What upset do you like?

Any upsets you can think of?

I think Xavier over ND is possible

I like WVU over Zags

Maybe IU goes down?

I have a feeling Georgetown craps out in the first round again. They always seem to struggle in the first round.

True. When you play that style of slow and controlled it can lead to close games.

St Bonaventure might give FSU a tough time. If it's a close game that whole team shoots free throws really well.

A second round UConn / UK game could interesting also.

It's hard to look at the 7 vs 10 game as an upset. It's basically just like the 8-9 games. I would think the real upsets are top 4 seeds and we know #1's aren't going down and historically likely no #2's.

So the 3 seed and 4 seed games I like Belmont, Montana, NMSU

I like Indiana to go down in round 1 and I think Ohio will give Michigan a good game, but I am not sure if I will leap to say they'll upset them.

NC St is the easiest one. I don't think Temple will win a game against either playin team.

I like UC over FSU in the second round, then UC over OSU in the sweet 16, followed by UC over Syracuse in the Elite 8, UC over UNC or Kansas in the Final 4 and UC over MSU or UK in the Championship game.

Those are all the upsets that I like

**we got a real tough road to the final 4, hopefully our bracket will be full of upsets and we'll get the easiest road possible

Wouldn't be shocked to see IU lose.
Belmont isn't going to beat Georgetown.
Georgetown is entirely too long and stingy on defense.
Unless they have the flu, I just don't see that happening this year.
Xavier... I think they'll get killed on the inside.
I think Louisville may lose to Davidson.
