So much for that Kansas/Nova final I had. I guess I will just watch golf now.

I'd like to know .. every year, there's a team that 50-80% of the world picks to win .. this year, it was Kansas. I think one of the brackets I'm in, 80% of the people picked Kansas.

I'd like to know .. in each of the last 10-15 years, how often has the consensus pick actually won the NC? I'm guessing it's less than a third.

Which means .. when filling out your bracket, NEVER pick the consensus pick to win.

Guess Nova and GT in the final four isn't so good. As I was filling out my brackets I kept leaning to BE team and kept thinking is that because I'm more familiar with them than others or are they good, guess it's familiarity.
