Villanova, North Carolina, Gonzaga, and LSU.

You and I share 1 out of 4 picks to get to the Final Four. LSU will be dominated by Duke, Villanova has a clear weakness and that is the fact that they start 4 gaurds and no center. UNC's starting lineup is entirely made of freshmen, and the only pick you and I share is Gonzaga. 1 name:Adam Morrison. 1 purpose: Hit every shot he takes. ANd he does.

Good question. Of those three, I would pick Villanova over Georgetown as a SLIGHTLY greater upset than NC State over Houston...\n\nThe reason for my pick is that Georgetown had lost by 1 pt to North Carolina in Patrick Ewing's freshman year 1982. They proceeded to win the National Championship in 1984, so they were the defending NCAA Champions going into the Villanova game.\n\nHouston, on the other hand, was just starting to come into their own in 1983, the year they lost to N C State on a last second dunk by Lorenzo Charles of an air ball shot. Houston then lost to Georgetown the next year, 1984, also in the NCAA finals.  One of the reasons this was a huge upset, especially looking back on it, is the fact that the Houston Cougars at that time had two players who would eventually be named among the NBA's 50 greatest players ever in 1996, Akeem (as he was known then) Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler.\n\nTexas Western's win over Kentucky was not the upset that a lot of sportwriters today try to make it. Today they try to make it seem as though no one in the country thought blacks could compete with whites in basketball... which, even back then, was absurd... \n\nA decade before the game that supposedly changed basketball, the undefeated 1955-56 University of San Francisco team won the NCAA championship with a team that played four blacks — Bill Russell, K.C. Jones, Hal Perry and Gene Brown. \n\nIn 1958 the coaches' All-American team was all black — Wilt Chamberlain of Kansas, Oscar Robertson of Cincinnati, Bob Boozer of Kansas State, Guy Rodgers of Temple and Elgin Baylor of Seattle. \n\nIn 1962, the University of Cincinnati started four black players when it won the NCAA championship, and Loyola University of Chicago started four when it won in 1963."\n\n Frank Deford, a distinguished writer, covered the Texas Western-Kentucky game for Sports Illustrated and did not mention the fact of five black starters. Neither did The New York Times nor The Washington Post. Already the ascendancy of blacks in basketball was such that the four best players in the NBA were Chamberlain, Russell, Baylor and Robertson.\n\nKentucky was the top ranked team going into that finals game in 1966, but Texas Western was ranked third and had lost only one game, so it really didn't constitue a major upset.\n\nIf we consider the relative disparity in rankings of Houston and NC State, or Georgetown and Villanova, I would consider those to be much bigger upsets than T.Western over UK.

I do think 8.  W. Virgina, UCONN, Nova, Georgetown, Pitt, Seton Hall, Marquette, and Syracuse.  I think they're all valid teams.  The first five on that list are locks.

Let me tell you a story. Two seasons ago I picked Xavier to beat Louiville in the 1st round even though they were underdogs. Everyone thought I was crazy. What shocked them more was the fact that I picked them to win the 2nd round, and the sweet 16 round. I was right. Now Gonzaga is a different team. They have the player who can hit almost every shot he takes. And that is all they need to win believe it or not. Xavier winning the big 10 was good, but have they faced Adam Morrison before this season? No.

I like Duke.  Even after the embarassment they suffered at the hands of UNC, they came back and won the ACC tournament, snatching the number one overall bid.  There toughest game before the final four is going to be Texas in the elite 8, if my bracket turns out right, which is a bit of a scare but I think they'll handle it.  Then I got them beating the Zags before facing Villanova in the championship, the one game on my bracket I truely am questioning right now.  I think Duke beats Nova by one.
