Who are you leaning towards picking as your champion in your NCAA bracket?

Usually this time of year, I’m pretty set on a champion pick regardless of how the bracket shapes up. Not so sure this year. I’m sick of Gonzaga screwing me over.

I think I’m leaning Purdue? They have a stud guard and 7 foot 4 guy who isn’t a total stiff which is rare. But they haven’t looked great in quite a few games so I’m not very convinced.

It’s a toss up this year. It really will depend on how the bracket falls out.

It ain't gonna be Gonzaga. Damn, if that's the consensus #1 team, then it's a sad state of CBB.

All of the top 4 SEC teams look like they'd physically manhandle that squad on a neutral floor.

Purdue’s defense is terrible. Since 2002, no team that won the NC had a defensive efficiency rating of under 22 (was 20 before Baylor won last season). Purdue’s current defensive ranking is 106!!

Auburn, UCLA, Baylor, and Arizona are the likeliest candidates if you don’t like Gonzaga. I think Kentucky is in that mix too

What happened to the Butler program? Guess it was all the coach.

Won't make the S16 imo. UCLA & USC will be prime candidates for the 5 v 12 upsets

Yep, they will play all games in North Carolina and get the weakest bracket. Basically just like every year.

Well the networks are hoping for a sweet send off for coach K and the ncaa will do everything they can to get them there.

You can almost never go wrong picking a team with blue in their school colors.
