I'll classify a run as S16 or better . Who do you see from each league as a surprise team come March ?

UCF is the Dark horse and the UCFavorite to be the Cinderella of the tourney.

Let’s see if they can be the Cinderella of Dayton first

I'd have to wait to see how the bracket looks to give my answer, because the seed will mater IMO.

The #1 and #2 lines are relatively strong this year, so I think the 7-10 seeds will be fodder this year. I think a team who gets in that 11-14 seed line can cause some damage and win 2 games.

But you know these predictions go.

But if Villanova can stay on the 6 line, then why not Villanova. :clap:

Do you think being a 12th seed is better than an 11th or 10th? Some UCFans also want us to go to Dayton just so we can rack up the wins.

#UCFacts

For game two, a 12th seed is much better.

If you're a 12th you'll open with a 5 and then get a 4.

If you're a 10th, you'll open with 7 and then get 2.
If you're an 11th, you'll open with a 6 and then get 3.

It's all about the seeding, as to how far a team can expect
to go.

Did you just admit that UCF is a mid major? Because a P5 Cinderella doesn't exist. :pound:

UCF is one of the youngest programs in the nation. Our Rise to Dominance is just starting in UCFootball and our Rise to Prominence has really started getting rolling in basketball.

Let's not pretend that every team in the High Major conferences has a chance to win a National Championship, like UCF does.

Y'all just better hope our Cocks don't slide in at the last minute, because very few can lick us in March.

What pissed me off the most is I watched all year and I knew how strong and consistent the Top 12 or so teams were, yet I still bet on shitty inconsistent teams to pull of the upsets.

If I had bet favorites, I'd have done real well last weekend.

Listen, as long as Duke can get all the calls I don't see any reason why they can't win the Tournament Championship!
