I think Long Beach might be a sleeper.

Did anyone catch celebration by VCU players when they found out they were playing Duke image

    Winthrop perhaps?

    Long Beach State, Xavier and possibly Vanderbuilt

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    If Xavier wins they would play Ohio State...anyone for Butler on a 1st round upset against Georgetown

    You must mean Belmont. And no, at least I hope not, I have Georgetown a final four team.

    Right Belmont...all the teams are looking alike right now. Will do my bracket tomorrow.

    Wouldn't surprise me if Texas A&M makes a run to the finals, but who really knows as its always a crap shoot.

    I'll tell you whose not going to be this year's Cinderella - Winthrop. They seem to have a lot of early buzz from their record (24-4) and the fact that they went undefeated in their conference this season - but they face a tough Notre Dame team they will not get past in round one.

    Looking for Jonny Gomes cards, especially Triple Threads and printing plates. Will consider all cards, though. Got something? Contact me at c_u_l_1@yahoo.com

    I don't usually go down to the #14 seed for a sleeper and potential Sweet 16 pick, but I'm going to say Oral Roberts here. I'm not sold on Washington State, and I think if they can trip up WSU (remember, they beat Kansas at Kansas, though it was very early), the Vandy/GW winner is very beatable.
  • baseballfanbaseballfan Posts: 5,456 ✭✭✭
    maybe these
    Holy Cross to the sweet 16
    Texas A & M to final 4
    Old Dominion to sweet 16

    If Texas A&M and Louisville both win, Texas A&M has to play Louisville on pretty much their home court (Kentucky). That's not right...

    Thank you for saying Cinderella and not "This Years George Mason". That drives me nucking futs. The reson GM was GM last year was because nobody predicted it, therefore you cant predict the next George Mason.


    My Cinderella (going to sweet 16) Winthrop.

    Probably not a Cinderella in the truest sense, but we (Kentucky) do have to upset top seeded Kansas just to make the Sweet Sixteen. GO BIG BLUE!! image

    I think L'ville could easily upset the what seems to be the universal pick to come out of the South

    Winthrop to the elite 8.
    Yeah baby !

    << <i>Winthrop to the elite 8. >>

    I don't think they'll get past Notre Dame. Not sure I like that matchup from Winthrop's point of view. image
  • estangestang Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭
    I had Old Dominion to Sweet Sixteen & GA Tech to Elite Eight. Um wel, uhhhh, I'm toast!

    OSU to take it all is my guess, which means they will not win.
    Enjoy your collection!

    Well, with Xavier putting up a good fight against Ohio State, as well as the fact that Kansas has a history of choking in the NCAAs lately (especially as a top seed), I really like UK's chances for tomorrow! image

    The TAMU UL game lived up to expectations. If Georgetown doesn't rally, my bracket becomes toilet paper!

    Looks like Cinderella wasn't invited to the ball this year.
