    Simple question. Even money, do you take the No. 1 seeds or the rest of the field?

    I'm jumping all over the No. 1 seeds, but at the same time, nothing is going to surprise me in this tourney.

    I estimate #1 have about 56% of winning all. So, take them.

        I'd give three of the four serious thought and just ignore Kansas personally.

          Lol, yeah I'd sell off Kansas

          4 best teams (chances to win it all) : Indiana, Lousville, Florida, and Miami

            Agreed. I don't think Gonzaga has a very good chance either.

            Most other years I would say the one seeds, but this year I have to go field without hesitation. Louisville/Indiana aren't winning this 50% of the time.

              Would have said the same thing a couple weeks ago. Florida hasn't impressed me at all as of recent. I'd throw Duke right up there with these 4.

                  how many times did number 1 go down already? It is not even a hard choice to take the field this season.

                    I want to fade Gonzaga, but man, that region is weak. I like New Mexico out of it personally, but wouldn't be surprised if the Zags make it -- which makes my fingers hurt as I type it. Between that and Duke being completely overlooked and forgotten, it pains me to say these teams might actually sneak up and not underachieve for once.

                      That region is awful, my family is going to be in Cali and were thinking about getting tickets to the sweet sixteen or elite 8 at the staples center, but if ND isn't still playing, there's not really a game I want to see there. I honestly filled out my first bracket and have fukkin La Salle getting to the elite 8, that's how weak it is.

                      Duke/Louisville/Mich St will win the tourney over Indiana/Miami or possibly Georgetown.

                            Rest of the field easily. Wouldn't be surprised if 2 of the 1 seeds didn't even reach the sweet 16 and 0 of them reach the final 4

                                    I don't think Gonzaga or Kansas will make it to the final four. I honestly think it is Louisville's to lose. That full court press is just nasty. I believe Louisville really did have like a little more than 50 turnovers in one of the Big East tourney games...boss.

                                      The field easily. I doubt more than one 1 seed makes the FF even.

                                        A #1 seed has won 15 of the last 22 years... so with even odds, you would think #1s would be the good bet.

                                          I would definitely take the field.

                                          Louisville is the best team in the country but give me Syracuse, Georgetown, Florida, Duke, Ohio State, Michigan State, and Miami.

                                          Kansas and Gonzaga I don't even view as serious threats.

                                              Would be the field for me. There might not even be one No. 1 in the Final Four.

                                                  Kansas + Gonzaga have almost no chance. Shit I might take Miami vs. all the #1 seeds combined field should be -500

                                                    I would take the field. Top 5 teams got beat all year on the road this year. This will be a wild tournament.

                                                      On of the top 4 will find their way to the final imo.
