You have to register but it's free. The cool thing is that they track your results and show what percentile your handicapping skills rate. It's a lot of fun.

I think I'll be stubborn/stupid and pick Oklahoma St. to win it all like I did last year, then again, maybe I won't.

As for sleepers, keep your eye on Texas Tech and Pacific.

And stop dissing the Pac-10, skankeagles, Arizona might just crash the Final Four.

That would be "swankeagles" to you, Sac.

Sac, I would love the Pac 10 to perform better than it does. I'm a huge Pac 10 fan, but I'm also a realist. It is very weak this year. Stanford, USC, and UCLA all pretty much suck. That goes along with the PAC 10 teams that always suck, being Wash St, Oregon (well, they had some minor success recently) and Oregon St, Cal, and ASU.

So you have AZ and Washington. I don't think in the Pac 10 they play a tough enough schedule night in and night out to compete with the ACC or even the Big 12.

I don't think either gets past the sweet 16.

There's always 11th ranked (AP) Gonzaga.

I love me some Gonzaga. One of these days they will bust through to the Final Four.

John Stockton 4evah!
