    What is your biggest tournament bracket reach?
    Seems tougher to make reaches this year. Want to put Ohio State n the Elite 8 and put Okla State or UK in the sweet 16...can't pull the trigger.

      Kentucky Losing to Florida for the 4th time this season in the championship.
      That's about the only big one. Other than that, all seems to be about normal minus an upset here or there. I clicked on Yahoo to auto fill to popular choices and only had a change a few teams around. So I'm going with the popular teams then only big thing is Kentucky. Just hope they get out of 1st round, then I think they match up well with everyone else.

          I dislike everything scarlet and gray, but I don't think it's a reach to get Ohio State in the final eight. You want me to pick them to lose in their second game to Syracuse? Can't do that; the Orange hasn't looked decent in, what, six weeks?

                          It's the big dance man....everyone will have their opinions. I know Michigan State and Arizona very well, and I don't see either making the Sweet 16.

                                  Put money a while back on SDSU and New Mexico to win the national championship at +5000 and +7500...now all of a sudden they're sexy picks and it has me excited (granted I think neither will)

                                  Also have Iowa st in the national championship. Meshing well at the right time

                                        BIGDAY beat me to it! NoDak St AND Tennessee to Sweet 16. (I'd settle for Iowa since they and Tennessee are an entry, but I like Tennessee better).
