I like JH's picks. But I guess I'm the only non-Wolf Pack fan that likes Nevada a lot.

Pretty nutty picks, Kasko. Obviously anything can happen, but the only team I see having a fair chance of beating Kansas before the Elite Eight is Va. Tech. If they get SIU or the Illini, then game over, IMO. Their second-round game might be fairly tough, as well. I really think this is the year (much to the IB's dismay) that Self breaks through.

Nice to see you're still on the Purdue bandwagon, haha.

That should read "fairly tough, though," as in I see their 2nd round game being as hard as their potential Sweet 16 matchups.

I dunno, I like slower paced teams against KU and really feel like the Jayhawks could shit the bed again. Then again, I agree, they could win it all and I'm not surprised.

1-2 so far today but I haven't lost a S16 team. Survive and advance.
