good thing about being on the top of the bracket is that you don't give a [censored] about the bottom. you only play one team from the bottom. let them beat the [censored] out of eachother and we'll take on the winner

Great bracket overall. I think we have the easiest path to the Final Four 
Some notables:
-Interesting possible 2nd round match up vs Xavier, being a former school Matta led.
-Interesting possible 3rd round match up against Tennessee, seeing as we beat them earlier in the season.
-I disagree with those hoping A&M beats up on Memphis. I would rather face Memphis in the Elite 8, seeing as A&M would literally have a home game playing in San Antonio.

I don't want A&M to win, but I think they will.

A&M could have some trouble playing Louisville in Lexington in the second round

I disagree.  After looking at the brackets a second time, tOSU was treated like we were the #1 overall seed. Florida actually got that distinction (going off last year, anyone?) but I think we have the easiest region. Lucky for us, if Acie Law is indeed the best PG in America, that we have the second best PG in America, Mike Conley, Jr. I have gotten to the point that I believe OSU is the best team in the country, and I am willing to take on all challengers. Gotta Love It!

I think Acie has an argument for national player of the year as well. I'd probably put Dominic James ahead of Conley at PG but Mike is a hell of a PG. I think we can match up with any team in this region or in the country but we got some good teams in this region and some interesting matchups. Never have I seen a lower seed like Louisville get so hooked up by playing in Lexington or the 3 seed basically getting a game in their home state.
