I'll personally give you a million dollars if Baylor or WVU win it all

I also like Kansas, Oregon, Butler, Minnesota

Teams I give little to no chance include teams that can't score enough like WVU, Baylor, UVA, Teams that can't defend well enough like UCLA and teams who seem soft like UNC and Kentucky

After all, the ACC is the only "real" conference isn't it?

Is that the "shocker gang sign" from a cheerleader?

Some surprising teams not on my list (yes this seems odd after I did a joke with my 5th pick but this is my post so shut up)

- Villanova, in this day and age it's almost impossible to repeat
- Gonzaga, Arizona, Baylor, UCLA and Oregon haven't advanced past the elite 8 in a long time and none of their coaches ever have.
- West Virginia could always go on a run, but there's also a chance they lose in the first round again.

Duke and Kansas are right there as well. I would be stunned if someone other than those seven wins it.

Finally Gonzaga gets some love. Oregon is amazing at home but beatable on the road, or if Brooks has an off day, Cinci and SMU are also contenders imo

Gonzaga doesn't even crack my top 15. Some nice early season wins but the win over Zona case while the Cats were shorthanded and the win over ISU was a game the Clones should've won. Both those teams are better now. I'm just not sure Gonzaga is, maybe I'm wrong but playing in the WCC jist cannot pr er pare you for March. Clearly a lot if this is matchups so anything is possible but I don't see it. I actually like SMU more than the Zags come tourney time if we are going mid major final 4 teams
