Hearing Johnny Cash
So, What About This So-Called Final Four?
We've been keeping a couple of polls since the field of 65 was named on Sunday night...
1. Who'll win the Dance? Results: 30% UConn, 27% Other, 26% Duke, 10% Villanova and 6% Memphis
-- Which tells me that if you pick UConn or Duke in your pool and they cut down the nets you're still going to have to fill out a damn good bracket to win anything, but if you pick Memphis or 'Nova and they go the distance there's a pretty good chance you're in the cash.
2. Which 1st-round upset is most likely to occur? Results: 36% Wis.-Mil. over Oklahoma, 20% San Diego St. over Indiana, 18% Winthrop over Tennessee, 17% Southern Illinois over West Virginia and 9% Iona over LSU
-- Which tells me that twice as many people think Tennessee is going to lose to a 15 seed than think LSU is going to lose to a 13. How the Selection Committee screwed this up I do not know.
Now, for poll(s) #3, I want to figure out who the 2, 3 and 4 seeds are that people are picking for the Final Four, because right now I'm having a hard time not going with the four no. 1s. Of course, that would make me a wee girl. Anyway, vote in the polls and help a blogger out...
Bonus:Join the SBL hosts' bracket pool for blogging and podcasting bragging rights! Those entrants winning or losing by large margins will probably be discussed at length on internet radio.
