Predicting Louisville-Miami Final
After a night of exhaustive research, soothsaying, head against wall banging and various other activities of frustration....I present my 2013 NCAA Mens basketball bracket.
So...this year....I am predicting a Louisville-Miami final in Atlanta.
First Four games
North Carolina A&T (19-16) vs Liberty (15-20)
Liberty pulled a major surprise to get into the dance from the Big South conference and A&T benefited from upsets to win the MEAC tourney title.
NC A&T by 14
Boise State (21-10) vs LaSalle (21-9)
The winner of this one gets a date with Kansas State. Both teams have shown flashes but LaSalle may be a bit more polished at the moment.
LaSalle by 6
Middle Tennessee (28-5) vs St. Mary's (Ca) (27-6)
This one would fit as a normal bracket game and could be the best of the First Four games. The winner has a solid chance against Memphis in the main draw.
St. Mary's by 3
LIU-Brooklyn (20-13) vs James Madison (20-14)
Indiana looms on the horizon for the winner of this one.
JMU by 8
Midwest Region
I'm going with Louisville to get by Michigan State in this one.
West Region
Picking a Big 10 rematch with Wisconsin losing again to Ohio State.
South Region
Calling an upset in this region...picking VCU to do it again over Georgetown.
East Region
Giving Miami the edge over Indiana in the regional final.
Once the Final Four starts... I'll take Louisville over Ohio State and Miami over VCU.
Champion
Most will do a double take when they see the Miami Hurricanes as NCAA Champions ... in basketball.
Back with more picks through the rounds....
