Made 2 of them yesterday. In the first, I feel like Michigan State will win it all, while I have Florida as national champions in the second.

I hope you're half right, and not your first instinct.

My final 4 are Florida, Iowa State, Wisconsin, and Louisville. I have Florida winning it all.

It's a very interesting bracket this year with some possibly very interesting matchups.

Bold prediction: Florida does not make it past the sweet sixteen.

In which case, my Jayhawks beat the winner of Tulsa/Stephen F. Austin to go to the Final Four, along with Creighton, Michigan State, and Louisville.

That's a very bold prediction. Usually I end up doing a bunch of different brackets every year because I can't pick just one to win because anyone can win it. This year though, although there are interesting games, I feel like certain teams stick out more. Florida is one of them. Statistically one of the best TEAMS in the tournament. Don't have the star power but they have good team play.

Interesting fact: 2012 I created 3 brackets. One of the brackets I was 100% correct for the whole first round and was #1 on espn. I'm sad though because I now can't go back to 2012 to print the bracket out :(. 2013 is as far back as you can go.

How about Kansas without Joel Embiid doesn't make it TO the sweet sixteen. In mine I have them beaten by New Mexico. My final four was Florida, Iowa State, Arizona, and Duke. I have Florida winning it all.

I ask the same question.

Also TragicBronson- I think you are undervaluing KU a lot. Embiid is a big part of the team but Wiggins, Perry Ellis, Tharpe and our other forwards are stacked. New Mexico may be a problem but that is also assuming that they actually make it past the first round.

New Mexico plays a very experienced and good defensive team in Stanford (who happen to have 6 seniors on their team) and I honestly think they will be beating New Mexico. New Mexico has the size advantage for sure but they also had a better roster last year and they lost to the likes of Harvard.
