She must hate Texas. It's the only #2 seed not to be predicted to win. Nah, on her broadcast she said she liked Texas, but just needed to put in some upsets. She also said she would be getting a lot of "slack" (she meant flak) from Texas fans for not picking Texas. Well, she is right so far! Miami over NIU, what say you?

Said it right when I saw the matchup on the Selection Show and I'm sticking to it. GCU over WSU first round I don’t think so, as a student at GCU, we are just lucky to be in the tourney

Emily played for Northwestern, and is a Big Ten Network employee. What makes you so surprised?

I also don't think picking Wisconsin to beat Nebraska in the final is really evidence of Big Ten bias. That's what a lot of people have. Now, she did pick the other three Big Ten teams to make the Sweet 16 too, which is more questionable. Especially Minnesota over Creighton.

Well, she is right so far! Miami over NIU, what say you? I assume you mean UNI. My guess is that people will pick Miami about 60/40. Tougher conference, battle tested, etc. It is a tough call, but I'm going with UNI. They have developed a habit of winning.

I kind of think you put both B1G teams in the final or neither of them. Either the B1G is overrated so much that NU and UW are overrated, or Nebraska and Wisconsin are really good

Lots of fun.
I run a very large NCAA mens basketball pool where picking the upsets is the key.
I don't see a lot in the first two rounds but I hope I'm wrong.
That always makes it more fun.

I want a messy upset final 4: Kentuky, Pitt (not an upset but love them), Texas, Oregon I support this non-red Final 4 agenda I want an all red final four, personally. Stanford, Louisville, Wisconsin, Nebraska.

Well, she is right so far! Miami over NIU, what say you? Her real stretch is Minnesota beating Creighton. Minnesota hasn't beaten any half good teams lately.
