The madness begins

I've spent the past week doing two things: working on numerous academic challenges and watching conference tournaments. It's no secret that I love college basketball this time of year, and this year is already providing excitement in massive amounts. I was indeed up for all six overtimes in Thursday/Friday's Syracuse v. UConn match up, and though I was really tired on Friday it was most definitely worth it. Other notes: Big Ten? Big Weak. Big Twelve? Big Suck. USC in the house! Nice job Tim Floyd, please come back to Iowa State. The Big East is the place to be. Memphis may be a good team, but when your quality wins are only Tennessee and Gonzaga and you spend the entire season beating up on C-USA teams, you do not get to have a number one seed. Try playing some tough teams next year. Speaking of seeds, I think everyone has the same predictions and rivals.com even agrees with me:

One seeds
UNC
Louisville
UConn
Pitt

Two seeds
Michigan State
Memphis
Duke [boo]
Oklahoma

And my predictons? Well, without seeing the actual brackets all I can say is that the winner has a pretty good chance of being from the Big East. I lean towards UConn, but it's a crazy tournament. I'll post my final four here in the next few days, as well as an actual life-update since that may be what you're actually looking for. you have my love.
