It's a really interesting bracket.
Just filling one out tonight (my first) ... man, there's some tough picks in even just the first round (most difficult I can recall).
Lots of dangerous mid-majors. Lots of mid-majors with recent tournament experience (some with success).
I'd enjoy seeing Drake pull off the upset (over Miami) ... a 12-5 matchup.
Florida Atlantic is really good. Oral Roberts is really good. Both have tough matchups, though.
Final Four picks?
Alabama may be the only #1 I consistently pick. Houston is next closest among the #1 seeds. I don't trust Purdue or Kansas.
As I've said many times before -- and I'm not the only one -- the first Thursday and Friday of the tournament are the single best sports days of the entire year. There's no other sport that has a stage suited so well for Cinderella teams to emerge. No other sport has more insane finishes. And so many of the highlights from these games live on and on for years.
