Bracket Predictions - how wrong will you be this year?
Make your bold, terrible predictions here. Think this will be the first year a 16 seed wins? Have a 9-seed in the final four? Have Michigan winning it all?
Sadly, I picked MSU to win it all in a few brackets already. I'm also jumping on the UConn momentum bandwagon and have them going to the final four.
Very wrong

to the office brackets for years.
That will not likely change this year either.
However, I cannot bring myself to pick staee to win it all- ANYBODY but them!
After Sparty gets to the Final Four, they are one out of seven for closing the deal. That's a "closing percentage" of .143.
Cannot pick state to win it all. Will probably take Michigan much farther than I should.

Disrespekt!!!!
idiot talking head on CBS just said it's controversial UVa got a 1 seed over Michigan!
Anyway, I'm picking sparty on at least one bracket - so potential winnings notwithstanding if I'm gonna be wrong about something I'll take that one!!
With picking these brackets, I'll pick state to win so they hopefully have an epic flameout
UNC Wilmington over Duke.
that Spartie will slap the floor a lot. And that is the only prediction of which I don't run the risk of being wrong.
I think the B1G will make the committee look terrible; MSU, Indiana, Maryland, Iowa, and Purdue all make the Sweet 16.
Dammit!!! You didn't mention US?!
I really wanted to, but even if we get past Tulsa and ND, WVU is the exact type of team that has torn us apart this year.
and then the following Tuesday morning I'll be announcing
Just like Jay Bilas' bracket.
I've only finshed one, but right now I really like Kentucky. I'm not sure how they're a 4 seed, but it's only gonna help them.
I'll take Kansas
That's my prediction too.
Well, I know how wrong I usually am - aside from one glorious year where I came in third and won part of a prize, I have not won a single pool at work in the twelve years I've been there. Indeed, after that third place finish in 2009, my highest finish is twelfth last year - that rank, of course, awards you exactly zero dollars. In other words, I've been very wrong.
my best year I came in second. Everybody was picking Florida to win so I went against the grain and took the Oden & Conley led osu squad. It was between me and Will for the money and the Gators took a bite out of the buckeyes.
Michigan beats Tulsa. Msu will win more games than I'd like. Kansas chokes, like always, but a team from their region loses in the title game (happens quite often, actually). Unc over Villanova for the title.
UM is the new UCONN.
UConn is the new UConn.
I picked Duke over Wisconsin last year, so undoubtedly, my March Madness bracket career has peaked and it's all downhill from here.
My strategy in the 20 years I've done brackets is to pick the team with the best overall player in my opinion (it's worked twice: Okafor last year, Kemba Walker in 2011). I'll be using it again this year (hint, I don't think it's Valentine).
Wrong as usual
All of the wrongs will belong to me
UNC, MSU, MD, OR.
Dark horse - Purdue.
Michigan upsets ND.
Top of BIG is pretty good this year, IMO. Which means they'll get swept out of sweet 16.
Xavier, Oklahoma, Kansas and Virginia look good to me!
MSU does very poorly in the final four and they could have lost to both Maryland and Purdue. I do have them in the final four but I think they lose to North Carolina.

I promise I will not make a single incorrect selection. I guarantee it.
and he outcoaches Self for the title.
I used this matrix last year that did a side by side comparison of the matchups on an excel sheet which actually helped me win my office bracket. I can't remember what it was though. Anyone have an idea of what I'm talking about?
2 that i studied matchups and 3 that i let a few more cinderellas win than usual. First brackets Final 4 is Duke, Uconn, Indiana and Butler with IU takin the ship. The seond one is Duke, Uconn, Seton Hall and UNC with Duke winning it all. The the 3 other champions are Chattanooga, Gonzaga and Mid Tennessee State(0% chance this one would happen)
