Bracket Update

Oh, I'm sorry, I was thinking about something else. What was that? Oh yes, the bracket this year. No, I'm personally not doing well. No, I don't particularly care. Why? Oh, I must be dwelling on something else.....

Obviously, everyone who has Kansas as their champ is going to see a severe drop off in points over the next four rounds. I also have serious reservations about the Spartans being able to make a real run of this tournament without Kalin Lucas, but, will hold out hope that both Josh and Adam do indeed win out this year. That said, Becky's pick of West Virginia will get it's meddle tested this weekend, and potentially earn here a first-year entry victory.

That said, I would have to guess from the eye test that Syracuse looks like the new favorite to me. They look unstoppable. Bring on more madness!
