View Full Version : Post your Final Four and darkhorse
Glenn 03-16-2006, 12:32 PM If a mod wants to merge this into the NCAA Tourney thread, then go ahead.
Rather than being a discussion thread about the tournament in general, this would be a thread just for your Final Four prediction and drop one darkhorse in there.
I don't follow college ball very much at all, but I spent some time doing some research and drawing from the little that I do know and here is what I came up with.
Texas
Kansas
UConn
Villanova
Texas over UConn in the finals.
For my darkhorse, I've got (7) Marquette getting to the Elite 8 and losing to Kansas.

Gonzaga
Michigan State
Nova
Nova winning it all over Texas.
I'd say MSU is my darkhorse. I don't know if they would really be a darkhorse considering their history, but they are a 6 seed. I really don't like being a complete homer when it comes to my bracket, but if you're gonna pick a big upset, it might as well be your team. I picked them last year over UK and Duke. Hope it works out this time around.
If MSU doesn't count as a darkhorse, then I've got George Washington. They were one of my last minute changes. I picked them to upset Duke, eventually lose to Texas.

Gonzaga
Uconn
OSU
Uconn over Duke
Darkhorse: I don't really have any. I have some big upsets (Montana over Nevada, Whichita State over Tenn, MSU over UNC, Wisc Mill over OU), but nothing more than a round really.
Glenn 03-16-2006, 04:52 PM As I posted up above, I picked Texas to win it all.
Just wondering, has a school ever won the football and basketball championships in the same year?

Texas has already won the title in baseball and football this year so it would be pretty amazing if they won the NCAA.

Damn Arch, what are you smokin'? [smilie=cigar.jpg] Apparently the same stuff that I am. I picked the exact same Final Four, Championship game, and Champion.
My only difference would b my darkhorse. I've got LSU beating Duke and going to the Elite 8.
MOLA1 03-19-2006, 08:33 PM Gonzaga - Duke
Villanova - UConn
UConn over Duke
I don't really have a darkhorse. I have FLA going to the 8...lol. Darkhorse! (3)
All favorites this year for the most part. It isn't like me. Whateva though.
Darth Thanatos 03-27-2006, 02:24 PM One out of four isn't bad.
