It's on!

Now that the bracket and teams have been posted for the public to see, let's discuss winners, losers, upsets, and everything else college basketball here. I'll update my Elite Eight in a few hours once I'm done making up my mind.

Elite Eight: Florida, Wisconsin, Kansas, UCLA, Texas, Georgetown, Tennessee (yea suck it napoleon), Memphis

I've picked Tennessee to pull the biggest upset by knocking off The Ohio State. Other than that I think the only other possible flaw is Wisconsin since they are so inconsistent but we'll see.

I was considering making them my sleeper elite eight team, until they lost to freakin' Miami in the ACC tournament.

I think it's either a first round loss or the sweet sixteen for them. They'll either have it or they won't.

If they do have it though, I think they lose to Florida. They matchup pretty bad with Florida.

I would love for Tennessee to beat Ohio State, but I do not think that's gonna happen. Oden's just too beastly.

Texas and Carolina will be interesting. Think Hansbrough will still be the masked villian or will he rip off his mask for the tourneys?

I wish NC State were playing. I love Atsür.

Oregon could go far, I think.

My Elite Eight: Florida, Oregon, Texas, Washington St., Kansas, UCLA, Memphis, and Ohio State.

I really don't want Florida to win it all, so I'm going with Ohio State.

Oregon is an interesting team. I was going to pick them to go far(elite eight), but I looked at their roster and they pretty much lack anything resembling a post player. Aside from Virginia, they may be the most guard dependent team in the bracket.

I should point out, in about half the brackets I've made, I've switched between Texas and UNC for the elite eight.

It wouldn't surprise me to see Texas, UNC, or Georgetown to come out of the east.

I also have a hard time seeing any teams beating Kansas or UCLA before the elite eight. Their brackets are cake.

I've picked a few early round upsets but no real Cinderella story team, the lowest seed I have in the sweet 16 is a 7 seed. In my final four I have Florida, UCLA, Georgetown, and Texas A&M. Then I have UCLA over Texas A&M in the title game.

My upsets in the first round are Winthrop over ND, VCU over Duke, Gonzaga over Indiana, Stanford over Louisville and Long Beach State over Tennessee.

My Elite 8 is Florida, Oregon (Midwest); S. Illinois, UCLA (West); Texas, Georgetown (East); Ohio State, Texas A&M (South).
