There's no bracket yet, but it is March, and it is getting close. I'll ride for UCLA until the day I die.

    Bruins don't take the lead until overtime. And win by 10.

    I like Love and Westbrook. The others not so much. UCLA tends to choke. I doubt they'll win it.

    UCLA JUST ROBBED CAL. ROBBED.

    Nevermind, Kevin Love, Josh Shipp, Russell Westbrook & Darren Collison > Cardinal. Stanfoo must deal.

  • Let's! Go! Red!

    In the last 30 years only 3 teams who reside in the Pacific Time Zone have won it all.


  • waxjunkywaxjunky 1,850 Posts
    11 of them being UCLA. Today they cost me the $100 I won last week, though.

    Bruins have only won it all once in the last 30 years.

    I don't think they will do it this year either.

    I'll be rooting for: Georgetown

    The Team I think has the best chance to win it all: Kansas

    Dark Horse: Wisconsin

    Will go further than you think: Butler

    Most Overrated: Memphis State

    Bubble Team that can win it all: Arizona

    Best big man in Tourney: Roy Hibbert

    Best Guard in Tourney: Chris Douglas-Roberts

    I bet for the Bruins. They beat Stanford by 3, but I needed them to win by 3.5....

    Is anyone setting up another yahoo pool for this? I have lots of uneducated guesses to share with the board.

    yo, not to ruin the mood, but why are non-basketball headz all of a sudden excited about basketball around this time? It's like the World Cup or something. Every year, dudes and girls that ordinarily do not watch basketball, come out of the woodwork on some, "DID YOU DO YOUR BRACKETS?"

    The most confusing part are the kids that know maybe ONE team (perhaps their alma mater) out of the whole 65 team tournament, and the rest I assume are arbitrary picks??!

    Anyone watch the Pitt/Louisville game? That game was

    Possible Sweet 16 matchup between Memphis and Pitt.

    I hear Kansas got superstars at every position. I know they play D as well. Are they a lock to win it all?

  • yuichiyuichi Urban sprawl 11,331 Posts
    Collison of UCLA is more of a combo guard. He doesn't really make his teammates better. UCLA may not even make it to the Elite 8. They've had good games and bad ones.

    I thought OJ Mayo was gonna be the truth. Local papers are ripping him. He only gets sympathy from nationally distributed basketball zines. USC is inconsistent.

    Pac 10 is loaded with great talent, but they seem less physical than say the Big East. In crunch time, when teams lock down on defense, usually the softer teams sink.
