Honestly I don't like any of the 12's to beat 5's this year but I do like Murray State over a very overrated Vanderbilt team in the first round.

I know you're joking but Temple will dominate Cornell. Just because they almost beat Kansas doesn't mean anything because they still lost.

I wish I were joking. Trust me...

Cornell is a good three point shooting team but Temple is one of the best at defending the three, plus Dunphy won't be taking any Ivy schools lightly considering he once dominated that league.

UTEP over Butler wouldn't surprise me. Neither would Siena over Purdue (without Hummel)

I like #6 Xavier upsetting a higher seeded Butler squad in the regional final. That is my favorite upset of the bracket. Should do wonders for the home and home series and the rivalry too.

My brackets are typically upset happy. And my happiest upset this year is Texas A&M over Duke in the Sweet 16.

Siena. I think they have a dandy team again this year.

Siena. I think they have a dandy team again this year.

2nd this...and they are playing a team that would not have made the tournament had it not been for having Robbie Hummel for most of the year. Prime for the upset

ODU overe ND
Murry State over Vanderbilt
Sienna over Purdue
Richmond over Villanova

Just the ones I picked that I can think of off the top of my head.

I honestly dont buy the Cornell over Temple. Temple was grossly underseeded. Dunphy wont let his mentee take him out and Temple defends the 3 great.

Cornell had a couple pretty bad losses.

I'm definitely picking Richmond over Nova.

I dunno about Vandy, I go here and see them a lot, and they don't always live up to expectations come tourney time, and they lack toughness....bah ok I'll probably pick against them. I just hate Ogilvy's blond tips.

Both Temple and Cornell got screwed in the seedings. Temple ranked #12 in the AP and #10 RPI - They should have been a 3 seed. Cornell has been ranked all season long. They deserved a higher seed. That said, Temple beats Cornell.

Florida lost 4 of last 5. Should not have made tourney this year much less a 10 seed.

I have UTEP winning two over Butler and presumably Vandy but I wouldn't be surprised to see them lost in the first round to Murray State. Even they can make the tournament now that Mick is gone.

Yeah I just thought Temple would show up.

I got ODU over ND and Murray State over Vandy.

I missed on Sienna as Purdue has been playing great without Hummel.

Richmond obviosuly didnt beat Nova, but I knew Nova was ripe for an upset the way they had been playing.

Good call on Cornell.
