March Madness is about to begin!!!! I'm excited!!!! Games are always crazy and a good time to find out what these prospects are all about.

But it's all about the Final Four, so here are the teams that I think will be in the Final Four and here is who I think will have their shining moment:

1. UNC
2. Louisville
3. UConn
4. Memphis

Champ: Hm.......................I like Memphis...they have a really good defense, clutch player is Tyreke Evans, and most importantly great coaching.
The bracket hasn't come out yet so..those 4 teams that I choose might be in the same region, so they might eliminate each other. I will have a different opinion when the bracket comes out tomorrow. I hope the scary looking Gophers make it though.

Who do you guys think will be in the Final Four and who will win it all???

I think it's a little early to make the predictions for the Final Four (I like to see the brackets first), but why not?

- Pittsburgh
- Memphis
- Louisville
- Oklahoma


I think Pittsburgh or Memphis has a good chance to win it. Actually, the field is pretty wide open this year compared to years past. Again, I need to see the brackets so my picks are still subject to change.

Go NDSU Bison, gonna upset Kansas!!!!!

Alright the bracket is out so let me revise my picks.

Midwest = Louisville
West = Memphis
East = Pitt
South = UNC

Champs = Memphis

Ha, I forgot about this and then did my bracket... and, it's exactly the same as I said above. I still like Pitt or Memphis, can't decide who yet. Maybe Memphis.

Nothing too shocking or interesting (in terms of upsets and whatnot) the first day. I was scared for Memphis for a little while, but never super worried that they wouldn't win.

I was 16 for 16 to kick off the tourney. I don't care what happens the rest of the way, this is already a bracket I'll remember.

I have a few metrics I strive for above just a generally good bracket.

1. A perfect day during the opening week
2. A perfect round
3. A perfect region
4. Hit all final 4 teams
5. Both finals teams
6. The winner

Well I went to sleep Mad after stayin up to watch VCU lose by one to UCLA!!
At least the Hill Toppers of WKY held off the Illini...

Hope there are some more upsets today!

and speaking of the VCU/UCLA game: Eric Maynor looked great as VCU's pure point/leader!

I picked UCLA and WKU. I've actually got WKU beating Gonzaga and going to the Sweet 16...

Congrats Pants, that is an awesome start. I'm 13-3. Good thing you didn't join my money pool!

Damn I wish I would have been around to get in your pool CW. I've been AWOL a bit, partly because I have little to nothing to say about our team

Well, I'm 40 - 8. I would be two points better but my office pool is on an excel spreadsheet and I accidently clicked Western Kentucky over Gonzaga. Oh well, gots to be more careful. People in my office are terrible though. Last year I won it and got myself a nice few hundrend dollars. I'm still in it as most people here have no clue and probably picked MN and the Bison to go to at least the sweet sixteen, maybe the final four!

Haha yeah, I hear ya there. My office pool has some... "interesting" choices, let's say. I did pretty well last year in mine too (didn't win it though.)

It looks like my pool is pretty solid, I'm not sure where 40-8 would put you. I guess it depends on which rounds. How many do you have in the Sweet 16 correct?

I'm one of those stupid people, daddy, I picked Utah and BYU to proceed and got screwed. My only saving grace is that I have 4 #2 seeds picked for the final four and am the only one in the pool to pick Oaklahoma to win.If I was in your pool you would win my money as well.

Yeah, my pool is completely up for grabs still. Most people have pretty similar final fours, so it will probably come down to who guesses the champion correctly.
