Va Tech and Greenie have Illinois in the 1st round, I feel bad for Greenie, since when is Illinois an 11 seed, probably only this yr.If everything goes accordingly Memphis will play the Ville in the sweet 16, a matchup for old time sake. & UCLA will play PITT in the sweet 16, Ben Howland coaching his old boys.What are your 5-12 upset of the bracket? Is there a George Mason of this yrs tourney? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are lucky enough to survive that one, Oregon awaits with a huge home court advantage.Also Pitt getting Wright St. wasn't good for the Big East either. Tough opening round game and then the Dookies in round two if they survive VCU.Should be a great tourney though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody in that half really impresses me. I don't think Pitt has the guardplay to go deep. I have them losing to UCLA in the Sweet Sixteen, but I could see them losing to Wright State, VCU, or Duke. Georgetown is in my title game, losing to UF. I think Marquette will get beat by MSU in the first round. 'Nova should be too physical for Kentucky. All bias aside( ), a UK team that has lacked toughness all year will get blown out by a truly tough team. Louisville will probably scrape by Stanford, then lose to a very good Texas A&M.
