NCAA Sweet 16

Here are 8 picks for the Sweet 16:

Northern Iowa vs. Michigan State

Let’s go with Michigan State here. They seem to know what they’re doing, and will win again for an Elite 8 appearance.

Tennessee vs. Ohio State

Ohio State has been a consistent team throughout the year. They will easily beat Tennessee.

Syracuse vs. Butler

The Orange will have a tough game here, but will come out on top. Butler is a legitimate opponent.

Xavier vs. Kansas State

Kansas State will have an easy win. Xavier will contend at the beginning, but will fall behind late.

Kentucky vs. Cornell

Everyone’s rooting Cornell, I know.  But realistically, Kentucky will win this game. They are simply too good.

West Virginia vs. Washington

Washington did well last week. But West Virginia will bowl over them.

Here are 8 picks for the Sweet 16:

Duke vs. Purdue

Hmmm. This one is actually  tough. But Duke will win in a close match up.

Baylor vs. St. Mary’s (Ca.)

I like Baylor’s chances. They are a pretty well-rounded team and will compete for a Final Four Spot.

Done! Now to watch the games and hope I do well.
