Personally, I'm pulling for Louisville. If Pitt and UConn still get #1 seeds, L'Ville could be the 3rd BEAST team to get a #1 seed.
L'Ville fans have shown quite a bit of class over the past month and it'd be nice to see the old CUSA team do some more damage.
I like Villanova too, so should they beat louisville today...I'll be pulling for them tomorrow.
Villanova helps our RPI the most since we beat them and played them 3 times.
No amount of recent class makes up for the fact that Louisville alums spit on MU students, and threw beer cans at MU students on their walk home after the Reece Gaines' game in 2003. I hope they lose every game by 50, even if they are playing Wisconsin.
NOVA. They're Catholic. I can't root for Huggins or Pitino, and Syracuse is, well, Syracuse.
NOVA. They are a class act, as is their coach.

+1
I'm also interested to see if Syracuse gets ANY votes....
Here are some other teams to root for:
Washington over Arizona St.
Kentucky over LSU
Syracuse over West Virginia
San Diego State over BYU
Wyoming over Utah
Penn State over Purdue
Michigan over Illinois
USC over UCLA
No question, Nova. I'd have my kid play for Jay Wright anyday. Can't say the same for any of the other coaches.
Yeah, I gotta go with Villanova too. They've always been my second Big East team. Just seem classy and very similar to Marquette, both as a team and an institution.

I had to after this. But I bet it's the only vote they get. My real vote is for Nova since I can't stand Slick Rick or Thuggins and Cuse's bright orange uniforms keep looking more and more fitting.
Are those my only choices?
Sorry, forgot my teal.

Amen man, I still get pissed thinking about that. I mean, I had already spilled on myself, no need for them to do it again.

Class institution and I am always a big believer of if your going to lose, lose to the champions.

Altho this admission may draw some heat: I am a Michigan grad, and it would be nice to see them in the NCAA again.
