Let the dancing begin. KU is one of the first teams out of the box with a 12:25 tip. Here's hoping they can take it post to post.
This is actually one of the few years where I have not seen a big number of big upset possibilities. Although I do have Pitt taking out Memphis and Texas taking out Pitt and then UCLA, to meet Kansas in the Championship. Yeah, I always pick Kansas, as anytime they lose I am in no mood to still seriously follow the tournament.
The biggest upset picks for me this year come out of the West. Where I picked Western Kentucky to win their first game as a 12, and Baylor to not only take out Purdue, but Xavier as well. I picked a couple 5's beating 4's, a couple 10's, and 3 nines. If I had to go higher than the 12 in WK it would likely be with either Boise St. over Louisville, or Georgia over Xavier, which would play nicely into my Baylor pick. Maybe Siena over Vandy, but I doubt it. Out of 15's and 16's, American is the only I could see putting a scare into Tenn.
Outside of that, my Final Fours usually look like a jigsaw puzzle, but this year Texas is the only team I have going that is not a 1 seed. I usually do good in these, and specifically in the early rounds. But after my performance last year, and even the prior 2, you may be better off getting my picks a reversing them.
