I didn't make any official picks in the NCAA---good thing because I don't have many teams left still "alive".

I don't know basketball, but just for the "fun" of it I'm going with these for the Final Four:

Duke
Bradley
UConn
Villanova

Duke-UConn final w/ Duke winning Title

Duke is really tough, whether they're on or off their game... UConn is full of Stars, they'd be the safe pick...

'Nova's nothing special but I could see them making it...

And Bradley is VERY impressive... a lot of those Cinderella's make runs with a little bit of luck... Bradley's just doing their thing and are a very scary team...

My fangers are crossed for the them 'Horns, though, not too big of a long-shot...

Yea, my heart is with the "Horns, Gobbla, but I don't think they can get past Duke---hope they can get fired up and pull the upset if the Horns get by the next one.

they'd have to play a great game against Duke to beat 'em... I believe they would be "up" for that game for three reasons:

1.) It's Duke...
2.) IT'S THE MADNESS BABY (Vitale-like)
3.) The revenge factor

When Duke killed UT in the regular season this year UT wasn't at full-force I guess you could say, but still, that early in the season Duke was playing better than they are now, they may have hit the climax early... but they're still as scrappy as hell and would be hard to pick against in a game with the 'Horns...

But you gotta hope the "awesome" side of the 'Horns would show up in that game, and I believe they would... still might not be enough though...

Gotta get past those mountain folk first, though...

I still have 9 of 16, and 3 of my final 4. Not too sweet anymore, but I guess it could be worse.
