My Final four picks

Written on March 18, 2009 – 4:40 am | by chanceblack |

Let the madness begin……….March Madness is in full swing, and there is so much speculation as to who will win the NCAA basketball championship, and the arguements are getting ugly. So I’m going to give you my picks for the final four. lets get started……..

Midwest Bracket: This is the toughest bracket out of all the brackets and the number 1 seed is Louisville. Rick Petino will need to summon the basketball gods to come out of here to the final four. There are at least 3 teams that can mess things up for the Cards. Kansas, Mich. State, Wake Forest, possible Utah, Ohio State, West Virginia can also could make life miserable for the Cards. The thing is the Cards can come out of this one of two ways…1). tired and beat & battered…..or….2).with momentum and more prepared (much like the Steelers in the NFL) I do see Louisville coming out and winning the bracket but I will take number 1. Lousiville wins Midwest

West Bracket: UCONN got the softest bracket of all. No-one really scares you and the Huskies are the Most talented team in this bracket. Mizzou, Memphis, Purdue could make a game of it, but getting to that game with UCONN will be a TASK for all three. All three teams could lose getting to UCONN. I just don’t see anyone taking UCONN down here. UCONN wins west.

East Bracket: OK I’M A HOMER SUE ME!!!!!!!! but in any case this bracket is the are you surprised bracket. Seriously look at all the teams in this bracket. Unlike the midwest where the competition is tough all the way around, this bracket is where the hottest team can win this bracket. I know Pitt is the number 1 but Xavier, Wisconsin, Villanova, even Duke ( if the 3 point shooting is hot) can win this bracket. No one will be surprised. gotta give some love to the Big 12 so Texas wins the East.

South Bracket: UNC should win this bracket. It is their bracket to lose, Ty Lawson being hurt does not help the Tar-Heels. There are a couple of big test in this bracket. Arizona state, Oklahoma, Gonzaga, could break the hearts of Tar-Heel nation ( if Ty is not healthy). The Heels will rally whether Ty is healthy or not. They did it during the reagular season so I can’t see a meltdown now.
