This region is going to be make or break for a lot of people. This region could seriously be upset city; pitt, kansas, zaga, and indiana are all going to have real hard first round games. I got SDSU and Xavier moving on but I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Flashes and Braves advance.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 06:30 PM) 1 game at a time, but I'm shocked we didn't play ourselves into the Minny regional. But all that matters right now is Northwestern State. NW State is a pretty damn good team too, don't get me wrong..I think you guys will win but NW state can definitely play.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 06:20 PM) I actually think you guys got a decent draw. Seedings are off, but I think your matchups are solid. I'm with you 100 percent here. Got to find a way to get past uconn but a real weak 2, a real weak 5 imo, unc is solid but I believe Illinois is better, I know msu is going to be everyone's sleeper but until they defend I don't think they do much.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 06:18 PM) IF we get past Air Force, Washington scares me a lot. You guys will beat washington, no doubt in my mind.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 06:14 PM) Here I go!! 1. Tennessee gets a 2. EVERY #3 and #4 seed has a better resume than Tennessee. Go ahead and check for yourself, it's true. Tennessee if they get lucky makes the Sweet 16 to be blown out by Michigan State or North Carolina. 2. Jim Nantz and Billy Packer- You 2 can f*** yourselves and go to hell. Sorry that all the at large can't be high majors like you want, assholes. 3. Illinois a #4: Iowa a #3 and tOSU a #2 is fair, but Illinois a 4?!?! Come on now, we are f***ed even if we survive to the sweet 16 and play UConn. Illinois finishes #2 in the #1 league in America, beats UNC at UNC....and we get a #4 to UNC's #3. Nice. 4. GW an 8. Yeah they are overrated, but an #8? LMAO, your kidding me. 5. UCLA goes 0-2 against a damn good Washington team. UCLA gets a #2 and Washington gets a #5. Also, Washington gets a #5 and Nevada gets a #5. Great job committee!!! 6. Air Force gets in over Missouri State? That isn't a joke, it's MUCH worse than that, it's pathetic. Have you seen Mizzou State's RPI?? It's about 70 spots higher than Air Force. Also, congrats Indiana fans, I think I might have you going to the Final 4 (and i'm pretty good at picking that) and I like how Duke is the #1 overall seed, yet the worst #2 seed BY FAR is in the UConn region, and Duke will get GW in the SECOND ROUND!! and then possibly LSU and that freaky athletic squad. Wow. G Wash has to get by UNC Wilm.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:52 PM) Mizzou State should have got in over Air Force. However, Creighton not getting in makes sense to me with their injuries and late season play. Doetzler would have been back for the tourny though which the committee says they look at. Complete f***in bulls*** and oh ya Hofstra would kill air force as well, complete bs.

I would just like to say that Mo State and Creighton would beat the crap out of Air Force.

I know Illinois fans are pissed about the seeding BUT I believe the winner of them and Uconn gets to the final four, actually there is no doubt in my mind.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:32 PM) Every member of this years committee should be fired for this bracket, for every reason possible. What a joke, and it goes FAR BEYOND just Illinois. Ya, these brackets are seriously f***ed up.

QUOTE(chimpy2121 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:31 PM) How realistic is it that Tennessee gets beat in the first round? I think it happens. I really do. Winthrop is one hell of a team and um...Tennessee plays no d.

The mvc got screwed by air force. UNI will be in, mo state and creighton out I think. I'm taking the 15-2 upset here without even thinking twice.

Ok, this is totally f***ed up. The committee was high. And bye bye tennessee first round.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:25 PM) Kent over Pitt is one I'll think long and hard about. Kent can ball, and it's the always fun 5 vs. 12 game. Upset potential all over this region. I'm taking pitt but the flashes winning would not surprise me at all.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:23 PM) I could see Gonzaga losing to Xavier, and Indiana could kick their ass if they get past SDSU. This bracket is impossible to predict, I'm gonna suck it up. I'm going to take both of those upsets.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:22 PM) If IU can get past San Diego State, they can take down Gonzaga. Hell yea. SDSU will be a harder game then Gonzaga, no doubt in my mind. The zags are going to have to get by Xavier, who really is a solid team now that they got things back on track.

Wow, hard ass f***in game for IU.

Looks like Bradley was the last team in.

wtf is going on with this seeding.

After the intial shock of being an 11, I'm pretty happy about the pairings. West Va and Iowa are pretty good matchups for us if we can get to Iowa. If we do play Iowa, wow..2 to 0 game.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:15 PM) SIU an 11=4 Valley Teams in the dance maximum. Get nervous Valley fans... Very good point and very true.

Wow, I'm angry and happy, wvu is a perfect matchup for us but an 11???

Give me a f***in break but I do love that matchup for us to be honest.

f***. you. commercials.

5 minutes my friends, 5 minutes. I'm soooooo f***in excited.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 04:23 PM) I nominate myself for idiot of the day. You were on the top of my list for idiot of the year. I'm kidding of course.
