I have NC St beating up on St Louis in the "2nd round".

Louisville being a 4 is a joke.

The Tennessee/Iowa winner will stomp out UMass.

Harvard has a good shot to beat Cincinnati and if Xavier beats NC State I like them over St. Louis. I'd also give North Carolina Central a look against Iowa State.

I think all of the 4-seeds will make it through.

I think Iowa makes it to the second round. Are we doing a bracket challenge thing here on Derbytrail???

I think your spot on here. They gave them the #1 seed and then punished them with the brutal bracket. I still think they come out and go 40-0.
