[SniperSB23]

I've been doing these since I was about 12. Here is my final bracket projection. I named the regions since it was easier even though they don't use the region names anymore.

Midwest
1 Ohio St.
2 Georgetown
3 Texas A&M
4 Nevada Las Vegas
5 Notre Dame
6 Tennessee
7 Arizona
8 Southern California
9 Virginia Commonwealth
10 Virginia
11 Davidson
12 Georgia Tech
13 Wright St.
14 Oral Roberts
15 Miami OH
16 Florida A&M/Jackson St


West
1 Kansas
2 UCLA
3 Pittsburgh
4 Nevada
5 Brigham Young
6 Maryland
7 Xavier
8 Villanova
9 Indiana
10 Purdue
11 Kansas St.
12 Gonzaga
13 New Mexico St.
14 Long Beach St.
15 Belmont
16 Weber St.

2 Memphis
3 Texas
4 Washington St.
5 Louisville
6 Creighton
7 Virginia Tech
8 Duke
9 Illinois
10 Winthrop
11 Old Dominion
12 Air Force
13 George Washington
14 Texas A&M Corpus Chris
15 Eastern Kentucky
16 North Texas


East
1 North Carolina
2 Wisconsin
3 Oregon
4 Southern Illinois

7 Boston College
8 Kentucky
9 Michigan St.
10 Vanderbilt
11 Syracuse
12 Holy Cross
13 Albany
14 Pennsylvania
15 Niagara
16 Central Connecticut


Midwest and the East are on one side of the bracket, South and West are on the other side.

I'm booting Texas Tech and Stanford which a lot of the analysts don't feel will be the case.

I was right on the four 1 seeds but I'm pretty shocked that Ohio St was #3 overall. Why Florida is in the Midwest and Ohio St in the South makes no sense to me.

I can tell you now...ODU beats Butler first round.

Yeah, that is going to be a 12 over a 5 on like 75% of people's picks I imagine.

UNLV got shafted getting a 7.

Wow, Niagara got hosed!

Looks like Scavs may be going to Columbus and staying with Curt for the Salukis game.

#4 seed...not too bad Scavs.

Actually I think it's nice to play a play in game. For those seeded 16th...they have never won...but a chance for Niagra to get an NCAA win...you proabably meant hosed by getting a 16 seed and not a 14 or 15 though.

Oh man....would LOOOOOOOVE to see VCU beat Duke...

[SniperSB23]

Seriously, Kansas may have the toughest opening round game for a 1 seed of all time. Niagara finished winning 11 in a row. They started 1-6 when half their team was suspended and went 21-5 after that. Their RPI was better than 5 other teams in the field. Niagara over Kansas, I'm calling it now.
