Hate that you think so. If we don't hit our shots.....very possible. Ducks haven't seen this kind of defense I don't think.

Let's Hear your 1st Round Upsets!!!!
Oregon over Bucky
*Defensive battle, I?ll take the team who?s more athletic and playing better
UC Irvine over K State
*No Dean Wade? UC Irvine can grind with the best. I think UC Irvine wins regardless. K State can go cold and strait from 3, don?t like it
Murray St over Marquette
*Wojo can?t coach. Marquette runs the same predictable offense for 40 minutes.
Nevada and Buffalo in the Sweet 16
*Caroline will be tough for Michigan to handle. Love the 23.5 average age of Nevada
*Buffalo can stroke it and score with the best of them. Caroline will be the difference again because Buffalo struggles against teams with good big me .
Iowa over Cincinnati
*Reaching here, but Cincinnati is awful when Cumberland isn?t scoring. Offense too streaky. I think Iowa matches up well with Cincy
Seton Hall over Wofford
*Just taking the better and more athletic team. Seton Hall will prob be favored in Vegas.

Only thing I believe is really questionable is Iowa as Idiots Out Wondering Around have been awful for weeks now. I have to believe the Bearcats manhandle them. Iowa was BRUTAL down the stretch.
I love the rest of your assessments and was thinking the same thing on each of them... Not certain on Seton Hall yet as Wofford should beat them IMO.
Teams which won their conference tournaments are always on UPSET alert as they are kids and coming off such an emotional high and tough to focus again for another tournament. So I always check short favorites in this situation. Don't see a lot of other dogs other than people mentioned honestly, but will have to research.
gjn i can?t help but like asu (partially along the same line of thinking) but also due to the fact that i think they are very talented
obviously there is something slightly wrong with them (hence the bad losses) but if they play well there is no way sju beats them imo - feels fishy though
any input?

Sorry
Late to this but yes I like ASU over sju
😮
Mostly because sju sucked
Was all over buffalo ml todsy and small to -5 as figure they'd run ASU out of gym
Like uw today and ore sun over Irvine (who I loved today)
Then....if ore vs uva....similar teams and tough matchup...can see game in 50's late with ore in striking distance.
I'll admit I haven't seen them play much, but they're good. I wouldn't sell them short vs Virginia either.
Well Iowa came to play and cost me a bunch with Cincy ML... Had most of the other mentioned upsets... UC-Irvine is still dangerous IMO as they are a great team... Liberty is also a solid team which would scare anyone but face a great #4 seed in Virginia Tech.
