Don't think revenge factors play much of a factor in ncaa tournaments.  Each team is giving it 100% in these games...

No caring about where the game is taking place though?

good looking bracket buddy .. I'm working on my first of many right now.

Two things I agree on completely ..

Baylor - not sold on them either and think their draw has all teams who can frustrate the Bears

New Mexico - think they make a deep run

I like a lot of your picks, but think you will regret picking Utah State to make it to the sweet 16.  I think TAMU has a relatively easy path to the sweet 16.  Utah State does not match up well with the A&M.  They like to play a slow, grind it out style that plays right into A&M's hands.  Further, Dash Harris is expected to be back and 100%, so I think the Ags win the first game by 10+.  Reminds me a little bit of last year when A&M played BYU in the first round and I just don't see the Ags letting any of these teams keep them from getting to Houston.

Baylor only had 2 players shoot over 60 3-pointers, Dunn and Carter...they're not dependent on the 3. In fact, Baylor's game hinges on their ability to drive the ball. Acy and Carter are super long dunkers, Udoh is capable of scoring face-up to the basket or backing down, and Lace Dunn is a pretty good rebounder for his size.

If Dunn or Udoh get in foul trouble it's lights out for Baylor...a slow paced team (like they'll face in the 2nd round) could give them fits, but Baylor really is not a chucking team. A loss to Nova would surprise me more than a loss to ND/ODU.

That's exactly what Nova does

Nova? They were not as good as everyone thinks they were. Take away Scottie Reynolds and they are nothing. No big man,no boards, no consistency. No way they get passed the 2nd rd.

Can you post your best bracket?

I'm looking at winner take all, roughly 80 people, scoring is 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 15. Anyone have any suggestions?

Love New Mexico... have them in the Final 4 in one of my brackets.

Like Baylor & Nova, I think the winner there goes from that Region.

Ok State & OSU could be an interesting second round matchup, lots of similarities, but I think the Buckeyes are just a better version of the Cowboys

I have KU over Baylor in one bracket, and KU over Nova in the other

Good Luck UNC

away from the pitt, nm is average at best. oral roberts blew them out.  did god call them home?

Baylor to the final 4. They got a great bracket to do it in. They are athletic enough to keep up with nova and have a better inside game. Duke isnt athletic enough to keep up. BOL either way

Nova does the same thing, but I like the Bears on the boards

Everyone picking KU thats why im picking Syracuse to knock them off in the final four. i think that if you take Kansas to win it all your bracket better be money in the earlier rounds because you will be competing with the majority of all the brackets. I know you all think im smoking crack but its worth a shot if over 80% of people on KU. Or just have KU losing in the final game might better your chances of winning. KU road to the final 4 is brutal IMO.

Love the NM pick UNC.  Been my dark horse since early January and everyone rides me like Seabiscuit when I tell them that.  Good luck this post season.
