Ok all you NCAA guru's...who's this years Butler / UNI???

I'm going with Old Dominion University...leading rebounding team in the nation!

As much as I hate them i could honestly see Colorado being a sleeper ONLY IF Higgins and Burk are on like they have been. Without them Colorado is garbageeeee.

That's an interesting statistic.

As far as sleepers, I'm not good a picking that, but I would be surprised if a Butler-type team makes to to the Final 4. Teams making a splash might be Utah St, Kansas St,

I do think the following teams are vulnerable to an early exit:

Texas, BYU, Syracuse, Pitt, San Diego St., Louisville,

I like Belmont, Oakland, and Old Dominion.

If Chris Wright comes back, Georgetown. They will likely be a 5 or 6 seed.

If he doesn't, St. Johns.

ISU baby! play in the play-in game and then beating the #1 seed! or maybe thats just my dream

I forgot about that Oakland team! They had some nice wins early and I believe they're led by a group of seniors. Good call.

Murray State

Butler this year with Howard leading the charge.

No one from the Big East, I can see that entire conference being out of the tournament before the sweet 16. Of course with 11 teams getting in, odds are one or two will make it that far. I do like Notre Dame, but the fact they rely so heavily on 3's scares me.

K State and colorado are two teams that could either lose to a lower seed in the first round or make it to the elite 8. Those teams will go as far as Pullen and Burks can take them.

I don't think that you can pick a sleeper until the bracket comes out. It is just as much about the match-ups as the teams. Yes, only a couple people in the country had UNI beating Kansas but a lot of runs had to do with the types and styles of the teams.

Probably not much of a sleeper, but I think A&M will have a good tourney this year (great team Defense & rebounding). They made Mizzou look terrible yesterday. We'll see how they do against Texas tonight.

Gottlieb is high on Belmont too, but I don't know much about them.
