Summary: 

I understand how difficult it is to predict winners, and if you had said that
your predictions were based on personal preference, I would have smiled and
gone on. However, "strengths and weaknesses"??!!.

Maryland beating Michigan?????? I just watched maryland squeeze by Miami
of Ohio in overtime. There is no chance that maryland will get close to
Michigan, and you may personally remind me to eat these words if this was
to happen.

The only other pick that levelled me was UNLV beating St. John's, and then
going on to win the region. Tarkanian has never won more than one tournament
game a year since he coached at Long Beach St. UNLV simply does not have the
consistency (or the defense) to survive in the tournament.

But just so I don't appear as critic, I'll go out on a limb myself.

My top teams:  GEORGETOWN (surprise!!!!!)
               MICHIGAN
               ST. JOHN'S
               OKLAHOMA
               MEMPHIS STATE

Others:        SYRACUSE
               N.C STATE (purely on coaching)
               NORTH CAROLINA  (ditto)
               ILLINOIS
               SOUTHERN METHODIST

Fairly safe to say the national champion is listed above.

Opinions (raging or otherwise) encouraged.
