Re: Midwest Region Discussion

Louisville may have gotten a questionable seed (only a spot too low IMO) but they have a great draw. Louisville vs Wichita State is my most anticipated Sweet 16 game.

Michigan overachieved but I can't pick them to come out of this region without McGary. Duke is over-seeded as always though they might make it to the Elite 8. Michigan vs Duke should be fun if that comes to fruition.

Regional Final: Louisville (4) over Michigan (2)

Potential Louisville/Kentucky and Duke/Michigan in the regional in Indy? Yikes.

Re: Midwest Region Discussion

L'ville vs Duke in this region with Duke headed to the final four. Can't wait to see the Wichita State vs Kansas State/Kentucky game.

I'm assuming you mean non-biased people? I'm picking them over Wichita State but I'm a Kentucky fan so... Kentucky has to get by Kansas State first though which won't be easy.

I have Wichita State running the gauntlet.

Re: Midwest Region Discussion

My Sweet 16 Teams for the Midwest are: Wichita State/Louisville and Duke/Michigan. I think Louisville makes it to the Final Four, but I think the winner of WSU/Louisville goes to the Final Four.

Re: Midwest Region Discussion

Gah, Kentucky and Wichita State will be interesting. I think Kentucky is way tougher than Wichita by a long shot. So in theory they could almost just feed the ball inside. However, Kentucky has played very shaky at times and I think Wichita could use that to their advantage. But Kentucky's gotta get by K-State first and that won't be easy

I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one leaning that way. I feel like the Louisville bandwagon is getting too strong and Wichita State is a very good team. This region is very weird, I'm looking at my bracket and now I'm leaning towards 3 1 seeds in the Final Four which I've never had before. It wouldn't be a surprise if Kansas State beat Kentucky. I have Michigan-Duke in the Sweet 16 with a Wichita State-Michigan regional final.

I definitely agree that UL's bandwagon is getting too strong but I still took Louisville because I think Harrell is such an x-factor right now that it'll be enough to get UL past Wichita State.

I can't wait to see VanVleet vs Russ Smith & Chris Jones.

Kansas State vs Kentucky will be a heck of a game. Seems like everyone is looking past it to UK vs WSU but that might not happen.

Yeah, I don't think it's a given at all that Kentucky gets out of the first round. They're such an up and down team and Kansas State isn't a slouch.

Re: Midwest Region Discussion

Any way Texas/Arizona State upset Michigan? Don't know much about the two teams.

Re: Midwest Region Discussion

I don't see Wichita State making it out of this region. Kentucky might take them out.

Louisville got jobbed on their seed and I think they'll come out of this one.
