Looking at the brackets I like Indiana, Duke, Florida and Ohio State in the Final Four. Who you got?

Ohio State's path to the Final 4 couldn't have been any easier.

OSU is thrilled they got the #2 instead of the #1.

tOSU's path as a 2 is easier than the roads of the 1 seeds save but maybe UofL.

Very true!

The South bracket has to e the most difficult to predict.

Gonzaga here is your prize for being a 1 seed...

Pitt #7 overall in Kenpom, #8 seed in the tournament. I'm shocked by that.

Gonzaga got the worst second round draw of the tournament. Brutal.

Not to mention they actually have a few guys that can matchup with Olynyk. I thought the Zags were going to get bounced before the Final 4 anyway, but this doesn't even seem fair.

As far as UC goes, they haven't played well since December. They don't often exit in the first round. This is the year. A disciplined team that runs offensive sets will have the Cats home early.

Cincinnati can defend anybody. I wish they would have drawn a more average rebounding squad but Creighton turns it over a bit. A decent matchup, gotta beat good teams this time of year. I think it will be a good game.

What's UK's seeding?

LOL

Who's does XU play in the ncaa?

You strike me as someone who is very depressing to talk to.

This was literally my worst case scenario for us going in so I wasnt all that surprised when the seeds came out.

I don't care who we play GO bearcats kick some butt

I'm tired of people thinking UC gets screwed in some vast conspiracy every year by the ncaa tourney committee...it's laughable really

and for the 100th time the 2002 Bearcats had no business losing to UCLA...that team ended up 21-12 with losses to Pepperdine, Ball State, and a first round pac 12 tourney loss to Cal. UC on the other hand was ranked in the top 5 and was a one seed. I don't give a dang how many nba players were on the ucla roster, I don't care what they were pre season...they were 21-12 for a reason. We had NO business losing to them...but people still act like we were screwed in the seeding and ucla depsite 11 losses coming into the ncaa should really have been a three or four seed......stop with the nonsense folks

Nope. Quite the opposite. I've just been kicked in the nads so often as a Cincy sports fan that I've come to expect the worst.

I'm actually happy they just made the tourney. Everything else is gravy.

I don't think Billy is depressing at all...he's being realistic. Anybody who has watch this team since Cash went down at DePaul knows it's got to be one of the worst offenses in the nation right now.

Yea. But one of the best defenses. C'mon!!! Creighton lost to Indiana St, Illinois St, and Drake. Cincy should pound Creighton like they did Missouri two years ago.


Amazing how little faith fans in this board have.
