So, Bracketology is projecting 6 SEC teams for the tournament right now...the hell?

I'd give them four:

Florida
Kentucky
Vanderbilt
Georgia

MAYBE Alabama. Tennessee? God no.

In related news, the college I went to is looking like they're going to get into the tournament again! Yeah! Thank God for Kenneth Faried.

Kenneth Faried is the all-time NCAA Division I leader in rebounds now, beating out Tim Duncan. His draft stock has jumped from first pick in the second round to just out of being lottery in the first. Really happy for the guy.

Morehead State made the NCAA tournament for the second time in three years...and only the fourth time in school history! Go, alma mater!

I hope they get matched up with BYU in the first round. I really do. Jimmer Fredette wouldn't get any of those second chance opportunities if Kenneth Faried had anything to say about it!

Also, hoping Florida can pull in a 3 seed. And Kentucky may get a 4 or 5. Maybe.

I can realistically see Florida being an elite 8 team.

Lunardi has Morehead State matched up with Florida in the first round of his bracketology. I am depressed. I can't root for both.

My Final Four, now that brackets are out:

Ohio State
Texas
Kansas
Florida (was torn between them and Pitt, but it'll be a killer matchup in that elite 8 game.)

So glad my Morehead and Richmond upsets both worked out! And I've still got all 16 of my sweet 16 teams - usually I've already lost at least two at this point.

In the words of Charlie Sheen: WINNING.

I don't know if I mentioned this a few pages back or not, but I'm taking Duke to win it all. I didn't do a bracket cause it's basically all luck and I never win, but I think Duke has the best shot to take it all. Best group of guards in the nation, by far the best coach in all of college hoops, and they have been there before. Can't teach experience and Duke has a ton of depth as well. I think the only chance at beating Duke is hoping to catch them on a bad shooting day.
