Best time of the CBB year is late Feb when the upsets happen.

This week's upset Predictions:

#14 OSU at home over #9 KU

U Dub over #12 Zona at the Lute

UNLV at home over #22 CSU

#11 Georgetown over #8 Syracuse at the Air Conditioner

Stanford over #23 Oregon at the Knight

#22 CSU at home over #16 NM

Xavier at home over #24 VCU

How is the #14 team beating the #9 team, at home, an upset?

I would define a lower ranked team beating one ranked higher as an upset. After their 3 game skid KU seems to have rebounded but I think OSU takes them.

Oklahoma State and UNLV are both favored tonight so I don't really think those would be upsets.

Washington over Arizona would be quite an upset though.  If you're confident it's paying +650. Would be a nice payday.

I think U Dub is due. The Dawgs have played like crap all year

I personally think the best time of the CBB year is the NCAA tournament.  But that's just me.....

You would be wrong.  As we know, rankings (especially voted ranking) do not necessarily indicate which team is more likely to win a particular game.  Look to Vegas.

How did I unignore you, and then get sucked in so easily?  I'm out again.  Ignore.

When a team is favored by Vegas and have a worse rank and win...It is not an upset
