They unveil the brackets a little later today and if you are like me, this is the best time of the year. With all the late upsets in the conference tourney's it makes for a crazy bubble. Good luck to all the mid majors fighting to get it (St. Mary's, Creighton, and San Diego State) and teams like Maryland, Wisconsin, and Arizona... you make me sick that you will steal bids because you are BCS

Haven't decided who I'm going with this year, hopefully there is a good road for some of the Big 12 schools. I have liked Pitt all year though

The Devils D is great and they shoot very well. Only problem is depth. Herb Sendek has really turned the program around.

Herbie has been great for that school. But I'm not buying the Pac-10.

I'm partially on the Big East bandwagon, though I worry how those teams will handle officials from other conferences. If you don't think there is a difference, you haven't watched enough of the Big East. That conference is easily the most physical in the country and if they run into a whistle happy crew, they'll be at a much bigger disadvantage trying to adjust.
