Going to have to pick Nova.  An off game shooting and it's over.  They don't have the bigs that the other teams do.

Can't see Wisconsin losing to Oregon. My guess is Duke in the Sweet 16.

I voted UW.  I don't think any lose to the sweet 16.  I don't like UW matching up with UNC.  I could also see Nova losing in the sweet 16.

Duke and Kentucky will be solid.

Yep. UW, Arizona, Nova, Duke UVA could beat UK. Doubt it happens, but all those teams are very good

Hate to say it boys but Wisconsin ain't losing until the final game and then only if its Kentucky they are playing.  They are playing too well to lose to anyone other then a completely dominant team and the only team that fits that description is Kentucky.  Wisconsin makes too few mistakes and at this point is just too tough.  Getting the 1 seed to keep them away from Kentucky pretty much puts them in the final game in my opinion.

Unfortunately, Nova.

 Let's see....the SF Giants (a team I hate) won the World Series. The Deflatriots (a team I hate more) won the Super Bowl. You just know the Vadgers are going to win this damn thing.

Badgers have had there problems in the tourny thru the years, bad shooting day,running into a hot team. They aren't
the only team that plays well together. This is the best team I've ever seen Bo have and if hes gonna win it all,its now.

I think UW is better than everyone but Duke and Kentucky, but they could lose in the 2nd round, S16, E8, F4 or they could win it all. They should have lost today, they struggled to beat Michigan 2 days ago. Also, they would meet Kentucky in the F4 if both are still alive, not the championship game.

the bracket I saw says UW would face Kentucky in semifinals not finals.

If they both make it to the Final Four, Becky would play Kentucky to get to the title game.

They should have lost today....to the Big Ten's 3rd place team who has been not up to their usual standards.  The Big Ten is the 4th rated league this year.  How often have they been challenged?  By Duke at home, and they lost.

I thought it's a guard's game?  ?-(

Agree that Nova is the first one going out.

Not to speak for him, but I think he means since Nova has the best guards among the one seeds, why do you have them going out first?

1. they won't play kentucky in the final game.

2. michigan state had the game won today about three times, including a terrible missed call by the refs.

Except they play Kentucky in the final 4.

Just a hunch.  NC State scares me a bit for them, but they should find a way to hold off the Wolfpack in a tight contest.  Louisville is the one that I think knocks them out.

A big portion depends on the refs. If Wis gets away with fouling like they do in B1G games, they'll be much more successful
