Let’s get it going again this year..

Who’s going to win it all? Who are you pulling for? Any Cinderella’s in your brackets?

Hoping my Raiders can make another strong run at least to the final 4. I have a wishful bracket with them winning it against Tenn, but my real bracket has duke vs Tenn with Tenn taking it home.

Lots of tough 8-9 and 7-10 games early on.

*like last year, no need for negativity.. if you don’t like college basketball, move along..

Go Cougars. Go Red Raiders. Good luck on getting replies.

Tech got a good bracket for a final 4 run!

Thanks Bill. We had 13 pages of replies last year, so hopefully a few will chime in.

I think so.. a Michigan matchup could be tricky, but I’d love a rematch with Duke.

New Mexico St is going to surprise people this year.

Lots of folks thinking the same. 30 win season is nothing to ignore. I don’t care who’s on your schedule.

Duke & UNC...Duke wins 77-75.

High probability

Anyone watching these first couple of games?

Why is no one setting up a THF tournament bracket?

Yes. The first one was very good.

I’m watching Texas and S Dakota State.
