I'm going to take Kan State over USC and Kentucky over Marquette. Anyone see a serious 13-16 upset?
 
My only prediction is that the guys closest to the end of the bench will be the most animated during the games and as a result, get the most TV exposure.

I've got KSU as well........waffled back and fro on KY and Marquette.
 
I also have K-State, and I kind of like Winthrop over Wazzu. I guess I hate the Pac-10.

My only prediction is that **** Vitale will be cheerleading for his favorite coaches.

Not sure if a 10-7 is upset territory, but I love St. Mary's over Miami.
Winthrop is also one to keep an eye on against Washington State in a 13-4 game, and almost all of the 12-5 games raise an eyebrow.
 
Oh, I also like St. Joe's over Oklahoma, if you're into No. 11 seeds.

From 11-seeds on down, I got Boise State over Louisville, Georgia over the X-Men, Temple over Sparty, and Baylor over Purdue.

As a Mizzou alum, I always apply the Mizzou corollary and eliminate teams that lost to the Tigers as early as possible. Thus, USC beats K=State, Baylor beats Purdue and Texas falls in the Sweet 16 (only because I can't see AP, Miami or St. Mary's beating them though I think St. Mary's gives them a good shot). I like all of the 10 seeds if you even count those as upsets anymore.
 
I have Bob Knight walking off the set, cussing. He won't make it through the tournament. He sounds and looks like he is having zero fun.

That wouldn't be an upset, would it?
