I think the possible Virginia vs Michigan State match-up is the toughest game for me to pick a winner. I picked Virginia to win, but Michigan State can easily win that game too. However, I got Oklahoma losing in the 1st round. There's no way they win that region at all.

Nova seems like a team ripe for upset.. lots of question marks.. They've looked damn good but they played a horrible schedule (52nd ranked, just ahead of Nebraska and George Mason.) Jay Wright's made the tournament 12 times and only made it to the elite 8 twice though and historically coaches with that kind of resume actually underachieve their seeds expected number of wins.

Of note:
They were upset last year in a 2-7 match up.
Last time they made the final four they were actually a 3 seed.
Last time they were a #1 seed (2006) they lost in the elite 8 to a 3 seed Florida.

OU is seeded three seeds too high.

Michigan State

UVA is going down early, as is Villanova, Kansas and Gonzaga.

NO THEY ARE NOT.
DUE.
I just hate when people think or say that such and such a team is due because its an odd year in which the moon was full on a tuesday, or they saw an eagle land on grandma's porch.

based on what?
have you seen them? They are not very good.
ANY TEAM CAN WIN IT ALL, BUT MSU IS NOT "DUE".
THERE IS NO SUCH THING.
NO ONE IS DUE. GET OVER IT.

They've been much better as of late. And 2/3 of UVA's losses have been recent.

Teams that are 'not very good' don't win 24 games and go the conference title game.

Well that is relative since they lost to Texas Southern early in the season. They still lost at home to a slightly over .500 Minnesota team and couldn't score in overtime against Wisconsin.

Most of my brackets rely on MSU and Izzo, hoping they don't flake out one of the games. UVA can't be trusted, neither can OU. Villanova hasn't lost since mid-January!

Great regional, should be interesting.

That's smart. Historically, coaches with his resume (at least 10 NCAAT trips and 4 Elite 8s) exceed their seeds expectation but a great amount.

Their offense and defensive efficiency are outstanding but against MSU I think Izzo wins.

OU is a joke too.
