*NO UPSETS* there will be no 12-13-14-15 upsets this yr

Will not happen. The tournament is stacked too heavy with the big teams in low seeds. They got it right this yr and it just so happens the mismatches are going to be in the elite 8 and final 4 but there still will be 1 and 2 seeds in there.

Conference championships had a big role in this and the dumb play in games.

Again. You will get maybe a 9 over 8, 10 or 11 winning 1st round but after that its all fave until elite 8.

Watch out when Indy (12) plays st Mary’s (5) in Portland.

There will always be upsets. That's why it's called March Madness

@MrIowa

 You must be new around here cause their will be upsets.that’s why they call it march madness but goodluck you will need it

@jdubb2584

 not always. and only when they put teams in wrong seeds. 

This is going to be best bet on faves tournament since 2016

Interesting. My gut tells me the same thing. 

…2nd and 3rd round dogs will show up. 

@MrIowa

 If you are right, then expect the dogs to cover ats big time. No one is going away quietly this time of year.

And there are a ton of different styles in the tournament, that's what makes it so volatile. Metrics can only lead you so far on paper, what happens on the court is another story.

Also, basketball isn't like football. Any lower seeds can get hot from the 3s or cold shooting from the favorites, that can result in upsets

         Some eye-opening lines out there.   4-seed Providence only giving 2 to 13-seed S. Dakota St.    4-seed Arkansas only a 5pt fav over 13-seed Vermont.  Someone's going to get chopped down early.

This is the guy that enters a March Madness pool, and takes all chalk, including all the 8s over the 9s.

then explain 12 seeded richmond beating iowa

reading this initial thread statement hurts my brain like when i listen to Biden or Kamala Harris talk

@MoPinkie

I will give you 4-1 on that bet . Deal ?

No upsets 

too many upsets in March madness 

Uh oh a 12 just took out a 5 seed

I can only assume your bracket is all the way busted

That prediction lasted a long time. Ever seen the NCAA tournament before? Hello?

And how appropriate it was that Iowa lost, Mr Iowa

MrIowa jinxed his own team! Wowsers!

@Spideroger

 lol

well maybe 5/12 Richmond
