I didn't see much of Clemson this year, but what I saw over the weekend was impressive. A couple of times they looked unstoppable, very physical along with athletic. They may be just one player short of going all the way...

Hell yeah, that's what I'm talking about...my Spartans in the Final Four (again).  I like this guy!

Honestly I filled out my bracket and have Miss. St. beating Memphis (almost picked them to lose in 1st round but #1's never lose first round)...once I did that I had to pick my Spartans to go deep.  I figure if I'm wishing I might as well wish big!

The thing about the tourney that you always hear is that "you need great guard-play to win."  But recently teams that go far usually have 2 quality athletic big men plus guys who can fill it from the outside.  Clemson has both and has played in some very tight games and plays a pressing style that bothers people.  They're my darkhorse obviously and vey well could get beat in the first round by Villanova.  But they're fun to watch, play really hard, and that 8-minutes to go, 20 point comeback against my boys earns my support.

I think I'm going to change mine. I don't feel good about my bracket.

i'm a total chick when it comes to filling out a bracket. i don't follow NCAA hoops, so i go on the higher seed, or personal favorites. no research. no nothing.

OK, my wife LA is in. She went straight up higher seeds over lower seeds with all #1's in the finals and Memphis over Kansas. She likes Chris Douglas-Roberts b/c his last name is like ours...

QuoteI know I'll get to see it Thursday, but what's everyone got as their Final Four?

Here's mine:

1.) UNC
2.) Texas
3.) Xavier
4.) Kansas

Xavier is down by 11, early 2nd half...your boys better get with it, or your bracket is busted!

I had four sleeper teams going into the tourney.  Two of them play each other in the first round (USC and Kansas St) and the other two will likely play each other in the second round (Purdue and Xavier). I hate it when that happens!

Looks like Xavier got their act together in the 2nd half.  That's another match ups of teams that could go far if they didn't have to play each other.  GO MUSKETEERS!!!

tell me about it. I haven't seen dook look that average in a while. however, much credit to scrappy Belmont and their back doors and key 3's plus I think coack k got out coached for a lot of the game. I think a lot of people outside of Nashville lost bank on that game.

and let's hear it for kentucky, who had 4 players score their entire game. good grief,

Despite my earlier-in-the-year comments, I actually have Dook going to the Elite 8.  I just thought that their draw was very easy.  That was close.  The scary thing for Dook is that Belmont plays just like them and had no real interior game that could exploit Dook's biggest flaw.
