NCAA bracket thread: who's in your Final Four, and who wins it all?
In my bracket I have UCLA, Texas, Louisville and Wisconsin in the Final Four with Texas winning it all.

Mind you, this isn't exactly what I think will happen, but filling out a bracket with my actual predictions (UCLA, Pittsburgh, UNC and Georgetown, with UCLA winning it all) has never won me a cent. "Strategy" brackets have won me my office pool three out of the last six years, mostly because my actual predictions really suck.

You?

I must admit though, when they're ranked #1, after the first round or so, they forget why they're there. lol:shrug:

3. I keep hoping my Pitt Panthers will make it
Edited on Wed Mar-19-08 12:11 PM by tigereye
and if not, then UCLA

but neither has been able to quite get there.


Georgetown might be able to go the distance. But UNC is lurking in there - and they are really good. I'm happy not to see Florida again, and shocked they didn't make the cut. (nor Ohio State)

10. I hope you're right. The heels are good but have suffered
a few injuries. They keep hanging in there though. They took the ACC title. I was worn completely out after the final tourney game . LOL

11. I mostly picked them because they have a lot of home-court advantage.
I think they get to stay in the state of North Carolina until it's time for the Final Four. That said, they're also a pretty damned good team this year.
