What upsets do people have?

[NineOneSeven]

I am in a pool that provides extra points for seeds advancing beyond rounds corresponding to its seed . It's an interesting concept.

In that bracket I have (ignoring the 8/9 matchup)-

Davidson over UK
Loyola over Miami
Texas over Nevada
SD State over OSU
San Diego St over Houston
Providence over Texas am AND UNC
SU over TCU
NM State over Clemson AND Auburn
Butler over Arkansas
SBU over Florida

 

[Cusefan0307]

Rhode Island over Duke
Davidson over UK
Cuse over TCU
NM State over Clemson
Providence over UNC

 

[pearl31]

yeah Davidson over UK seems like the obvious one... too obvious?

 

[Alsacs]

Stone Cold Stephen F. Austin over Texas Tech is my biggest round 1 upset.

 

[br801]

Davidson over Kentucky
Loyola-Chicago over Miami
South Dakota St. over Ohio St.

[721Comstock]

Clemson will lose. Haven't been the same since (forget his name) got hurt.
Cuse in first 2 games.
Auburn isn't very good.

 

[pearl31]

it's weird, though...
the seemingly easy upset picks are for those teams like Clemson, etc that have struggled down the stretch - but then I can recall many instances over the years where such teams put it back together for the tourney

 

[MattOB]

Davidson over Kentucky.

New Mexico State beating Clemson and Auburn to make it to the sweet sixteen.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Stone Cold Stephen . Austin over Texas Tech is my biggest round 1 upset.

Hope not, they are my survivor pick for tomorrow

Healthy Evans is big

[NineOneSeven]

...healthier

 

[rrlbees]

SU over ASU
SU over TCU
SU over MSU
SU over Duke
SU over Kansas
SU over Villanova
SU over Virginia

That’s all I got.

 

[HOFCeluck]

Davidson over Kentucky is one of those upsets everyone is picking and fans are sooooo thirsty to see happen. And that's why Davidson will get boatraced.

I have FSU over X and Providence over the Aggies. And Cuse. Obviously.

 

[ClamOtto]

Marshall over Wichita St.
Bonnies over Florida
Georgia State over Cincinnati (Ron Hunter!)

Well, let's hope ASU isn't!!,

Truth, had the same thought myself when perusing the game.

 

[Cusefan0307]

SU over ASU
SU over TCU
SU over MSU
SU over Duke
SU over Kansas
SU over Villanova
SU over Virginia

That’s all I got.

Toughest path in tournament history. 5 KenPom top 10 teams.

 

[syr14]

Georgia State over Cincy
South Dakota State over OSU
San diego State over Houston
Cuse over TCU (obviously)

I have Texas in the S16 as my only double digit seed.

I could see NM State beating Clemson but that one's a pretty trendy pick so I stayed away. Loyola Chicago also a trendy pick but I have Miami meeting Zona in the E8.

Davidson has been playing very well but they spent a lot of energy last weekend to get here.

They've definitely been playing great ball.

 

[Jasoncuse]

The only ones I'm confident in are Loyola and New Mexico St.

But I like San Diego State, Texas (to sweet 16) and Davidson too, and think there's a great shot of Charleston over Auburn and then Butler over Purdue.

Penn vs Kansas really has me intrigued...Would never pick it, but...

 

[cuseattle]

SU over ASU
SU over TCU
SU over MSU
SU over Duke
SU over Kansas
SU over Villanova
SU over Virginia

That’s all I got.

Still time to switch out UVA.

Loyola is a great story. Getting a lot of interest tho as just a 2 point dog.

For any old schoolers out there they remind me of the NY Knicks circa 1970 sans the professional talent. The ball moves beautifully to find the open man, they can all shoot and play very solid defense. Their two guards played together in HS in Kansas and went 94-6 for a couple of state titles.
