      WichSt has great chance of E8, Valpy could win a couple same as SF Austin. In the East Region, I think a #5,6 or 7 win it. Watch 'Nova breeze right thru because nobody is picking them at all. If BYU gets in I think they can win a few games.

        Name a higher seeded team that you like to advance to the Elite 8 or Final 4.

        I think Northern Iowa has a deep run. I know they were ranked 11th by year end but they are a mid-major and still only a 5 seed (20th ranked by the committee).
        I just dont like that their offense is so focused around seth tuttle a forward. It is was a point or shooting guard I think it would be okay but if they clog him up it could really present problems

            You're right they do rely on him heavily at times but when their offense is humming it's because their ball movement is very good.

                pretty cool guys. i might bet on them just for that reason bc i know they will try to cover the spread even if they dont win bc they know how it is to be a gambler.

                these guys were drunk as hell playing roulette with me.
                "cool story bro", but they coach like Mike D'Antoni proteges.
                Utah will have absolutely no problem getting anything they want.
                SFA doesn't have the strategy or the talent to compete with Utah.

                          what would be the spread in that match up? Thinking if betting em -110 to advance to sweet sixteen makes sense or not....

                            Smaller than many may think. Maybe Kansas -3.5

                                  Not sure how you can lay 16 on UVA and feel confident about it. Belmont has shooters, excellent coach and very fundamentally sound. Other two should be good.

                                        Not sure about that man. Davidson is similar to Belmont and they were up 7 @ UVA with 5:00 to go....I can't lay that chalk on UVA who struggles to score and slows the game down. The more Belmont hangs around the more difficult it's gonna be to get rid of them

                                            There are two weak parts of the bracket where I can see a high seed getting to the sweet 16. I feel like either Buffalo or Valpo wins their first round games, maybe both. Then I think one of those teams can win again, doubt WVU or Maryland makes the sweet 16. The other weak section of the bracket is in the South. I think either SFA or Eastern Wash will pull the upset, maybe both. I don't see GTown or Utah making the sweet 16, think we see a cinderella make it to the sweet 16 in that section.

                                                the team is already starting its cinderella run. They were 1.1 seconds away from not even being here as Dartmouth needed a prayer to beat Yale to force the one-game playoff for the NCAA bid. UNC on upset alert.

                                                  I went to Maryland and still am pretty nervous about Valpo. Definitely can see them making a good run up until Kentucky.

                                                          I am only talking about winning the first game, Georgetown is not a legitimate 4-seed and they play poor three-point defense.
