Mine is 14 Eastern Washington over 3 Kansas

I think Kansas is over seeded based on their name, plus they had to drop out of the Big 12 tourney bc of Covid so they may have some rust

Eastern Washington can light it up, won their conference, and has won 14/15.

I like your pick. I have that same pick as well as -

13 Ohio over 4 Virginia and

8 LSU over 1 Michigan.

The biggest challenge for me was - I like several teams in the Michigan bracket - Colorado, Alabama, Texas and LSU, while the opposite was the case for the Illinois bracket. It doesn't look as formidable. I'm not seeing the teams that I think could make a run... so it was hard for me to find a 2, or 3 or whatever to make the Final 4.

Also have Ohio. Have a couple of 12s over 5s. UC Santa Barbara and Winthrop. Have UNC over Baylor in 2nd round. UNC has been playing better and Baylor has fallen off a little after the COVID pauses

I'm not being a homer but this just isn't a smart pick. Colgate has played 5 teams the entire season. All of them were god awful as well.

They may keep it close but I just don't see it happening.

One edge they have on your hogs is tournament experience... they tested Tennessee a few years back.

I won't be shocked if its a 5 point game with 5 minutes to play. I have Texas Tech moving to the sweet 16 anyway, so I just went ahead and picked the upset.

Ohio is going to set the pace vs Virginia and outshoot them

I actually picked Ohio too.
Definitely hedging against teams who recently had Covid. Not being able to practice is definitely not a good thing
