As much as I'd love to see it I don't think it's going to happen. I'm for the hometown team and all, but they aren't nearly as strong as last year's team that beat Notre Dame. I'm sure the Irish suffered a little pucker factor when they saw Winthrop in their bracket. LOL! Who knows, they did beat Miami and Georgia Tech earlier this season.

Siena's a local team here that been playing hot and also beat Stanford early in the year. They drew Vanderbilt in the 1st round and I almost went for them, but in the end think that draw is a little too tough for a team with no players who have ever been in the tourney before.
I have ND getting upset again, this time by George Mason. The Irish seem to under-perform in March Madness.
Have UCLA winning it all, nudging Tennessee in the finals. No long shots going past the Sweet Sixteen in my brackets; much as I love the mid-majors I'm a bit humbled by the Sugar Bowl fiasco.😳
