Thanks Benny

I am having a hell of a hard time picking these 7-10 games...I've got Florida for sure, as I think they are pretty underseeded as a 7...but ND/Xavier and Gonzaga/West Va are stumping me.

Vandy could do some damage this year.

They have a history of choking early in the dance.

I like Vandy to do some damage this year. At least Sweet 16. Definitely possibly further. A lot of the talking heads have FSU-VU in the Elite 8 and my initial glance at the bracket came to the same conclusion, but I'm not ready to lock anything in til I do more thinking. It's easy to say Vandy will beat Cuse, but Cuse just got knocked off by Cincy..they're gonna be pissed off like us and ready to whip some ass. I just dunno yet.

I thought really, really long and hard...but I just can't bring myself to have Vandy knock off Syracuse. I have the 'Dores run ending in the Sweet 16.

Cuse runs a lot of zone. Something tells me you don't zone John Jenkins

I only went homer once with 'Bama. Have us beating Creighton in a very close game and then losing to the Tar Heels.

I've got three 1's and a 4 in the Final Four. I went much more conservative by and large this year though. I think that the "best" teams are even better this year than they have been in the last few years.

I've got Vandy losing in the second round, just afraid to choose them to make a run when they've exited early the past couple years. I also have UVa in an upset in the first round vs Florida, which I'm not really sure about but decided to be riskier this year than normal.

Final Four looks like: UK vs Mizzou, Cuse vs Georgetown

Couple notes from my bracket...

-First off I think this year is going to be a lot more crazy than usual and even see some real early upsets.
-My biggest reach is Vandy making the final 4. I have them knocking off Syracuse and the winner of Ohio St/FSU (haven't decided yet)
-Bama is 1 and done and even that's a stretch for me.
-I really want to go Memphis over Michigan St but I don't have the guts yet.
