Yeah some of the seedings seemed kinda screwy to me too.I have all the 2 seeds in the Final 4 with Wisconsin over Memphis in the title game.I have Duke going out in the 2nd round. So much pain there.....
Duke deserves a spot. Not Arkansas.Memphis doesn't deserve a 2 to me. Playing in C-USA means nothing and they're only 1-2 against the top 25 they did play. They should be a 3 seed at best.I have Winthrop in the Elite 8. Write it down. Most talented mid-major. Butler is so overrated, early season run over teams that really aren't worth mentioning so they stay in the top 25 plus they stumbled in their own crap conference.
Oregon is going to the Final Four. If they play like they did in the Pac-10 tourny, they are unstoppable.

i know they are stoppable, Im a CAL fan, I know they are stoppable, but, IF they play like they did in the Pac-10 Tourny, THEN they are unstoppable.
Texas is gonna win it...Durant is gonna destroy all competition...there is no one who can guard him in college...though im sad to see UNC and Texas in the same bracket...
Texas is not going to win it. Almost every single person I know and heard said Kansas would make the Final Four last year because of their amazing youth. Well, like I said last year, youth in college is not good. You need experience. Texas will not make it far. Maybe a couple of rounds. Last year I was right about Kansas, and I will be right about Texas this year. They won't make it to the Elite 8.

They could easily be a Syracuse or be a Kansas/UNC (last year) Durant always gets the team to a hot start and then they seem to get too comfortable and lose it. Happened twice when they played Kansas.I don't buy that Oregon is that good. Have 1 off shooting night and it's done for them. I just don't buy that having pure guard play/outside shooting will be enough in the tourney. Lacking big men will hurt them imo.

Syracuse won it all with Melo, McNamera (I think), and Hakim Warrick.Youth doesn't necessarily mean you're done. Chemistry counts a lot more. Kansas had too many "I want to be the star" last year, same with UNC and UCONN. Now UNC and Kansas of those teams are playing like a true team.

My final 4: Florida-UCLA, Texas-Ohio StateOSU beats Florida 80-77 in the title game. And Grossman, about that Self choke job, it'll be in the 2nd round vs Kentucky. Unless Kansas makes history and becomes the first team to lose to a 16 seed, which would make Bill Self the all-time choker. Furthermore, it would be to the play-in game winnerGO BUCKEYES!!

My final 4:FloridaUCLAGeorgetownOhio StateFlorida vs. Georgetown FinalsFlorida RepeatsSuprise Team: Louisville in Elite 8
I'm going homer and picking Maryland all the way.3 starting seniors has got to count for something. Plus if Mike Jones is on (has his best games against good teams), it's hard to beat us.Most likely won't happen though.Rest of the Final 4 is G'Town, UCLA, and Ohio St.
