So, everyone is picking 1 and 2 seeds basically? Have you not watched a tournament in a while?

There are a ton of teams that could get there but if I pick the teams that I think are the best I have a better chance of maybe getting one or two right. I could pick Baylor, Boston College, Iowa State and Gonzaga but I don't think the odds of me getting some right would be as good even though they all could be good enough to get to the Final Four after entering the tournament outside of the top ten.

And none of the others matter.

I think it's pretty safe to say there will be 1 team in the 4-6 seed range.

VCU, UCLA, Marquette, Oregon, Memphis....somethin.

I agree. I was just saying if I pick the four best I probably have a better chance of getting one or two right. If I try to guess which of the 4-6 seeds will be in the final four I have very small odds of getting it right, and a smaller chance of getting the others right.

The point of the thread is to guess the most teams correctly. Higher odds of a 1-2 seed making it than taking a guess on a 4-6 seed. We all know there'll be one "surprise" team.

Mich State, Creighton, Syracuse and Baylor. Boom

 

[TrollyMcTroller]

17 people listed four picks in this thread (sorry, douggie, I'm not counting yours)

Here's the results...

Kentucky: 12
Duke: 10
Michigan State: 9
Kansas: 8
Louisville: 7
Arizona: 6
Syracuse: 3
Oklahoma State: 2
Ohio State: 2
Michigan: 2
Baylor: 2
Arizona State: 1
Memphis: 1
Georgetown: 1
VCU: 1
Creighton: 1

I don't think anyone has more than 2 possible teams correct (depending on outcome of today's games. two out four before the brackets come out (let alone before the season really starts) is pretty good if you ask me. The funny thing is, no votes for either of the two teams that have already punched their tickets.

Irony? if UK and MSU make the Final Four they would be the two frontrunners at the beginning of the season (expected 1 or 2 seeds) but would make it as lower seeded teams as Kramer (kinda) predicted.

I am pretty happy with my picks of AZ, MSU, UK and 'Ville. 3 Elite Eights at worst, and a Sweet Sixteen who played one my other picks.

 

[Shanemansj13]

It pretty crazy before the elite 8 games I had 7 of the 8 teams and all Final 4 picks. Now I have 1 Final Four pick.

Yikes; Florida, Wisconsin, and UConn not on the list.

I love it when we get underrated!

Looks like everyone got underrated........What we need now is for Wisconsin to see us in the final and fix both early losses. Actually, I like Kentucky and it wouldn't break my heart to see them in the final 4.

I kinda would like UK to beat Michigan!

 

[Arizona_Sting]

I bought the OKST hype at the beginning of the year

 

[ktg8trgrl]

So who saw this coming? Florida, Kentucky, UConn and Wisconsin? Well I guess this just shows you that maybe the B1G isn't the best basketballl conference after all
