WSJ

I ended up with a FF of Duke vs. MSU and 'Cuse vs. Kansas, with Kansas beating Duke in the title game. xh lost to Temple in the Sweet 16 laugh.gif . I could've sworn I had Duke losing in the Sweet 16, or at best the Elite 8.

I didn't look at teams' seedings or RPI, only their attributes. Also tended to weight 3-point shooting and offense higher than defense if the teams looked equal; most upsets over the years, in my observation, seem to be the result of a team out-shooting its opponent rather than locking it down on D.

Be interested to see what everyone else's picks look like.

You got Kansas, too? I'm beginning to wonder if the guy who came up with this is/was from KU. You're like the 7th or 8th out of 10 I know who's gotten them at least in the final.

I had Michigan State over Duke and Kansas over Syracuse, Kansas winning.

St. Bonaventure beat FSU and South Dakota State beat Baylor in my first round.

The "Dingoes". I actually disagree with their 5-star "rating" for us, 3 pt shooting should be worse, defense better, hot streak higher.

I mean come on, anybody with a brain should be able to figure this team out:

Hot: 5
Experience: 1
Size: 5
Offense: 5
Defense: 5
3 pt shooting: 4

Seed: 1-2
RPI: Top 10

I didn't look at the descriptive words for the teams.

I only went by the "basketballs" that indicated the overall team status (based on that guy's analysis). tongue.gif

I picked the higher seed to win 3 out of 4 times, then picked a lower seed....repeat.
Very scientific.
