Ive got two numer ones but was curious about yalls picks

I've only got one. Of course - I know nothing of college basketball.

I have two. Any more than that is a statistical anomoley. I believe since they started the current seeding syetem 20+ years ago there have never been 4 number 1 seeds in the Final Four. Having three make the Final Four has only happened three times if I remember correctly.

In other words...1 or 2 is a much safer bet than 3 or 4.

based on my own expert analysis, I have restructured my brackets and now have only one number one seed in the final four. I cant imagine being wrong about even one game this year. yes Im that good.

After last year, I'll be happy just to get half the Final Four right.

who do u guys have slated to take the tourney???? I filled mine out today and after looking back over it i think i may have been drinking or something...need to redo it before i submit it....I do like OK St. chances in their bracket though...I am wondering how strong St. Joe's really is after that X game.....who knows...I dont follow too closely until championship week...but you can't beat basketball being on TV every nite!!! I love the time of year....soon the final four...then its NBA time....then i hibernate until football!

I've been high on Stanford for about 2 months now. They're my predicted champion.

I am predicting no number ones make it.

WTF - Did anyone pick Manhattan over Florida? I've never even heard of Manhattan! And even if I had heard of them, they wouldn't have a basketball team.

UNT_92_Fan · March 18, 2004

i actually picked manhattan to take the game against florida, if u listened to anything on bracket on ESPN radio, Manhattan was heavy favorite to be the upset over florida...Did I mention i LOVE this time of year!!!!!

That was the easiest upset call of the day. Manhattan did upset Oklahoma in the 1st round a few years back too. The Jaspers are consistently one of the best mid majors in America.
