Tourney Talk

My Final 4 is:
Kansas (weak draw)
Gonzaga (everyone says they are good and I doubt the Pac 12)
Nova (Duke be trippin)
Kentucky (always bet on the Cats)

KY wins #9.

That's what my bracket says anyway, my head doesn't have us getting by UNC and UCLA. I think we might struggle with WS....

There is a part of my that would LOVE to play Dook in the finals to see what Brisco does to Grayson Allen after he trips one of our guys....

I would love having Arizona's draw. If Miller can't make a FF this year I would hope the talk of him being Cal's successor would go away forever.

Saw teams in NIT that didn't really care if they were playing or not. Alabama and California didn't have any energy and both lost.

In my opinion, they should do away with the NIT. It must be making money is why they continue having it.

I just filled out my WCN Yahoo bracket. I had too much chalk so its probably an awful bracket. I have Arizona,Duke,UNC and Kansas in the Final Four with UNC winning it all. Some of my upset picks are UNCW,Xavier and Florida Gulf Coast. I also picked Cincinnati to upset UCLA. I have a feeling UK won't be playing the Bruins in sweet 16. I would not bet the mortgage on that bracket.

I've got Nova, Gonzaga, Purdue and Kentucky in the Final Four. Hoping Caleb Swanigan will do what Bam couldn't and feast on the Kansas front court.

UK beats Nova in the championship.

I have a question for those who are picking the Cats to win it all. Do you all really think we have that good of a chance, or are these heart picks?

I picked Kentucky on a couple and picked other teams on a couple.

I don't think it's so crazy to think UK could win it. Isn't like this team is a bubble team or even some sort of 8 seed that struggled all year. This is the #5 team in the nation. It's 29-5. I would probably put it below Carolina, Kanas, and Villanova, but outside those three teams nobody really jumps out. And even those teams are beatable and don't strike a whole lot of fear.

I like this team's odds better than I did the '97 or '98 teams' and much more than 2011 or 2014.

They appear to be putting it all together at the right time. When that happens with a team as talented as ours, you suddenly have a legitimate contender.

Heart pick.

I don't think there is anyone we can't beat. I think our consistency and poise is suspect to actually do it for 6 games in a row against stout competition.

This pretty much sums it up.

I never pick against the CATS

I have Villanova, UNC, UL & Notre Dame. Rematch of last year in the final with UNC winning. I think the winner of the UK-UNC game is the national champion. Don't like the revenge factor for UNC. I took UNC but would love to be wrong.

I think we can get to the elite 8 but I don't know if we can get to the final four. We've made strides in the half court offense over the past couple of weeks but I'm still concerned about the consistency and the defense.
