I have more respect for Tom Izzo than probably any other coach, but I have Marquette beating them. I like their path.
 
I also have Marquette along with Syracuse, Kentucky, and North Carolina. Unfortunately, I just had to change my champion to Carolina.
I would take some solace seeing Kentucky bow out early...
 
Hell to the No, Forget marquette

I got Syracuse in the Final Four and thats all that matters. Because were going to rally together and win the Ship

and Coach Boeheim will get on that podium and give a big to all the ppl in the media who tried to take us down
 
prepare to be disappointed

I'll save all of my disappointment for when/if Syracuse gets knocked out. usually my sheet of integrity has blown up by the end of the first weekend, so LoUisville getting bumped off wouldn't faze me at all.
 
Missouri is a way better version of Marquette. DJO adn Crowder could combine for 45 and Mizzou will still win by double digits.

My original FF was Syracuse, UNC, Baylor and Marquette. I've since replaced SU with Ohio State and also changed my champ from SU to UNC.

nah, Missouri is the same exact team... except a lot better. They stumble there.
 
I had no intention of putting Marquette in the FF, but as I filled out my bracket, it just kinda happened.

I'll root against them every game, but I do think they've got a shot.

Offensively ya. They also have the worst defense of any high seed, and nobody other than Duke is even close.
 
Nope. L'Ville was too quick for them...and Missou is even quicker plus they shoot lights out.
 
Did the committee just stuff every school that starts with M in the West?

I have Marquette in the Final 4, but that's a tough run. Possible Murray State, possible Mizzou, possible Michigan State or Memphis or Louisville (close enough to M).
 
I also had Marquette, along with UNC, Kentucky, and Syracuse. Yes, I left Syracuse in there, because there was a time when we were without Fab and plenty of folks on here said we'd find a way to win. I was critical of people being overly optimistic all season due to our (relatively) soft schedule this year, but now I am reversing field because I have a feeling with all this team has been through that something magical is going to happen in this tournament. I guess we will have to wait and see. Enjoy this tournament my friends, each Syracuse win will be sweeter from all the team and it's fans have been through this season. I could be wrong about Marquette, but I like their path, maybe more so than ours.
 
Not just no, but hell no on Marquette. But then my FF are Cuse, Uconn, Ville and Carolina..hey they call it March MADNESS for a reason.
 
..well on the ESPN Tourney Challenge you get 7 brackets. So on two I do have Marquette making it. Marquette has two dudes who play very well and they gave 'Cuse all we could handle before falling. Might also add I still have 'Cuse in all of my brackets...go 'Cuse!!!!
 
just like Pitt, Marquette will lose the first game the refs don't let them get away with their usual clutch/grab tactics.
