NCAA Tournament 2012

Not sure but you guys will be able to see Machado in that game.

My Spartans are a #1 seed. Was hoping they'd lose a very close, hard fought game to Ohio State to keep them honest and hungry. Oh well. Every player who's been under Izzo for all four years has reached a Final Four. Now's such a year for the seniors.

How dare you lump me in with the BYU fans. I was just curious as I saw they were not listed as a normal team.


Also Curious to see who everybody has going all the way. Going to look at the brackets later tonight and pick them out. But some might be done already.
 
It's good to be "in", but c'mon, they have to get rid of 65-68. Make them play in the NIT if that's their spots. Tournaments should not have an unequal amount of games for some teams, BYU or no BYU.

I refuse to pick against BYU in my bracket of course, but I would probably go Missouri all the way otherwise.

So is BYU in? Does being in the play in game count?

It's considered the first round, but I have a hard time moving from tradition, so I say no it doesn't count unless they win that game - then it counted. For a 14 against a 3, Marquette is as good a matchup as BYU could hope for if they do get by Iona, IMO.

No question that the overall draw is pretty favorable. Those higher seeds in that region don't even scare me despite what I said about Missouri above. The problem with BYU is that they're injured. Most consistent scorer? Wobbly. Point guard that looked like he could do no wrong for a few games? Shaky confidence, shaky leg problems. The guy that was a sure 10+ of the bench and a 3 point threat? Not even contributing right now due to injuries.

I hope that week off since their last game healed some bodies.
 
Colorado is in! They'll probably get beat by UNLV, but hell, it's been like 10 years since the Buffs have made the tournament.

No question, if Hartsock is still hurting, they have little to no shot at beating Marquette.

anyhow, is someone doing a bracket thing again this year? I don't recall who's put it together in previous years.
