The ACC will have 2 teams in the final four.
There will not be a team seeded 5-16 in the final four.

Mine, according to my bracket, is the ACC will have 0 teams in the Final Four, while the Pac 12 will have 2.

And UNC Wilmington, Nevada, Rhode Island and Middle Tennessee State will all be double-digit seeds in the Sweet 16. And ETSU, Marquette, VCU, Winthrop and Wichita State will be double-digit seeds winning one game.

There's a really large part of me thinking I have a 10% chance of looking like a genius and a 90% chance of donating $$$ to some random friend in our bracket challenge we do every year when mine gets utterly destroyed in about the first half-day of action.

#1: Looking damn fucking good! If UNC gets beat this week, I did it right!

#2: Oh...wow...this is something I said and did. I got a couple of the one-gamers right, but none reached the Sweet 16 thanks to RI self-destructing in the second half.

1st one is toast.
I still think the 2nd one will happen. Only team that worries me is Michigan. Watch Wisconsin and SC win and this one will be fucked too.

Nope. But to be fair, I had them in a play-in game...

Lonzo Ball puts up 50+ assists. Goes back to back 10+ versus UK (win) and UNC (loss).
1/1/2/2 Final Four. No major shocks.
1. In play. I still think that has potential as bestbgame of tournament.
2. In play, especially the 50+ if UCLA makes FF.
3. Nope, but could still get 3 of the 4.
