I posted this elsewhere, but I think my days of picking all 1/2 seeds are over. It paid off in 2008 (picked all 1 seeds, finished 1st out of 700 brackets in our pool), but it's killed me since.

Looking like that will still get you 3/4 Final Four teams this year, not bad odds.

I picked Arizona in the lgp pool and Wisconsin at work. I still think Kentucky wins but figured everybody would pick them so having a different champion would be the better play.

At this point I'm rooting for whoever is playing against Kentucky, Duke, and NC State.

Yah I did the same. Picking Kentucky, you have to have a damned near perfect bracket to win a sizable pool.

Yikes, already 16-2. Even Hampton kept it close longer than this...

I'm rooting for Kentucky, and not because I picked them to win.


I always root for greatness whenever possible. An undefeated season would be absolutely remarkable.


Edit except when the Patriots were involved in 07

What? I'm not gonna go post on a Kentucky forum about how much I love them. I don't have a dog in college sports because Stony Brook is terrible so I more root for things to happen then teams.

Penguins, Broncos (were terrible pre-Peyton) and Red Sox (terrible last year)

And Arsenal for soccer but my interest is vague post-Henry

Trust me, I was a fan of each of these teams by the year 2000

I'm not a Kentucky fan but I can't decide which I'd rather see. Win it all or them go 39-0 and then lose in the Championship game. I'd probably enjoy either way.

Legit had no idea the famed Hoosiers were the last undefeated team. This is fun.
