March Madness is definitely one of my favorite times of the year, and I get to watch it at work this year for the first time in awhile. I'll be glued to the TV all day watching basketball (while TiVoing golf at home).

I've done three brackets, and I've changed them up a bit each time in order to maximize my chances for prizes. In one, I have Louisville, Kansas, Memphis, and UCLA in the Final Four. I have Kansas beating UCLA to win it all. In the other two, I can't remember all the teams I have making the Final Four, but I know I have UCLA winning it all. I think I have Stanford making the Final Four in those two brackets, but I'm not sure.

After breaking down all the match-ups hundreds of times, I just love what I see with Kansas and UCLA. They both have great point guard leadership and a very solid post presence. Also, both teams know how to D up, and that goes a long way in March.

I'm looking forward to it to say the least.

I picked Other.

In a reversal of the '88 tourney, K-State beats Kwho to get to the final 4. Then beats Texas inthe Championship game.

Unlike '88, K-State does NOT get put on probation like Kwho in '89, so we can go back to the '09 tourney, unlike Kwho in '89 who was BANNED from the tourney.
I've spent most of my life golfing - the rest I've just wasted.

I picked Tennesse with Smith-Smith and Smith

I have Memphis, UNC, UCONN and Kansas. Last year, three number one seeds made the Final Four. I'm going the same route, this year. I think UCONN will beat UCLA only because Love has a back issue and they don't have the depth up front like UCONN.

Memphis will beat UNC and give Coach Cal his first NC.

I have Drake beating UCONN in the first round. I'm just not sure about the Huskies. They can look great at times, and they can look awful at times. I think Drake gets the big upset.

Baylor has the guard play to give teams trouble, but they struggled badly towards the end of the season. I have Purdue in that one for sure. Purdue isn't flashy, but they are very steady.

You can tell how much I follow basketball that I picked UNC, U$C, UCLA, and Stanford for the final four with UCLA winning. Realistically, it's UNC gonna win. But my students can see my brackets, so it's more of a job security thing than a "winning the pool" thing that made my choices.
