I don't think Creighton can defend well enough to beat UNC. It's very hard to out score UNC even though Doug McDermott is amazing.

Maybe if UNC is just off and Creighton is on fire, but that's just a horrible matchup for Creighton and plus I don't even know if they beat Alabama.

I think NC State has a reasonable shot to make the Sweet 16. I'm liking Murray State in the Sweet 16. If Gonzaga can get by West Virginia I think Gonzaga will give Ohio State plenty of fits considering their height and skill level.

I'm very, very intrigued by New Mexico vs Long Beach State. I was going to pick LBSU over their first round opponent but New Mexico is a good basketball team.

Mizzou scares the bejeesus out of me. Other than that, I'm quite happy with MSU's draw.

Cincinnati is going to have some work to do before, but I would love to see the possible OSU-Cincinnati match-up.

Re: Selection Sunday Thread

Yeaaah I'm not sure you want to overlook FSU given they have a bunch of experience, depth, and beaten UNC/Duke each twice.

If FSU plays the way they have as of late I like their bracket

Re: Selection Sunday Thread

First bracket I filled out, have a final four of:
Michigan State > Baylor
Kansas > Syracuse

Kansas > Michigan State in the title game.

Had Kentucky losing in the 2nd round to Iowa State and UNC losing to Kansas in the Elite 8. I think the biggest upset I had was Belmont > Georgetown.

Love our draw, SDSU then Georgetown/Belmont.

So happy to be back in the tournament! Almost had a heart attack, of course we would be the last team shown.

Re: Selection Sunday Thread

I'm feeling conspiracy all over my body.

Obama and ESPN helped pick out UNC's bracket.
Mateen Cleaves picked out Mich St's.
Digger picked out Uk's.

In all seriousness, I'm excited to have a shot at UCONN, Indiana, and possibly Duke. But, really.. it is kind of eye opening, maybe I'm bias, but that freaking south region is loaded.
