As I told OC last evening, I haven't heard the fat lady yet. She may be warming up, but she hasn't started to sing. I may be down three, but with five games to go I feel pretty good. After checking OC's picks, I couldn't be happier. (Hopefully I didn't just jinx myself.) Anyway, here we go:
MIDWEST REGION
#1 Florida over #3 Oregon
Actually, this was a toss-up for me, and I basically decided just to take whoever OC didn't. However, I definitely feel better about having Florida, a team that has won 14 straight postseason games. That's impressive. Also, they have been there before, and I honestly feel we haven't seen them at full speed yet. Look out Ducks. 83-71 Gators.
EAST REGION
#2 Georgetown over #1 UNC
Again, really happy OC picked UNC. They have been playing very well, and Georgetown did struggle a bit with Vanderbilt. However, I feel that every champion needs at least one scare before the Final Four, and Georgetown definitely got that against a very underrated Vandy squad. Hansbrough struggles to contain Hibbert and Green, and the Hoyas win 73-68.
We'll see how these games turn out, but I just hope they are more exciting than yesterdays. Back later when I'm only down one game.
