Michigan a 3 seed in the West
Love me some Xavier as the 1 seed. Love to have 2 seed UNC. Sets up perfectly to avenge the ugly game in Chapel Hill earlier this year. Couldn't have been much better other than MSU getting to play in Detroit and Michigan being stuck in Wichita. So pumped for Thursday, Go Blue!
I know I need a small vacation...., but it don't look like rain,
And if it snows that stretch down south won't ever stand the strain
My prediction---
Leaders and Best...
Champtions of the West.
No, Hatter, it is not what you think...
Two of the four "experts" picked UM to go to the championship game, but losing to Villanova.
UM & Beilein seem to be getting some respect from national media.
I'd bet my house the winner of Michigan/UNC reaches the final four.
Tar Heel fans better be ready. This isnt the same UM team the Tar Heels played four months ago. UM is red-hot, playing better D, is loaded with confidence, won its conference tournament AND the new game with UNC will be on a neutral court (gigantic.)
I like Michigan 77-73 over UNC during the sweet sixteen.
I dont have a problem with our bracket at all. Looking at msu's first two games is a cakewalk. Considering they have the kuxury of playing in Detroit, i think they should've drawn houston as the 6 instead of TCU. But oh well.
According to Vegas, Michigan is the fifth most likely team to win the national championship. North Carolina? 7th most likely:

Let's do this!!
GO BLUE!!
Going in to the tournament i thought they were a 3 seed. Im glad they were .
I think all the ESPN guru's picked MSU to win it all, including Dick Vitale.
Sparty is grossly over rated and over seeded again. They will choke like they have the past 2 seasons. Sick of the tournament committee and ESPN licking Izzo's heiny all the time.
I’m interested in knowing, and someone likely already has the Data ready to analyze-
But are our four consecutive wins in the BTT more difficult/impressive than what we would accomplish to win the first four in this tourney, even if we faced the best team at each stage?
I’m curious how these situations compare.
So help me with this. We get a #3 seed in the West. Now follow along. We beat Purdue in the Big 10 title game; paddled their asses for matter of fact and they got a #2 seed in the Midwest even though they didn't win the regular season or conference tournament titles. Then you have over rated Sparty a #3 seed and basically a home game in the Midwest as well. Sparty in the last 2 tournaments has been grossly over seeded. I hope they both choke while Michigan breezes to the West Region title and a title game against Villanova. Yes folks, Michigan vs Villanova for all the marbles. GO BLUE!!
That is my title game as well. So if you're crazy, you aren't alone.

I would maybe go to Wichita excepting that I am currenttly scheduled to guide with a kickass snowcat operation on the Continental Divde of Colorado? For those that appreciate such a dilemma I just simply say GO MOTHERFUCKING BLUE!!!! Bring it Ullr. I feel it. COME ON TEAM!!!! Fuck yes. What is life withiout passion? Find it. So much gratitude for it's presence everywhere right now...so fortunate. We all have our moments.
Fucking one possession at a time. It happens.
Beat the Grizz. GO BLUE!!!
Watched every moment of tournament analysis I could find last night. Some things I learned:
Virginia, Cinncinnati, Gonzaga (yes Gonzaga), Michigan, Villanova, Purdue, Kansas and Sparty are definitely the favorites to reach the elite 8.
My final four: Viginia, Michigan, Villanova and Michigan State.
I have Virginia defeating Villanoa 64-60 to win the whole damn thing.

I for one am pretty excited about this. If anyone needs any info on Wichita let me know!
