Let’s Get It On…Tournament Time
by Chris Harvey on 03/15/07
Tournament basketball games all day, all weekend …. sweet!
I woke up this morning frantically looking for CBS and the tournament…but wait no games on. Only Martha Steward and the Montel Williams show (he still has a show?). Then I realized that I am on east coast time and the games don’t start till noon. I’m used to waking up Pacific time and the games being on already. Oh well…I’ll turn the junk off for a while and read the stack of books I have for school or continue working on a evangelistic high school basketball league that I’m doing for an applied ministry class.
As promised… my bracket picks:
Biggest upsets: (I had a lot this year, maybe too many)
(12) Long Beach St. over (5) Tennessee
(14) Wright State over (3) Pittsburgh
(11) Winthrop over (6) Notre Dame
Cinderella:
(3) Oregon (ok not really a Cinderella team with a (3) rank but I got them beating Wisconsin and Florida.
Final Four:
Oregon, Kansas, Ohio State, Georgetown
(Georgetown vs. Kansas in final, Kansas winner!)
Summary:
Craziest bracket I’ve had in years. First bracket that I didn’t have Duke in the final four ever. Tough games to make decisions (especially when you pick from only one bracket). Also I fall into the category of not wanting to pick teams that I don’t like…North Carolina, Florida, Kentucky.
Enjoy the games! No comments from anyones brackets?

Okay, I got carried away and didn’t pay attention to the brackets. They should have asked me before they posted the them.
UCLA vs. OHIO ST. in the finals . . . . UCLA wins it all!

Harv,
I got Florida winning it all. After the first round I have 30 of 32 right, so I am feeling pretty good right now. As for your Oregon pick, I got Winthrop upsetting them this weekend, sorry!
