NCAA Part 2

So…how did my picks for March Madness go?

Great… for someone who doesn’t really follow college basketball until 2 weeks before the tourney, doesn’t know the teams and doesn’t care if he finishes in last place of the office pool.  Beyond that – I am awesome!

Still 11 of the Sweet Sixteen is enough to keep me in contention.  Go Spartans!  Go Pitt!

The President has picked UNC to beat Louisville in the title game.

For the sake of my bracket, I hope he is not correct.

NCAA March Madness Picks

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

Rather than pick everyone, let me tell you some upsets…

I like Utah State to win twice, Maryland once.

I like Wisconsin and Portland St to face of in the 2nd game. I also like VCU and  Minnesota to win. And while I am picking Binghamton to win (to show my allegiance to Mr. Tony), I also am sick of Duke (or rather Duke’s fans) so that’s reason enough for me to have some fun with the bracket.

Western Kentucky, Temple and Michigan all look good to me too.

Final Four : Mich St, Memphis, Pitt and Carolina.  I’ll take Pitt to beat the Spartans for the title.
