yes. I know that my bracket is the absolute best. I would tell you but i cant fit it into this answer. Let me just tell my final four: LSU, Kansas, UCONN, Boston College. Don't let anyone persuade you otherwise. I'm right. UCONN over LSU in the title game, 77-70.

Nope. I had UNC, WVU, Villanova, and Xavier for my final four. On some sports show I was watching yesterday they said "Show me a perfect bracket and I'll show you a million dollars". I think it was impossible to pick this years final four. I think I'm just going to put all the names in a hat and pick out four for next year I'd probably have better luck. I think George Mason will win it all this year. They want it more and are willing to work harder than any other team to get it. I am happy Duke got beat. DUKE SUCKS!!!

UConn is the most talented team, Duke is always in the mix.....hard not to pick one of those two....but I'm going to pick Ohio State....they seem to be on a tear of late...and they are very well balanced with bench depth

Florida looks like the hottest team in the tournament at this point.  They have been destroying their opponents by the greatest margin the tourney, though they competition was not the hardest.  They also have a solid coach in Billy Donovan who has some recent championship game experience (2000).  If Noah and the rest can keep up the unselfish play, I think Florida will be the NCAA Champions come April.

UCONN, or Gonzaga!!!!!!  My Picks.......

Based on just pure talent, the Tarheels gotta rank in the top 10 in the nation just on talent alone.  As far as March Madness is concerned, anything can happen but I would anticipate that UNC will make it to at least the regional final if not farther.  But it's tough to say since March is far away.

here's my rankings as of right now..\n\n1 ohio state\n2 michigan\n3 rutgers (this team is for real, they deserve a shot at OSU/Mich winner!)\n4 arkansas (dominating win over Tenn)\n5 florida (should have lost to SC, but squeeked out a win)\n6 southern cal (are beating Oregon so far at the half)\n7 wake (wow, what a beating on FL St. tonight!)\n8 wisconsin (nice win on the road today)\n9 louisville\n10 w. virginia (can make a BCS game if beat Rutgers on dec 2)\n11 notre dame (they keep winning but over weak opponents)\n12 boise (good enough to be in a BCS conference)\n\nnot dead yet:\n\ntexas, oklahoma - who will win Big 12???\n\nga tech - will likely play Wake for ACC title\n\nauburn, LSU, - can they catch Ark and get to SEC title game?\n\ncal - will have to beat southern cal to make a BCS game\n\nstill lots of big games to be played:\n\nohio state v michigan (essentially the Big 10 title game)\ncal vs southern cal\nnotre dame vs southern cal\nrutgers vs west virginia (essentially the Big East title game)\nSEC title, Big 12 title, ACC title games

I could see Ohio State going all the way and i wouldn't be surprised to see UCONN do it either.  They're big and they got a few good shooters.  I really don't think Villanova will make it very far because they are just too small.  Alot of people are saying Syracuse but all they have is momentum and Jerry McNamara. One player and a few good wins is just not going to carry a team that far in the NCAA tournament.

The first two guys have essentially covered it (and yes, there are actually 65 for the men's bracket now), but this year's tournament could have a little bit more meaning for the mid-majors. I don't think it'll happen, but *six* Missouri Valley teams have been talked about as potential NCAA teams as well as *three* from.....hold on to your hats.....the Colonial Athletic Conference. Here's a basic reason why:\n\nMissouri Valley - Conf - All\nWichita St.  14-4 24-8 \nMissouri State  12-6 20-8  \nSouthern Ill.  12-6 22-10 (won conference tourney) \nCreighton  12-6 19-9  \nNorthern Iowa  11-7 23-9  \nBradley  11-7 20-10  \n\nColonial Athletic - Conf - All  \nN.C. Wilmington  15-3 25-7 (won conference tourney)\nGeorge Mason  15-3 23-7  \nHofstra  14-4 24-6 \n\nAll those teams have pretty good records, the MVC has always been a solid conference, and George Mason was ranked in the Top 25 for a week or so. Link 1 shows the rest of the teams receiving votes from the USA Today/ESPN poll, while link 2 shows the same from the AP poll.\n\nUSA Today/ESPN: >>Others Receiving Votes: Bucknell 40, Michigan St. 36, Marquette 21, Arkansas 10, San Diego St. 9, Air Force 8, Southern Ill. 7, Wisconsin 7, N.C. Wilmington 6, Wichita St. 6, George Mason 6, Hofstra 4, Alabama 2, Colorado 2, Murray St. 2, Texas A&M 2, West. Kentucky 1, Florida St. 1<<\n\nAP: >>Others Receiving Votes: Arkansas 109, Bucknell 83, Michigan St. 67, Marquette 58, Southern Ill. 33, Texas A&M 17, San Diego St. 10, Florida St. 9, Wichita St. 8, California 7, Hofstra 7, Air Force 5, Wisconsin 4, George Mason 3, West. Kentucky 2, Cincinnati 1, Missouri State 1<<\n\nThere will be a tremendous and justified uproar if a lot of the mid-major teams listed here are snubbed, but I doubt the MVC gets more than 4 teams (meaning, "Sorry Bradley/Creighton.") The selection committee has too often favored the big conferences (ACC, SEC, Big 10, Big East, and also the Big 12 and Pac 10) in past years, though I have no problem with this season's Big East sending 8-9 teams.

I have Villanova in winning in my bracket.  The last two games have been really close.  I see them either winning or losing by 1 or 2 points...hopefully winning.

They might be #2 behind the OHIO STATE BUCKEYES in the big ten conference. I see them making the tournament again, but I don't see them going deep in the big dance...

Gonzaga deserved no less than a 2-seed - they're the #4-ranked team in the country, for crying out loud, and teams ranked ahead of them lost this week!\n\nTennessee should have been a 4-seed *tops*!\n\nAnd Boston College should've been a 2-seed or maybe a 3-seed.\n\nThe Selection Committee needs an overall formula for determining seeds because it's obvious that RPI and strength of schedule have no correlation to national ranking.
