UTEP and Minny both in and Minny will basically have a home game playing in Milwaukee
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Ok, a day later, and I'm still pissed at UTEP for playing like shit, but I hope they get a bid. Fingers crossed.

I feel your pain. Minnesota for the first time made it to the Big Ten Championship game only to lose by 31 points to Ohio State and that chump, Turner. The Gophers offense decided to not show up in the 2nd half, and they also decided not to guard Turner (Big Ten player of the year).

I'm also with you on the bubble watch.. But I'm too mad right now to even care. I'll come back later tonight to see the brackets.

UTEP has a decent shot to get to the sweet 16.

Filling in these brackets makes me realize just how little I know about these teams. Lol.

All I know is that Duke made an impression on me last year. Even though they didn't make it that far.

I like were the Badgers fell. They should be able to get to the Sweet Sixteen, but I don't see them advancing farther.

And to you as well. Like I said, I was mad earlier, so I ran some errands with my wifey for lifey and hung out with some friends this evening. Totally forgot about the selection. Come here, and see you congratulate me.. First thought was that you were congratulating the Gophers on getting blown out. lol

Looking at the brackets now (well, the West bracket were our teams are), I can see our teams making the first round.. but after that.. It'll be tough, lets just say that much. Good luck to UTEP.. Too bad there isn't any chance of our teams meeting in the Final Four.. I guess the Elite Eight will have to do. =)

Ok, a day later, and I'm still pissed at UTEP for playing like shit, but I hope they get a bid. Fingers crossed.

They totally did. But, hey, Minny deserved it more.. They had to knock out 2 of the 3 regular season co-champions to make it to the final game. It probably would have been easier on the committee though if MN met IL in the Championship game, though. The winner is in, the loser goes NIT.

So which match-ups/potential match-ups is everyone looking forward to?

Aside from the UTEP/Butler game, here are the other games I have my eyes on:

-Duke/Louisville would be an interesting match-up in the second round. It would be the first time Mike Krzyzewski and Rick Pitino faced each other in the NCAA Tournament since their epic  match-up in 1992.

Possible upsets I see:

(12) Utah ST. over (5) Texas A&M

(7) BYU over (2) Kansas St. (likely 2nd round game)

The only chance I see a 8/9 seed knocking of a #1, would be (9)Northern Iowa over Kansas. Yeah, its a stretch, but N. Iowa has the #2 ranked defense in the country, allowing only 54.3 points per game. And they are an experienced team.

Washington is my sleeper. They're gonna win a couple of games. Syracuse will win the title.
