The real national championship is going to be the regional final of the East.

Indiana vs Miami (FL)

That's good enough for me.

Both these teams worry me in the earlier rounds. I've watched both teams play several times. If the opposing team doesn't grab their attention by being a marquee name, both teams are very capable of playing uninspired basketball. Do I see either gettin upset? Not necessarily. Do I see either team being taken the distance in an early round game? Absolutely. If I were to take the leap and pick one to be upset early, it would actually be Indiana being upset by NC State in the round of 32. Very good athletic team but an inconsistent team. Watched them a few times early in the year and thought they were good enough to make a deep run. IMO, they underachieved this year.

While I agree that NC State has underachieved this year and is more than capable of pulling off the upset, Indiana has played their share of uninspired basketball against the Big Ten heavyweights (Wisconsin, Ohio State, Minnesota) and otherwise has played exceptional all year long. My point is that every team played uninspired from time to time, some lose because of it, some don't. I think the Hoosiers lost some of those because they play in the best conference in the country. Besides, when it's tournament time, the good teams know when to turn it on, and Indiana is a very, very good team.

 
Hope you all picked good ones :D

We're checking our office brackets right now. I was told that I had 14 out of 16 on one of them.

 
I wasn't doing particularly well but not terrible either - I hadn't lost any of my Sweet 16 through Day 1.

Then Wisconsin happened (or didn't happen, as the case may be.

 
Well i'll admit I forgot about it this year till I heard scores this morning going to work of 2 upsets. I got to work and filled out my brocket without knowing scores or who won.

After filling out the bracket and checking scores my only losses are UNLV, New Mexico, Pittsburgh and now Wisconsin.

So, you picked every higher-seeded team to win except Oregon? Good work. ;)
