If you like March Madness trends, last season was just the third time in the last 27 years that all 2 seeds reached the S16. If you follow, think you almost have to look at St. John's against Arkansas or Kansas. Last few 7/10 seeds to bounce a 2 have come from power conferences.
Yeah horrible draw for St. John's having to play 2 teams that actually have as much or more talent than them in round two.

I started a thread on this a while back
LINK
My lists is down to Auburn, Duke, Florida, & Tennessee
Auburn probably best value currently at +550. I think they beat Florida if they meet in Final Four

Duke continues to be at the top of pretty much any metrics or predictions out there...but are we not concerned about their weak overall schedule? I know they themselves ARE elite but how much stock do we put into their schedule considering the level of competition ?

They have NET & KenPom rankings to do that for us, Duke is #1 in both

Aside from the teams already mentioned I like Grand Canyon and Lipscomb.

Seems like every year someone who has watched approximately 0 minutes of college basketball ends up winning the groups I’m in.

Unless I've skimmed over it I don't see a similar thread already so figured I'd start one. What are some of the 1/2 round games you're thinking upsets? Of course the 12/5 is usually a trendy pick. I feel like I haven't watched near as much NCAAB this year as usual so I'm mostly clueless on my upsets this year.
Drake over Missouri seems to be a somewhat common one I've seen so far. I'm really not sold on Clemson at ALL so I have no qualms taking Mcneese. Vandy and Arkansas as 10s have piqued my interest although a 10 over a 7 isn't really anything to write home about I guess.
Who are some of the real sleepers as double digit seeds I should be looking for?
Shocking.

Missouri is a 6 point favorite. You call that an upset?
What's interesting is the Drake basketball team has 7 players on the roster from MO.

I don't think Drake defeating Mizzou would be a surprising defeat for Mizzou. I think Drake beat Vandy this year and they also won 30 games this season.
