Anyone else watching this? I recently got ESPN America so I will be watching the tournament properly for the first time. With Kansas out I reckon Kentucky will go all the way, their young talents such as John Wall, Eric Bledsoe and Demarcus Cousins are unbelievable. The only team I think that will give them a run for their money are West Virginia, who were very impressive in their conference tournament. Anyone else have any thoughts?
Here's a link to the bracket:NCAA Tournament Bracket
 
I watched Kansas State beat BYU last night & I gotta say they looked pretty good, If Pullen can stay out of foul trouble & keep knocking down those three's KSU could upset Syracuse in the west. I have to agree with you about Kentucky, they defs have the strongest team & the east should be contested by them and WVU.
 
Being an Ohio native I'm rooting for Ohio State to make it to the final four, which looks to be a lot easier now that Georgetown and Kansas were both knocked out. This year the tournament has been a lot more exciting than the last couple years; they're finally putting the Madness back in March Madness.

Agreed. What do think the biggest shock has been so far? Iowa over Kansas, Cornell over Wisconsin, St Mary's over 'Nova or Washington over New Mexico? Although Iowa beating KU was a shock, I'd have to say for me the biggest upset was St Mary's over 'Nova, don't think many people gave the Gaels a shot in that one.

To me it's got to be Iowa over Kansas, almost half of everybody was picking Kansas to win it all. Wisconsin to me never seemed like a great team so I'm not too surprised to see them go down. I never watched New Mexico this year so I never really took them that seriously. 'Nova played so poorly down the stretch (plus almost losing to Robert Morris) that it wasn't a huge shock to see St Mary's take them out.

My bracket is totally busted. Now's the point in the tournament where I'm either rooting for Ohio State or rooting for the underdog. I'm seeing 4 9+ seeds in the sweet 16 so hopefully one of them will make it to the elite 8.
