I've got Wichita State. 7/10 match up they are favored in and then the weakest 2 seed in UK imo. Look out for the shockers!
Who is your lock for bracket buster?

A lot of times the overhyped bracket busters are not actually.
While these may not be considered traditional bracket busters, I wouldn't be surprised to see one of these 7-10 teams from major conferences make a deep run. Teams like Michigan and Wisconsin are no joke. If Michigan keeps it up, they've been playing very well. And I think Wisconsin is a bit underrated - lately they've been playing better after getting healthy, but Villanova is a horrible match-up for them - but ya never know.
Also, Seth Davis told me that Nevada is a sleeper. Ugh.
Can I tell you after the first game? lol
I think Michigan can have a deep run if they keep up playing as they have. However, they played an exhausting Big Ten Tournament and I could see them slipping up early. But I wouldn't be surprised to see a major conference team seeded above 6 make a run. I think there's a lot of parity in those 3-12 or so slots.
lol if they can remember how to put the ball in the hoop! what's cooler than being cool? ICE COLD
Ya, sadly, Purdue fans can testify to Wisconsin's prowess as an 8 seed...
I have been to a few MTSU games and they are better than last year. I think they move on.
I was going to agee with zippity doo dah day, then I saw he picked Nevada and I can't agree with that. Boilers in the sweet 16 minimum.

Actually, I don't see them beating us. I kind of lost track of the term bracket buster ... and just looked at first round upsets ... sorry, I am not disloyal!!!!
Then I agree, especially with the Blue Raiders.
Just for fun - I'll take Middle Tenn St, Rhode Island, and UNC Wilmington against your three ... for two beers ... and some laughs.
OH WAIT - I should know the rules first. I am sure MICH will move on ... do the teams have to be a 9 seed or lower???? and how far do they need to go to be a winner.
This board needs more laughs though ... so I'm in
If they play like they did in the BTT....I could see them upsetting Louisville
I'm about to text a coach down in Tennessee that played for the Blue Raiders...haven't texted him since last year when they made it. Surprised they are on the radar around here.

I think Purdue and Michigan will do better than expected in the Midwest region. Would love to see Northwestern win against Gonzaga. That would be epic! Hopefully the Northwestern team that beat Maryland in the BTT shows up and not the one that lost badly to Wisconsin.
F*** Wisconsin. I'll never forgive them for that game. Gene's last, best chance at a Final Four taken by some Johnny-Come-Lately. ...the media's excitement that such a long-time coach like Dick Bennett finally getting to the Final Four was the salt in the wound. It's not like Keady hadn't been beating on that door harder and longer.
Add on "the Fumble" and I really have no love for Wisconsin. Big Ten be damned, I hope they lose in the first round. (Honestly, I feel that way about the rest of the Big Ten + Notre Dame and Butler, as well
)
If you go by what a lot of people on Twitter is saying, it's apparently Vermont. Why? Because they are playing us, who cares if how teams actually match up and the fact Vermont has beating no one.
