I picked the Final 4, even had Davidson losing in Elite 8 too. My bracket has done well this year (some years it has not). My buddy took my picks & has a chance to finish in the top 10 on ESPN's Bracket Challenge out of millions of brackets.

I think UCLA slows down Memphis & makes them have to hit FTs down the stretch. Carolina is just a smidge better than Kansas.

I have UCLA - Carolina in Finals.

Carolina wins 73-69.

Who do you y'all have?

I have UNC and Memphis left, I have both of them making the finals with UNC winning. If they both make I get either 1st or 2nd

Who do you y'all have? Ive got UNC over UCLA in the finals as well. Only final four team I missed was Memphis and I honestly thought they would make it just didnt want to pick 4 number 1's

I hear you, but I just could not pick against the #1 seeds this year. Those 4 were pretty much better than the rest all year. 1st time since seedings began in 1979 that all #1 seeds made it.

My luck may run out today...

THEY BETTER HURRY UP IF THEY'RE GOING TO SLOW THEM DOWN. THEY'RE STILL WITHIN REACH, BUT MEMPHIS SEEMS TO HAVE THE UPPER HAND, AT LEAST FOR NOW.

My luck may run out today... Yea I agree these are and have been the best 4 teams all year I knew that going in and should of went with my gut. As far as the final four goes when I picked it I had UCLA over Memphis but if i could of done it over I would of went with Memphis I just had a feeling after seeing Memphis destroy Texas that this team and Rose are for real

I watched a couple minutes of the first game, but it was boring me so I changed the channel.

Kansas up 44-27 at halftime. Carolina came back a bit. Hopefully Kansas can continue to kick butt in the second half.

I called it. UNC is making a run but Kansas with a big lead still. I got 17 cents riding on this game. Let's go Kansas.

UNC needs to get a defensive rebound.

I lost out big-time today. Memphis & Kansas played well & deserved to win. I was wrong on my picks, had a great run until today. That's the way it goes...no $$ lost on my end, but my buddy did whom I helped. Drinks on me!

Memphis looks like team to beat Monday night.
