Tennessee got a 2nd seed. Now if they don't blow it early they should hit the sweet 16 or better.

My picks are made. It looks like 8 people have signed up so far, and I know 1 or 2 others that will sign up.

That looks to hard. How do you pick from so many teams? My dad took off this Thursday and Friday so he could watch all day.

Kiara, just take the #1 teams in each bracket to the final four and pick a few upsets along the way. That should be as good as most people who watch every game during the season.

Hello all, its that time of year once more. Time to spend time peering down at a marked over and scratched out slip of paper. It NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament time, and I am here to help you all with BIGKEV’s guide to the 2006 tourny.
First we will start with the Atlanta Region Duke vs. , oh it don’t matter. God loves Duke basketball and will not let them slip up and be the only team in NCAA history to be beaten by a 16 seed. He's saving that for UK!
George Washington vs. UNC-Wilmington, this will be a very close game so play the money line and look for UNC-W to pull it out. GW has team issues that will only get worse as the media pounds on them. Seems GW knowingly recruited guys from a pay to play prep school in Philadelphia, I would hate to work in that admissions office.
Syracuse vs. Texas A&M, Syracuse will still be hot and will carry all of this game, look for the Orangemen by 10. Texas has too one sided a defense, they can stop out side shooting but will have to foul to hold the inside game off and will be hurt down the stretch, allowing Syracuse to pull away over the last 5-6 minuets.
LSU vs. Iona, Iona is a very good program, sound fundamentally but without the top tear talent to knock off a team like LSU. Good game in the first half, LSU by 15 going away.
West Virginia vs. SIU, SIU has the speed and talent to beat an overrated WVU team. WVU is living off it’s own press clippings this year, and will have problems with SIU’s speed. Good place to make up points in your pool.
Iowa vs. northwestern state, yawn take Iowa. Veteran team, lots of talent and little fan fair. Look for Iowa to put on a two or three game run.
Cal vs. NC State, Cal is all upside, unrealized or untapped potential. NC State is come threw the fire ACC tempered. I’ll take a NC State team come to work over Cal.
Texas vs. Penn, Penn aint Princeton and Texas will not be UCLA. Texas wins by half time. Time to check the batteries in the remote control.
Like um, love um think I’m and idiot, that’s the Atlanta region for the first round. Check back later for more! Don’t forget to post when I’m wrong, can’t think of the last time the internet didn’t love to flog a dead horse.

Here we are once more with the Oakland Region for the 2006 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament! Getting right into it……..
Memphis vs. Oral Roberts, God may have season tickets and him name in the frends of the program list, but lets be honest. OR has the chances of cake around a fat boy NONE.
Arkansas vs. Bucknell, lots of folks a telling that Bucknell has shot, nope, no shot at all. Don’t waist a first round miss pick here. Save it for latter. Arkansas after a first half close call.
Pitt vs. Kent State, Pitt is real, Pitt is good Pitt will win over a out side shooting Kent State team. Look for this is get out of hand. Pitt will pull the dogs so watch out for over under wagers. Stay with a simple Pitt win.
Kansas vs. Bradley, Bradley will show up collect the goodie bag get a shirt and hat. Kansas is a good team and can win a few games but is lacking the big game experience to win it all. Look for The Jay Hawks to win two or more games.
Indiana vs. San Diego State, Indiana is playing very good ball and the Aztecs are a west coast team, translation, Indiana just case I know nothing of soft WCC teams.
Gonzaga vs. Xavier, now this is where you play the upset card. The X-men did well in the A10, and played well non-conference. How ever the key is Defense. The X-men play it and the Bulldogs do not. Gonzaga looks good with the ball, but I question the legs of Batista on the inside and the mustache of Adam Morrison. I have the X-men sending the Zags back to the west coast.
Marquette vs. Alabama, Alabama is a well rounded team with quality wins in the SEC. Marquette will have problems with Alabama in transition and will lose a close game.
UCLA vs. Belmont, I hate UCLA, I will pick Belmont out of spite. You would do well to not pick a team out of spite, pick UCLA.

This will be a heck of an NCAA March Madness. I wish I could take off to just watch. I miss college where I could just miss class to watch all day long.
