Posted March 11, 200718 yr comment_7966 I will post the brackets when announced later today. I am hoping Memphis will be a #2 seed and a high enough #2 to be allowed into the South region. If we had got a #1 we would have just been sent out West anyway. So I am glad we should get a #2 or #3 seed if we don't go out West. I predict: Memphi: #2 Duke: #7 (deserves worse, but they cheat to help Duke) Ohio State, UCLA, North Carolina, Florida: #1s Kansas: #2, they dont deserve it though. They have worse RPI than Memphis, yet people say Kansas deserves a #1. Give me a break! Memphis has won 22 straight, 32 straight at home, went undefeated in conference, and undefeated in conference tournament.
March 12, 200718 yr Author comment_7968 I can't find a good bracket to actually copy and paste instead of having an image. I was pretty right except I was 1 off on seeds for UCLA, Kansas, and Duke. They cheated for Duke even more than I thought and dumbly put Kansas as a #1 despite them having a worse RPI than Memphis most of the year. Interesting Notes: Clemson started the season at 17-0 and did not make the NCAA Tournament. Alabama was ranked #4 in the country in December and did not make the tournament. Syracuse did not make it. UCONN had a 1 last year and did not even make the field this year either. Air Force has a top 30 RPI and did not make the field.
March 15, 200718 yr Author comment_7969 Chances of a perfect bracket: 1 in 9 quintillion. (or 18 quintillion according to some sources)
March 15, 200718 yr comment_7970 My final Four is Oregon, Kansas, Texas A&M and North Carolina. Kansas and Texas A&M meet in the final. Kansas Wins 79-71 Notice I put my picks in before the Tourney started. Some people here usually like to put thier predictions after the games have been played and then say they forgot or didn't want to bother. Nice going on those seeding pics. almost right on the money.
March 16, 200718 yr Author comment_7971 Duke already lost. lol I hope Memphis doesn't overlook their opponent this morning. They are coached by our last coach we had before Calipari.
March 25, 200718 yr Author comment_7975 Well another great year for Memphis. We lost to Ohio State in the Elite Eight due to: 1. officials 2. Dorsey not backing up his talk. Honestly the officials alone are why we lost. May sound weird if you look at how much we lost by. But it was a 6 point game and we kept fouling them. So they added on 10 points simply from us fouling. And out of that 6 point lead, 2 of them came after a stupid intentional foul call and twice we went to the basket and got fouled near the end and it wasn't called. Also they called a blocking foul on Allen when it was really a charge on Ohio State. So that 6 point lead at the WORST would have been a 2 point lead or maybe even a tie. Then we would not have fouled and would have had a shot still.
