It’s the most wonderful time of the year! March Madness! I finally got smart and took Thursday afternoon off to watch the games. Friday is my normal day off, so I have two full days of basketball with no pesky job to get in the way. I do have to work on Saturday, so I run the risk of being at work during a UK game. I love March Madness. Now, on to my picks. This year I did not pretend to know anything about basketball. I went through the bracket, chose winners on instinct, changed a couple that I didn’t like and then left it alone. Here is the result.
Upsets:
1st round: Yale over LSU, Murray State over Marquette, UC Irvine over Kansas State, St Mary’s over Villanova, Seton Hall over Wofford
2nd Round: Miss. State over VA Tech, Buffalo over Texas Tech, UC Irvine over Wisconsin(Badgers? We don’t need no stinking Badgers), Cincy over Tennessee, Auburn over Kansas
Final Eight: Duke, Louisville, Florida State, Michigan, Virginia, Purdue, UNC, UK
Final Four: Duke, Florida St, Purdue, UK
Championship: Duke over UK. I just threw up in my mouth a little typing that..
I also did a homer bracket with UK winning.
Pick the exact opposite of this and you will win your pool
