    The NCAA BRACKET TOURNAMENT DISCUSSION Thread!
    This thread is for everyone to share their thoughts about the seedings, matchups, cindarella, overrated, sleeping dog teams, etc

    The seedings will be announced later today and then we can all have a ball with it.

    You can use this thread to talk about your personal bracket pools, your regular wagers against the spread/total, or just talk March Madness Baby!

    Enjoy the big !!!

    The most intriguing 1st round topic for me will be with the 8/9 and 7/10 matchups!

    Those are always the biggest swing matchups in our bracket pools! (especially when points are seed weighted!)

        MadCapper, just want to say you start a lot of very good threads here that generate good discussion and picks.

        That being said this is my favorite time of year. Go Mizzou, shit they aren't going to make it. So I guess I am rooting for Tennessee or Texas.

          WTF? How does Tennessee land in the same bracket as UNC? If Im Bruce Pearl Im pretty ticked right now.

          Oh, and thanks for pairing up 2 mid-majors in the first round again, Butler/South Alabama.

            Meh I didn't think South Alabama deserved in, or St. Joes. Congrats to those teams anyway though.

              I too hate them pairing up two mid-majors. Both of these teams are tough and I would like to see South Alabama and Butler each take down some of the big schools.

                          I'd have given Austin Peay a chance against a middle-seed -- a team that wasn't Texas in Houston-- but come on!

                            I love Coppin St to win their game. It will be a big bet for me once the numbers are out. Huge!

                                          Vanderbilt #4 and Baylor in the tournament has to be the biggest joke I ever seen. They could have put Akron, Cleveland St, VCU or Illinois St. But Baylor?

                                                        I know Arizona is talented as hell and can beat anyone on any given day...but if you can't finish .500 in your conference you shouldn't get in barring a conference tourney championship.

                                                        Yes they had injuries, but so did Pitt, Kentucky, and a number of other teams.

                                                            I dont pay enough attention to stuff like this but how did University of Texas at Arlington get in? The only good basketball to come out of that school was the wheelchair basketball team....they dont make it out of the first round, of course they are playing memphis so that is a given...

                                                                the only way they got in is i think they won their conference tournament. So its an automatic bid i think.

                                                                    -- East region is absolutely loaded... UNC, Tenn, Lville... wow.

                                                                    -- Arky can beat UNC.

                                                                    -- ND (-2?) over Wazzou in round 2 could be the GOY.

                                                                    -- Vandy getting a 4 seed is a joke.

                                                                    -- Love Kent State over UNLV (sorry looker) in the 8/9.

                                                                    -- SC/K-State winner beats Wisky in round 2.

                                                                    -- Kansas and Gtwon have a relatively easy path to the regional final.

                                                                    -- Zona/WVU winner beats Duke.
