Fun year for college hoops. No true powerhouse but 8-10 legit teams that can win it all.
I'll throw out Gonzaga as my title pick. Their road seems easiest with Arizona the biggest obstacle into the final 4, and they already beat Arizona (though Arizona is now healthier).
North Carolina, Kentucky and UCLA all in the same region? Brutal. Too hard to predict last man standing in that powerhouse so I will pass on all of them
Villanova is the reigning champ and is strong again, and has Duke as the 2. Both obviously capable of winning it all.
Kansas is loaded but their conference is weaker and this tourney will prove it. Louisville has tremendous defense and a bunch of athletes, but can't score enough to win 6 games in a row.
Gonzaga to beat Kentucky in the final is my pick.

For unknown reasons I have Arizona as the champ in both bracket pools I enter.
I also did an auction where you purchase teams this year. All the money goes in the pot and the winners from each round get a % of the pot. For example, Gonzaga went for $700. I mainly have smaller value teams. West Virgina is my best team and really the main team that could actually go out and win 3-4 games (unless Tom Izzo Magic happens again for Mich St.).
In any case, it is a glorious weekday sporting event.

Fuck you Nova and Miami! I was 21-7 when I went to bed, now I'm 23-11.

Am I the only one that thinks Arkansas got screwed?

I've never understood the whole college sports in America thing. But, I'm a Tobacco Road guy, so Duke losing was tough. Go Tar Heels!
Fun racist American history fact:
Tar Heel is a nickname applied to the U.S. state of North Carolina and its inhabitants. ... One such legend claims it to be a nickname given during the U.S. Civil War, because of the state's importance on the Confederate side, and the fact that the troops "stuck to their ranks like they had tar on their heels"
I hope they face the Cocks!
