the same. If Iowa St is on and hitting their three's, buckeyes could be in trouble though.

    The one year I decide to go to the Sweet 16/Elite 8, I choose this year. Thought I would be seeing some big name teams. Instead I'll be watching a bunch of Cinderella's. Would have preferred to watch the big boys, but I guess I'll be watching the little guys.

    I think all these upsets will help ensure they come out to play and they'll also see that this region is now theirs for the taking

    I agree, and I've been watching every OSU game for years now, I just can't seep them losing this. Probably win by 12-15

    If Ohio State loses its because a team can score in the paint against them. That's the weakness.
