    Unbelievable that Duke gets the last #2 seed. Whoever makes it out of the Midwest will surely be battle tested.

    The south is the toughest bracket imo.

    Michigan is a 4 in the South, they are equal to Michigan St who is a 3 in the Midwest.
    Florida is the best 3 seed in the tournament.
    VCU is about equal to St Louis, VCU is a 5 seed in South.
    Georgetown is better than Duke.

    VCU is about equal to Saint Louis? Did you miss the two beatings that St Louis gave them? They dominated those games, no matter what the final score said. Georgetown better than Duke?

    Do you really think Duke is better than Georgetown?
    They are close, but to think Duke is way better than Georgetown is a joke.

    Duke is overrated just like every year. They are probably not even better than they were last season.

    Georgetown has 1 loss to a non-tourney team (back in January). Duke has 3 (all recent losses)
    Duke had some good wins to start the season, but other teams have improved while Duke does/has not.

    Duke is the most overrated program in the country and people are buying into the coach K hype.

    The South is the toughest region.

    Look at the odds:
    Top 5 seeds in each region

    South:
    3rd fav
    6th fav
    9th fav (tie)
    10th fav
    22nd fav

    Midwest:
    1st fav
    5th fav
    9th fav (tie)
    14th fav
    27th fav

    Plus throw in UNC who is the 17th favorite.

    I really don't even think this is debatable. South is the toughest region.

    Yeah, I can see how they are always overrated. I mean 4 Championships, 8 Championship games and 11, or is it 12 Final Fours??? You know I lost count.... Yep, I'm sure most programs would love to be as overrated as Duke and Coach K.

    Easiest side ever.

    Only msu/duke and osu left on the whole left side vs. Kansas/Michigan/Florida/Indiana/Miami/etc.
