I realize this isn't exactly a "Sahuarita issue," but the NCAA Tourney is a fun event that everyone can enjoy. The Madness begins tomorrow, but it's never too soon to start debating who will be the last team standing.
Will it be the local favorite (I'm assuming, UA is the local favorite, but maybe Sahuaritans' loyalties lie elsewhere)? Or how about the top seeds, Duke, Villanova, Memphis and UConn? Does defending champ North Carolina have a chance (disclaimer: UNC is my team, although I'm not sure they have what it takes this year)? Or will it be someone else altogether? Let the prognostication begin, and let it continue throughout the tournament as we revise our brackets when our champ loses in the first round!
Unfortunately I chose the #15 seed Winthrop to win it all. They almost pulled it off... okay, so my picks weren't that wild. I chose Duke, Gonzaga, North Carolina and Villanova for the Final Four, with 'Nova taking it all. Oh, and did I mention I'm notoriously bad at this stuff?
It will be Duke and Syracuse as the last teams standing.
