March Madness (NCAA Tourney 2007)...

Not sure how many NCAA Basketball Fans there are on the AR board but I thought I'd find out....I filled out my bracket today and was curious what you all thought as a possible outcome....?

Who is the odds-on favorite to win the Nat'l Championship?

Who is the most likely team to be upset in the tourney and by who?

Who is the Cinderella team this year in the Big Tournament?

Does Arkansas have a legitimate chance to beat the Trojans? (hopefully they score less points then their football team has the past few years or they'll be HARD to beat...hah!)

Do we have any alumni from any of the schools in the tournament this year?

Who do you have going to the Final Four this year?

-Hopefully these will be some good discussion threads...I myself am looking forward to it...I believe it's going to be Florida, UNC, or Kansas winning it all!-

Minnowman!

I like florida to win it all as bad as it hurts to say that. Heard that about scoring less than the football team.

I hear that...I am just wondering if Florida can pull the "repeat"...seems to be near impossible in the College game? Good luck...thx for your reply. MM

Repeat is just about impossible in college hoops, but Florida does not strong. Go Heels!

I have not followed CBB as closely this year as in the past. It kinda swings with how well the Hogs are playing and over the past couple of years its just not been as exciting as in the years past. I think the Florida team has a great chance with their experience and the challenge of getting two, but it is very unlikely. The Ohio State team might be the one to beat, but they also can be beaten by a good guard type team who can knock down their shots. Arkansas should be able to get the first game, but it would not suprise me a bit if they come out flat and start settleing for the open three's. I hope they can take advantage of their size and build a lead early. Go Hogs!

I hate the Gaytors! but I think they have a good shot..I think the most overhyped team is OSU with the 40 year old looking 18 year old!:D I say Memphis beats them, and maybe tennessee...

I'm a Nebraska guy and rooting for KU is really tough. Son went to KState, but he's a good guy anyway:D Sure thought they would make the big dance, but don't care for their coach--don't like their nutcake football coach either!:(
Think Florida has finally woke up, Roy has the Tar Heels playing well, glad to see Duke down, but think KU is going to be tough.
Just enjoy the tournament, may have to turn down the sound if the screamer/grabber is broadcasting!

They built a lead early I guess you can say....what was it 3 or 4 to nothing there for a minute or two, after that, it ALL CHANGED! Oh well, Go Hogs! They made it further then my Sooners did (haha, not even in the NIT)....MM

Well, as quick as you said it...we are about to find out....Tennessee will have their shot later this week...I'll be curious to see how this one pans out....?! Go Jayhawks! (if they win I get 400 bucks) MM

The Tarheels have a "DIAPER DANDY" in Tyler Hansborough as ole' Dicky V. would say....good luck to the Jayhawks they were my pick for Natty Champs. I cannot wait to see the rest of this tournament, all the overtime thrillers and double overtime games have been amazing, great time of the year to watch College Basketball, thanks for the reply CrappieHusker!
