Watch out for American. They beat Maryland this year and could be primed to pull another upset. That said I am going with Saint Joe's. This is a solid team and has played a lot of tournament caliber teams in the A-10. I think this bracket poses some interesting upset possibilities with #15 American and #14 Boise St. Louisville has been up and down all year and could be gotten if it takes Boise State too lightly.

It pains me to say it, considering I am an OU fan, but my Sooners are so damn streaky. If they get decent guard play they will win the game comfortably. If Austin Johnson shoots NBA three-point air balls all day, then St. Joes can win for sure.

I think that St. Joseph's(hot team) might win over an inconsistent OU squad.

Also, don't overlook the Butler v. South Alabama matchup - in what I believe will be an awesome game to watch. Remember, some experts do not believe S. Alabama should be in the tournament. That could be a major motivator for them...watchout Butler, you'll be playing against a team with a chip on their shoulder.

No one thoght George Mason deserved an at large bid 2 years ago either.

St.Joe without a doubt will beat Oklahoma who should be a #8 seedin my mind IND. and ARK. are better teams.

um, if my memory serves me correctly OU beat Arkansas, oh yeah I was at that game they have a 6-7 record against 13 of the 64 teams in the "Dance" two of there loses came to 2 different #1 seeds (Memphis and Kansas), 3 other loses to the 2nd seeded Texas Longhorns, and the other 2 loses came to USC and K-State.  They are streaky but when they are on, they are awesome. St. Joe lacks an inside presence and that is where the Sooners are best.  OU will dominate the boards and the inside, St. Joe's cinderella dreams will be shaken and forgotten.

St. Joe's wins 1st round easy-maybe comes up with 2nd round upset. I think either IU or ND will upset UNC in 2nd or 3rd round

We all missed the bus on Siena huh? WTF happened to Vandy, they forget the game was tonight or did they get wasted during the day because they thought Siena was a walk over??? I picked St. Joes like everyone else but that didn't materialize. Thats why its called March Madness, right.... GO HEELS!

I couldn't have said it better TarCane44.  Does anyone know anything about Siena?  How good are these kids?  I guess we play OK next but not sure who after that if we win because I think Tenn is going to have trouble with Butler.  Antway GO CARDS looking forward to playinf UNC.
